Ravens 5k Handicap Event 2017

20 July 2017
16 brave Raven souls thought it would be a good idea to race around the  canals today relying on the handicapper to get a close finish. They  didn’t figure on Lyndon blitzing the field as he did to finish well  ahead of the pack. And Andrew  Ferguson didn’t do too bad either. Well done to all the other runners  too who kindly stuck to the script…..

25 May 2017
Another fine day for a 5k handicap race. Well it was if you were watching – warm work. 20 brave souls avoided every obstacle the small park could throw at them. Astrid, in her first Ravens 5K ran her heart out but missed the route slightly so, although finishing first, doesn’t qualify as the winner today. She did however have a storming run that would have made a complete mockery of my handicapping time. Officially first home, and in a great time was David Wilkinson.

As ever, many thanks to the marshals and helpers, without whom the race wouldn’t take part. Special mention to Rob who scouted the small park on his ‘Boris-Bike’ to check the lie of the land.
