GB internationals go head to head

Lee Garland ZIMBABWE’S Williard Chinhanhu’s fantastic 2007 63min. 46sec. half-marathon record could be under threat at the 31st staging of the summer half-marathon.

And it won’t be just from Guernsey’s all-time great Lee Merrien, who has confirmed his place on the start line for the Spearpoint ‘Father’s Day Half’, but the man who finished one place ahead of him at last month’s Virgin London Marathon.

Ben Moreau, who is currently rated as the UK’s number three marathon runner and who will run in the same GB team as Merrien at this summer’s European Championship marathon, has signed up for the annual coastal race.

Race director Paul Ingrouille is delighted.
