The last race was attended by 36 people, which included 3 guests. Unfortunately a number of runners didn’t realise that they had to turn back when they reached Alex. These included a guest, Lucy Marchi, who probably ran an extra mile in total. We’ve informed Alex that he will have to re-apply for the position of marshal next year and he may have to go on a training course.
