Paul Forbes breaks world M65 record at European Masters Champs – AW

GB finish championships strongly with record-breaking 800m success + full results from the World Road Running Championships

European Masters Championships, Italy, Pescara, September 21-October 1

Though they had a lead in the medal table over the early days, Great Britain had to settle to for a clear second behind hosts Italy. However, they were well clear of Europe’s usual powerhouse masters nation Germany.

Boosted by the usual strong showing of a host nation in the road events, Italy won 162 golds and 391 medals compared to Britain’s 108 and 278 and Germany’s 83 and 237.

The other top nations in the top ten with golds won in brackets were Spain (62), France (39), Finland (34), Poland (33), Sweden (23), Ireland (17) and Austria (16).

Britain did particularly well in the track events and especially in the 800m.

Former 1:45 man Paul Forbes was the star performer as he set a world M65 record of 2:13.74 while Zoe Doyle set a British W45 record of 2:14.71.

Forbes set his time with  a slower first lap of 67.2 and he won by over five seconds.

The previous world record was set by the great Canadian Earl Fee who ran 2:14.33 in Buffalo in 1995. Fee dominated his event for decades and he still holds the M70 and M90 world records.

The Scot who represented his nation three times in the Commonwealth Games in 1978, 1982 and 1986 – making the final in the latter two Games in Brisbane and Edinburgh –  remarkably ran his quickest 800m time, indoors or out, since he made his comeback as a Vet. According to Power of 10 it was his fastest time since 1986.

The British outdoor record was 2:14.67 from his World Masters win in Tampere last summer and earlier this year he won the World Masters Indoor 800m and 1500m titles in Torun, a feat he matched in Pescara.

Other two-lap winners were M35 Dave Proctor (1:56.04), M80 Victor Shirley (3:05.00), W50 Nikki Sturzaker (2:23.55), W75 Angela Copson (3:17.08), W80 Betty Stracey (5:11.78) and W85 Anne Martin (5:46.40) giving Britain eight golds.

Virginia Mitchell was second in the W60 race in a British record 2:30.91 while M60 Dave Clarke, M55 Adrian Haines and W75 Anne Dockery also gained silvers.

Mark Symes, who only made the final as a fastest loser, fell just 0.02 of a second short of winning M50 gold in third place even though he is a M55 in a few weeks and had a stroke at the start of the year.

For more detailed results over the whole championships read the updated report from last week here.

Allan Long won a 1.60/31.97 sprint double. The runner-up in each sprint Juhan Tennasilm won golds in the long and triple jumps

Unusually France’s Jean Louis Esnault took golds at 400m, 1500m and 10,000m and 200m hurdles but he did not contest the 5000m, that was impressively won by Martin Ford from team-mate Victor Shirley who also finished second in the 1500m to Esnault. Esnault was also absent in the 800m and there Shirley gained a narrow victory. Ford also won cross-country gold but then suffered a loss in the 10km to Ake Jonsson who he easily beat in the cross-country before regaining supremacy in the half-marathon.

Barry Ferguson, who has been winning hurdles medals for well over 30 years, gained another with a silver, missing out on gold by just 0.07 of a second to a younger athlete.
