Phair and Stockdale claim 5K honours
The local City of Derry Spartans and Foyle Valley squads mopped up the bulk of the team medals on offer on a good night for road running.
The impressive Phair was involved in a great battle with Scott Rankin and defending champion Declan Reed in the men’s race on the quick Bay Road lap course, and got clear late on to post a fabulous winning 14 minutes and 47 seconds, with Rankin next on 14 minutes and 52 seconds and Reed on 15 minutes and 01 second.
It was fast and furious all the way and the spectators were treated to a tense battle between three top athletes.
