Results from TF VK-6 in Fossánes this morning

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

Despite a north-easterly wind of around 15 m/s, cold and showers, some 60 loyal runners turned out for round 6 of the TF Winter Series, which was held in Fossánes. It should also be said that several other wind directions are better than a north-easterly in Fossánes. The terrain on the route was a mix of asphalt, fields and some rough grazing land, making it a very tough and challenging route. Each lap is just under two kilometres: first a good half kilometre up past the school and northwards uphill across fields and rough ground until you reached Múlavegur, and then just under 1.5 kilometres on asphalt southwards along Múlavegur, down onto Fossávegur and north into the punishing north-easterly to the finish. The adults had to run four laps, while the children ran two laps.

In the men’s race it was once again Marnar Djurhuus who won comfortably ahead of Sam Vang and Eirikur Hansen. With today’s result Sam moves up to second place in the overall standings.

In the women’s race Rebekka Fuglø again beat Rigmor N. Arge today. Rebekka’s win means that she overtakes Rigmor in the overall standings, but it is still close. With her third place today, Tórvør Østerø Vang secured third place overall.

Hallur Holm won the veterans’ category again today. In the next places came Jóhan M. Jacobsen and Albert Johansen. With the win Hallur takes the lead in the veterans’ category and sends Jóhan down to second place.

In the women veterans’ category Ann Thomsen won her fifth victory today, which already secures her the overall win. Astrid Joensen, second today, secures second place overall. Number 3 was Anna Maria Seloy, who with this moves into third place overall.

Jens R. Weihe, who has already won overall, did not take part today, so a new winner had to be found in the super veterans’ category. That turned out to be Jóannes Ortind, who won ahead of Gunnar Simonsen and Regin Jóanesarson. With today’s win Jóannes moves ahead of Gunnar in the overall standings, but Gunnar still has a chance to overtake Jóannes again.

There were three junior men today, and Marnar Djurhuus won ahead of Teitur Bjarnastein and Einar Gregersen. Rebekka Fuglø won the junior women’s category.

The girls had a new winner today: Karin Holm Simonsen, who won in a close contest with Maria Biskopstø. Number 3 today was Rutt Gregersen. Elin Kristina Ryan was unlucky and fell, and unfortunately did not complete her race today. Overall Maria is in the lead just ahead of Oddvør Josephsen, while Elin Kristina Ryan is best placed to take third place overall.

On his “home ground” in Fossánes, Gunnar Sivertsen took his sixth win of the winter in the boys’ category. Behind him came Rúni Skarðhamar and Steintór Egholm, who with today’s results move into second and third place overall.

After the race there was coffee and freshly baked waffles in the school in Fossánes while everyone waited for the medal ceremony. A big thank you goes to Hvannasund Municipality for its generous support.

The seventh and penultimate round of the TF Winter Series will be held in Suðuroy on Saturday 8 March.
