Men's V40 5000m club record broken (and broken again)

Many congratulations to Nick Torry, who broke the men's V40 5000m club record twice in three days.

Nick ran 14:25:71 in the British Athletics League on 20 August, breaking his own V40 club record of 15:07:81 set on 10 June. Not content to put his feet up and relax after such a fine performance, he followed this up with a Herculean 14:23:70 at the Hercules Wimbledon 5000m festival on 23 August. 

This puts Nick top of the UK rankings for V40 men over this distance in 2017 so far, with few V40 men having run faster in recent years.  I am sure you will join me in congratulating Nick on such fine performances.
