Britton takes victory in Edinburgh

Fionnuala Britton won the Great Edinburgh Cross Country race with another brilliant performance today.

Britton's time of 20:40 was 16 seconds quicker than runner-up Adrienne Herzog, with a late slip by the Irish athlete providing a scare, but she recovered to comfortably secure victory.

Mattie Suver was third and there was another encouraging performance by Linda Byrne who finished sixth.

Byrne's run was of the highest quality and was only inches behind European Cross Country silver medallist Anna Dulce Felix of Portugal, who placed fifth.

Both Britton and Byrne were also part of the victorious European team that took overall team victory ahead of Great Britain & Northern Ireland and USA.

Both athletes will compete at the IAAF Antrim Cross Country next Saturday.
