Despite winner local legend James Baker taking 2 wrong turnings( did he listen to the pre-run brief?) he was first by some way. We weer joined by Dave Williams, local parkrun ambassador and Godfrey and Sarah Rhimes, two veteran local runners who have been running for decades. They all enjoyed the course.
There were many PBs as this is only event 3, but mentions go to Nick Lay, James Yorke, Keith Caunt, Warren Barker, Kim Stroud, Denise Courtney and Robert Duncan Clayton. Dave Rees-Whelan was only 1 sec outside his best here.
