A glorious summers evening drew a relatively large turnout for this years event. 28 runners took to the start line with handicaps ranging from scratch through to 18 minutes. It was a scratch runner that conquered the revised 5 mile course as Fiona Murphy crossed the finish line marginally ahead of guest runner Troy Conner. 2nd home was last years winner, Johnny Lister with the ever improving Jack Melia taking the final podium spot.
The shortened 5 mile course along the same canal towpath route proved popular with both organisers, marshals and runners so it's intended to keep this going forward. All involved enjoyed refreshments at the track afterwards where Fiona was awarded with the winners trophy.

My thanks to all who helped make the event a success.
