North Wales Half

ANDI CALLS THE TUNE WITH A QATAR SOLO

Stockport's Andi Jones, who leaves this month for a new job in Qatar, began his acclimatisation by winning the North Wales Half-Marathon in Conwy.

 With his future running likely to take in the dunes he felt at home on the two stretches of beach at the start and finish, and with six wins in the Snowdon race under his belt the climb up the Sychnant Pass was also relatively problem-free, but he still declared that it was the toughest "half" he had ever done.

 He finished over two minutes clear of second-place Jon Bowie, with the women's title going to Liverpool veteran Jenny Clague.
