Comments:        
           
Well here we go again another event that turns out to be more than interesting! Paul Lowe wins in a fabulous record time but many athletes are off course, some due to 'false' tapes misleading them, some due to simply poor navigation by following others and some I'm sure just taking advantage of our good nature.
Anyway as you know by now I have not yet achieved the 'Wisdom of Solomon' so the best I could do was let the result stand unless it materially affected results in a particular category. If I disqualify everyone then that's another race where 50% of the field are under question, but I have no idea how many actually cut more of a corner than was indicated in the rules (i.e. you had to go to Hanging Stone and you had to enter Roseberry Common by the lower gate without crossing rough pasture or jumping walls/wire fences).I Hope everyone enjoyed the race and my apologies for those who were well out of order!

Rob: "Whilst collecting the tapes in I ran both routes (fairly fast) - when I doubled back on myself after touching the Hanging Stone I was 63 seconds faster than when I followed the traditional route and dropped down the steps! Also when I missed out the Hanging Stone altogether I was an additional 61 seconds faster, i.e. over 2 minutes quicker in total - hence the strange results. If you compare these results with the previous race you may get a good idea of who did what"
