Well done everyone, looks like we got lucky with the weather as it hammers it down outside my window as I write this.
Reports from runners to Graeme Lee please for OTSL, but here’s some Highlight stats:
Team 41
44th 8:53:44
Team 42
74th 10:01:53
At 1:10:09 between them, that is actually the closest timewise the two teams have ever been!
Best overall run (position) was Steve Whalley and Martin Bayliss who finished 26th on Leg 3; closest to Jeff’s renowned predictions were Brian Hutson and Nige Thomas, who finished Leg 4 just 2 minutes and 2 seconds outside what I thought they’d do; but club Kudos goes to Alice Buttle and Sarah Brewer, who have set a new record for Team Purple on Leg 5 – their 80:27 destroying the 89:45 which has stood since 2015!
Steve and Zena Whalley ran their first CDW Relay (but not their last…!) and Mick Lancaster became the second person to complete the full set of all 6 legs; whilst Giles Bailey, Paul Elliott and Rebecca Johnstone can join that club next year…
Mark your diary – May 14th 2023…you know you want to…
Thanks,
Jeff
