RICHARD Jordan, of Stowmarket Striders, finished fifth overall at the annual Burnham Beeches Half-Marathon, staged in Buckinghamshire last weekend.

Jordan clocked 1hr 15mins 22secs, which was good enough to secure him the top over-50 veteran award. The race was won by Gateshead's Alan Buckley in a swift 1.09.17. Last month, Jordan confirmed his good form by registering 34mins 56secs at the Capital 10K Run in Hyde Park, London.
