North Van places well in Marathon

THEY WERE
TIRED, exhausted and
in some cases cramped,
but 1,885 runners made
it across the finish line

in Vancouver’s 11th
annual International
Marathon.

And in the front of the
pack were two hardy souls

the North Shore could be
proud of: champion Stephen
Pomeroy and third place
Craig Knapton..

Pomeroy, 24, completed
the gruelling 26-mile test in
2:16.56, followed by Vic-
toria’s Peter Giannoudis at
2:23.49 and Knapton at
2:24.09.

the West End, he works for
North Vancouver City as a
planning technician.

The win wasn't an easy
one, even though Pomeroy
easily out-distanced the rest
of the field. “People kept
telling me that I was looking
good but I sure wasn't
feeling good,” he said. “I was
beginning to wonder if the

race was ever poing to end.”
Pomeroy had only run one
marathon before’ the
Vancouver International,
while Knapton counted the
weekend event as marathon
number five in his three-year
long distance career.

surprise third place title, the
Lynn Valley resident said he
