RR10 Race 9, Whiteshute Ridge, Winchester

It was Winchester's turn to host our RR10 on Wednesday evening amidst the heavy rain showers and forecasts of thunder and lightening that the day threw at us. Luckily for everyone the rain stopped just after 5pm and the sun moved in to give us a lovely evening for marshalling and good but slippy conditions for the runners on the course.

Numbers were well below the other races and even 40 people less than our last race, not surprising due to the weather conditions.

40 WADAC members came and helped with the marshalling, providing delicious cakes for the runners and scanning of finishing tokens. Thank you to everyone that came to help, it really is very much appreciated, as these races could not take place without your help. Particular mention must go to Sarah Witt for excellent mapping and along with Mark Craven being a lead marshal, John Mills for organising marshal parking and Kevin Frisby with his team for runners parking and signs. Great job everyone.

The last race of the season is Wednesday 16th August at Hursley IBM, 7pm. Please come and have your last blast of the RR10 season. Our ladies team is currently 1st (by 1 point) and our men's team is 2nd! There is also a bar at the end of this race that we are very welcome to use!

See you there.
