Aaaaaand that’s a wrap….our marking/sweep team are in and we’d like to thank all the fantastic runners, their support and the absolutely brilliant volunteer team for a marvellous day spent running and celebrating the beautiful Stort River.

In no particular order, many thanks to Will Everitt, Tom Sheffle and Davo Davidson our marking/sweep team. Joe Fischr, Jon Panter at CP3. Colin and Glenda Jackson and Kieron Davies at CP 2/4. Fumiaki Imamura, Eloise Brame and Simon Burcham at CP1/5. Hayley Coles and Gina Shaw keeping you all topped up with hot drinks and biscuits. Jason Fabien, general dogsbody. Maxine Lock registration, timing and event medic. Ben Roake our roving photographer. And of course three cheers for the beardiest Race Director that ever was, Lindley.

See you all next year. In fact entries for the 2026 running are open and available here….
