June Allen and Mark Newton took the honours at the Mersea 10 on Sunday. It was June's second win since her return from injury. She won the Dartford Half Marathon last month. Anyone who has seen Mark on Tuesday nights recently will know that he is flying at the moment and that this race victory was on the cards. Chris Burgoyne (2nd) and Paul Dobson (4th) joined Mark to take the team prize. Paul took the vet prize. 

June was joined by Vikki Curren and Liz Irvine in winning the ladies team prize. The Striders' men were also second team with Lee Martin, Stu Putt and Paul Anderson in the top twelve.

First Strider home in the 5 miler was young Nicholas Dobson who came in an excellent 15th. First Strider lady was Nicole Callaghan.
