- It was great to see some new runners, especially our junior runners Rosie, Charles and Emma. I hope you enjoyed it and maybe you can go even faster next time.Well done to Julian Hehir who won on his debut appearance. It was a close race with Paul Skip just 10 seconds behind. It will be interesting to see whether Paul can reclaim 1st spot by the end of the series.
It was one of our largest turnouts for many years with a record 10 Super Vets, who also produced some excellent times. If this group keeps growing we may have to consider a super super vet category.
Next week there is the chance to win some"Self Transcendence Points"If you beat your time
Improvement >0.0 sec = 1 point
Improvement > 10 seconds = 2 points
Improvement > 20 seconds = 3 points.

It should be noted that his time would have been 2 minutes quicker, but he went off course whilst out in front. 2nd place and 1st Vet 40 was Kevin Hennessy of St Clare's. 3rd overall and first V50 was Alan Roberts of Vale of Aylesbury.
1st Women to finish was Chloe Ridewood (Abingdon A) - her time of 19.53 was good enough for fourth overall. 2nd Woman and first VW50 was Gwyneth Hueter in a time of 21.50. Third women and first in category (senior women) was Lisa Sammons of Oxford City.
Thanks for coming along.
We had some issues with marking the boundaries of the course, due to our regular post putter up not being there. But, normal service will be resumed next race on May 25th. 2 miles
