Race report and results over at the WFRA site
There was a good turnout for the Moel Siabod race which took place in Capel Curig. The weather was dry with sunny intervals and the summit was clear. Although there had been heavy rain the previous day the senior runners were still able to run through the river near the finish.
The race was won by Lloyd Taggart of Dark Peak in a good time of 49 minutes and 18 seconds. Craig Jones of Eryri was 2nd in 55.48 and Chris Idis of Keswick 3rd in 55.55. The ladies race was won by Jackie Lee of Eryri in a time of 62.18. Ruth Metcalfe of Eryri was 2nd in 65.58 and Sandra Rowlands of Clwydian 3rd in 73.32 (also 1st over 40)
