2010 saw the 55th Dovedale Dash and although chilly and a little soggy underfoot, it was a wonderfully sunny day. Parwich and Alsop were well represented, fielding 21 runners (including 5 friends) out of 1500 runners. Apologies that the photos are not as sharp as they could be, but the runners were just too fast and sorry if I have missed anyone out.
In the children’s race, Bethany was the first girl in the Under 10’s and Emily the first girl in the Under 8’s and Ben was one of the younger runners.
In the main race, Clive R, veteran, led the Parwich group in, followed by Sue P, Jacob (only 9) and then Graham J. Well done to the rest – Izzy, Seth, Nia, Thayer, Lexie, Reuben, Josh, Brian G, Jamie D, Mark W and the Linnell’s friends.
Next Year’s run is on Sunday 6th November!

David and Laura of Sportssunday sent us some more photos of the Dovedale Dash, but it seems easier to put their link here http://www.sportsunday.co.uk/portfolio132928.html rather than going through to select those relevant to our villages’ competitors.
Do look at the site as there are some excellent photos.
