It was third time lucky for Hunts AC star Jamie Hall as he bagged big-race glory last Sunday.
Hall powered to victory in the St Neots Half Marathon to climb onto the top step of the podium after finishing as runner-up in the previous two years.
He knocked more than a minute off his personal best with a 1:10.20 performance and finished almost two minutes clear of the runner-up, Jonathan Bradford of Birchfield Harriers.
Hunts AC man Ty Farrer was the only other local runner in the top 10 as he crossed the line in 10th position in 1:15.55.
Simon Mead of Ramsey (13th in 1:16.44) and Chris Butterworth of host club Riverside Runners (20th, 1:18.09) were others to perform well.
Rivers enjoyed success in the women's race as Jo O'Regan triumphed in 1:21.00.
A new Hunts AC record was smashed by five minutes as Elaine Livera finished second in 1:22.41.
Sabrina Crothall also ran quicker than the previous club mark when finishing fourth in 1:23.07.
Hall (Senior Male), O'Regan (FV35) and Livera (Senior Female) all won age-group honours as well.
There was also a golden double for the irrepressible Huntingdon BRJ husband and wife, David and Annette Newton.
David triumphed in the MV70 section in 1:38.59 while Annette took the FV65 honours in 1:45.21.
