A good start to the TF Winter Series

Machine-translated from Faroese and not yet reviewed. Read the original.

The TF Winter Series got under way this morning with a record turnout at Runt Agnið, where more than 80 runners took part. Conditions for running were good, although there was a light and slightly chilly northerly breeze. The finish area was decorated with a finish arch and was also free of cars, which both the runners and the organisers were very pleased with.

The record-sized field at Runt Agnið sets off this morning

In the men’s race, nobody could do anything about Marnar Djurhuus, who broke away from the rest straight away. Closest to him on the uphill were Sam Vang, Henry Olsen and Niels Poulsen, followed by Regin Thomsen, Jan Elmar Sørensen and Einar Gregersen, with Guttorm Sørensen a little further back. On the downhill the field began to break up. Sam settled comfortably into second place, and Henry got quite a way ahead of Regin, Jan Elmar and Einar, who were still running together along Rituvíkarvegur. Niels and Gutti were level at that point.

On the way down towards the roundabout things changed a little. Marnar was clearly in the lead, and Sam clearly second. Jan Elmar began to close in on Henry and had broken away from Einar. Niels and Gutti caught Regin, and, sure enough, the youngster Teitur Bjarnastein had run the downhill so well that he caught Niels, Gutti and Regin at the roundabout and pulled away from them to the finish. Jan Elmar managed to run up to Henry and pass him, but Henry hit back strongly and finished ahead of Jan Elmar. The top 10 men were Marnar, Sam, Henry, Jan Elmar, Einar, Teitur, Niels, Gutti, Regin and Petur Lamhauge.

Marnar won the men’s race comfortably at Runt Agnið…

In the women’s race, Rigmor N. Arge was the clear winner. Somewhat unexpectedly, Tórvør Ø. Vang came second, ahead of Rebekka Fuglø. Next came Astrid Joensen and Birna M. Joensen.

…and Rigmor won the women’s race just as comfortably

The leading men and women

In the junior men’s category the order was Marnar, Einar and Teitur, and in the junior women’s category Rebekka was the winner.

Junior men and women

Henry was the first veteran, ahead of Gutti and Egil Olsen. Among the women it was Astrid, Karin K. Petersen and Elisabeth Larsen.

The leading male and female veterans

Jens R. Weihe won the super-veteran category ahead of Jóannes Ortind and Gunnar Simonsen.

The super-veterans

The boys’ category was won by Gunnar Sivertsen ahead of Steintór Egholm and Rúni Skarðhamar. The girls’ category was won by Maria Biskopstø ahead of Oddvør Josephsen and Margit W. Frímundsdóttir. It must be mentioned here that Maria Biskopstø was born in 2002!!!

The leading boys and girls, who ran 5 km

All in all, everything went very well with the race, which was well organised from start to finish.

The next round of the TF Winter Series will be the trail run at Kerjar in Tórshavn, which takes place in two weeks’ time, i.e. Saturday 23 November at 13:00, and it will be organised by Hvirlan.
