Thanks to Jackie for the following report:
52 runners including 5 guests. It was good to see so many members there, even if we don’t always know if we’re coming or going!!
At one point it became rather manic at the finish line, as 5 or 6 runners crossed the line at the same time as a truck. If anyone has any queries about the results between position 25, Rachel, and position 35, Amarjit, please let me know.
Thanks Jackie
