Dash in the Dark

A few hardy souls braved the snow & ice to run the 'final' Dash in the Dark

Simon R had an excellent race to come 2nd (despite missing a short section of the course, for which he was forgiven by the organisers, probably because he was over 3 minutes ahead of the next finisher !)
Dave was 4th, and first MV40, on his first outing in the event (I must put better batteries in my head torch next time !!)
Huw was 5th and first MV50
Pete Roberts was first MV60, closely followed by John Morris

so a rather successful 'pot hunting' expedition for the Buckley boys.

The evening finished with Ben announcing another race, to be held on March 5th - see you all there.

Loads of Buckley runners turned out to race up the sea front, around a caravan park and back along a sea front. One Marshall shouting out to me with 600 metres to go "it's flat all the way now", great I thought, I might die in a minute!
