THE UK’s top two endurance running clubs have committed to travelling to Guernsey for the 2010 KPMG Easter Festival.

LEE MERRIEN wrapped up the overall men’s Healthspan Easter Festival title yesterday then immediately set his sights on a sub-four-minute mile along Vazon.

THIRTY-THREE riders lined up in relatively calm conditions compared to those of the previous two days to race a 32-mile four-lap road race around the L’Eree circuit.

LEE MERRIEN bided his time before showing his class and pulling away to win the opening event of the 27th Easter Festival, the Healthspan 10k road race.

A DUTCH team will give an international feel to events at Foote’s Lane at the weekend when 120 visiting players take on local teams in the Guernsey Hockey Club’s annual Easter Festival.
