Josh Guilmant takes 5K time trial record

Thursday 3rd September 2009

On Saturday 29th August, Josh ran 15:08 to take the top spot in the all-time Hove Park 5K time trial records. This eclipses Ben Warren’s long-standing time by 4 seconds and knocks 14 seconds off Josh’s previous best on this course. What made this all the more remarkable was the solo nature of the run (second and third were a full three minutes behind). Phoenix now has an enviable record in the time trials with three athletes in the top 10 times. Josh is first, Matt Barrie is fifth and Dave Carter is ninth. In addition a glance at the age-group lists show Josh (25-29), Matt Barrie (15-19) and Andrew Haig (60-64) in first place with Flo Ray (20-24), Max Pickard (JM14), Dave Carter (30-34), Phil Hampshire (50-54) and Bob Novis (55-59) in second place.
