This was the third Parwich Panoramic Five Fell Race (PP5) with the best turnout so far, 112 runners. There were 24 clubs represented and 34 non affiliated runners. The overall winner was Chris Nicoll from Derby Tri Club and he just missed the course record by 37 seconds. 28 ladies ran, with the leading lady, Jo Bednall coming in 42nd overall and 70 veterans participated: aged 40+. Four juniors ran, all finishing in the top 78% of the field, with the fastest coming in 28th position aged only 11!
“Best fell race”, “Great course and views”, “Best marked course” and “Friendliest marshalls” were some of the comments that have been made about this year’s race – a tremendous amount of work was put into last night’s events, so these words are very much appreciated.
The event is co-ordinated by Graham J, with a very supportive band of workers, who deliver, fetch, carry, marshal, photograph etc etc.. So big thanks to everyone, who helped, ran and supported this fabulous evening. (Below is Graham busy organising his “troops”!)
The evening also saw the running of the Junior Fell Race which is organised independently by David Denton: another great success. For those youngsters who would like to do more running, just check out his website for more local runs.
Finally a quick plug for next year’s PP5, which is provisionally booked for Tuesday 7th August 2012 – tbc.
