Race organised by Sri Chinmoy A.C. Pictures of the Self Transcendence Races can be found in our Gallery
The last race in the self transcendence race series was an easy victory for Zak Bouchenka running for his chosen charity, Islamic Relief in a time of 9.35. He finished 19 seconds ahead of Ferranti's Adam Priestley. City of Edinburgh's Steve Wales took 3rd place just dipping under the 10 minute barrier.
New Zealand marathon runner internationalist Rebecca Moore went through the first mile in 5.19 and maintained excellent form to finish in 7th place overall in 10.44 (the fastest ladies 2 mile time at the Meadows this summer). Janet Dunbar had a good run to come in 2nd F in 11.20.
Trevor Ridely returned to winning ways to take 1st o50. Alec Agnew took 2nd o50 and well known Trotter Dick Wall was delighted with his 3rd place MV50 medal. Keith Weston, Ferranti took the 1st MV60 in 11.54.
And it seems we'll be saying goodbye to Meadows regular, City of Edinburgh's Francis Hooton who will be hanging up his racing shoes at the end of the year.
