Results

Tonight, on a dry, breezy, slightly cool evening at just after 8pm, the first Arethusa Mile took place, comprised of two seperate waves of 12 runners. As the first wave was run the 2nd wave participants cheered the first wave home, and vice versa, which turned out to be an unforseen positive in the splitting of the entire assembled group. Everyone seemed happy and satisfied with the whole affair and it's certainly stirred the thoughts as to future occurrences. I'm delighted it all went smoothly and without a hitch.

A big shout out of thanks goes to Paul and Jo Sinton-Hewitt, Emma Wingate and David Rowe for their help in timing, registering and filming the run. I'd also like to thanks each runner who turned out and thanks to the spectators who cheered everyone home.

Don't forget of course to register your time here on the Marathon Talk page.
