The Jamaica Masters athletics team to the Penn Relays capped off a fine performance at the relay carnival by grabbing 2nd place in the over 40 men’s 4×400 relay. The team of Daniel England, Chris Williams, Danny McFarlane and Christopher Grant did 3.25.60 behind SW Sprinters ‘A’ who clocked 3.24.97. The team might have won, but a mix-up which occurred with the registration of one of the original runners resulted in a last minute replacement having to be brought in. The 4×400 2nd place finish came following Friday’s ‘goldfest’ when the 4×100 metre relay team won the over 40 race in a record 43.58. This was after Chris Williams running in the 40-44 age division won the 100metres in 10.58 and Chris Faulknor did the same in the 50-54 category in 11.49. Speaking from his home in the US following his race, the ever popular Danny McFarlane says he was very pleased to have represented Jamaica in a masters event at the Penn Relays. “I had fun with the rest of the team and I will be doing my best to assist in raising the profile of masters athletics in Jamaica,” he said.
