Basildon marathon results

Tiptree's Alan Fisher triumphed ahead of Ilford's second-placed Nick Berrill to become the inaugural champion of the new town's 26.2-miler in 2hrs 44mins 22secs.

However, Engdahl, a long-distance specialist who does not belong to a club, was thrilled to slice three minutes off her personal best to finish as first woman home in the half-marathon.

After clocking little more than 1hr 29mins, she revealed: "I do a lot of my training around the hilly bits of Langdon Hills, so that part of the course was all right for me.

"It was a very nice run and I just felt good all the way."

Tyrone Berg, of Islington, was a comfortable winner from Chelmsford's Garon Heslop in the men's half-marathon.
