Tuesday 12-Jul-2011 at 7pm:  Striders 5k Handicap

The total of 60 runners was easily the largest field we've had in the history of the event, which was first run in 1987.  We have not had over 50 runners before.

Major thanks to Janet & David Redpath for organising the event.

Thanks to all of the marshals & helpers: Louise Dempster, Steve Martin, Carol Stynes, Angela Bradley, Steve Pickford, Anne & Les Hewitt, Michelle & Bill Bradley & Matthew, John Owen, Julia Coles, Claire Bursnoll, John Ramsdale.  Also, thanks to Barry Allman & Robin Greenwood who offered to give up their run to marshal if we were short of marshals.

Alison & Dillon were the trophy winners.  Fastest woman was Liz Whitfield, fastest man was Mike Welsby.
