Thank you guys for the expert organisation and running of the event. We (Army) intend to spread the word and try and ensure we have more teams for the next one, however I am sure you are all aware that with the current situation abroad, we have a different direction of focus. Meanwhile my unit will certainly be competing next year, hopefully more convincingly.
Just like to echo the sentiments about this year. Another great weekend in Wooler with a bit of a hill walk thrown in! I find that remembering it this way helps to numb the pain!! Many thanks to all the back stage crew and marshalls. The Walking Dead (team 55 this year) managed to get another hour off our best and join the sub 7 club so deffo a year to remember for us!
The date of this years event had to be moved from the provisional 16th June due to the passage of the Olympic Flame through our region.
For those potential competitiors who want to know if they (at work) would be affected by the route of the flame then I've checked it and it will be as follows:
Friday 22nd - Windemere, Lancaster and Blackpool
Saturday 23rd - Blackpool, Preston, Burnley, Rochdale and Bury
Sunday 24th - Manchester, Oldham, Huddersfield, Bradford, Skipton and Leeds.
Lets just think about things before we go saying reckless things like that!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any idea when the results from this years race are likely to be posted
thanks
