Wow! So many Club runners out on a dark and stormy night! Twenty-eight I think!
Normally a fast course. Wednesday night saw Peter 5th runner home. Nicola 3rd lady runner home.
Category firsts for: Peter, Nicola, Ian and Trevor.
Category second places for: Graham, Paul, Susan, Rachel, Tracy and Kate.
Janine 3rd in her category.
Peter missed his 2016 PB by 2 seconds – but he took over the MV45 Club record from Rob by 7 seconds.

Something slightly amiss with the results table – position 137 comes before 135 and 136. Position 146 comes before 141.
Very good club turnout on what was a pretty miserable evening. Notable performances from Peter Speake and Nic Reece. A very good run by Jan, not far off her 5 mile PB, and almost catching Holly. A comfortable 1st for Ian out of two MV75’s, plus Trevor as the sole representative of the MV80 category.
The results above are taken from the race results spreadsheet, which lists runners in finish order. That is the same as the order of gun times. The chip positions are taken from the order of chip times. These are correct, although still listed in gun time order.
