BMAF Cross Country Championships
PENNY Forse just missed out on a medal at the British Masters Athletic Federation Cross Country Championships in Oxford.
Competing in the Vet 55 age group in Banbury, Penny finished fourth in the 6km race in the category to finish as the 40th woman.
"It wasn't one of my best runs," said Penny. "If I'd felt as good as I have in recent races I think I'd have given the bronze medallist a bit of a scare - but there we go - running is like that!
"I had hoped it would be hilly and muddy, my favourite terrain but it was dead flat, boring and any mud was very superficial. A good spectator course, however."
