Foyle Valley Athletic Club’s Scott Rankin followed up his victory in last week’s Marty’s 5k by taking second place in the inaugural Springwell Crosscountry race run yesterday in the grounds of the University of Ulster campus in Coleraine.
Rankin’s time of 27.42 in the senior and master men’s five mile race was 25 seconds slower than winner Brendan Teer (East Down AC), the current Northern Ireland and Ulster Senior Crosscountry champion.
City of Derry AC’s Alan Bogle used his strength from his mountain running background to take third place in 28.01.
