2016 Race – 7th February 2016
2015 Race – 10th January 2015
Britain was being buffeting by winds this day and there was the odd “flurry” of white passing by. 11 lined up for the race with a number of cheer leaders along the course. The white stuff came in near the end to help with the “enjoyment”. Andrew Blenshard lead the way and came home to win in 44.00 – followed by father Phil in 46.45. The Baums had a close battle with Jane (47.10) just beating Gary (47.11). The new clockwise route was taken and most went the right way though Steve Tinworth went over a bridge and presumably back over one somewhere ! Well done to all
2014 RACE – 8th February
Probably the wettest run ever. Not many people seen on the route – no idea what they must have thought of the five battling round. Well done to Gary, Alex, Al, Ron and John – and thanks to the support teams of Jane, Linda and Margery
