Ben Brown, the winner ran the 2nd fastest ever at Southsea only 19 secs behind England's Alex Teuten. Michael Rae and Dave Rees-Whelan had the 7th and 9th best age-graded times. I'm not sure if Don Powell in 37th place could possibly be the Slade drummer!!!!!?? He's certainly in the right age group aged 75.

Ian Briscoe, Fiona Cfb, Becci Knowles, Katherine Newell (352 times!!), Paul Daniel Norris, Damien O'Neill, Jason Smith were among the volunteers some of whom were saving themselves for Gosport. I can't think why Nikki Harris and Rich Harris couldn't have spared the time to help or run on Saturday!!!!!!!
Our other newly married couple ran together, Keith Caunt and Claire Caunt. It was also great to see Susie Tebbutt back again running with her friend Ruby.
