Personal bests for Stuart Pearson and Julie Delahaye-Slater at the Wombourne Half.
Stuart Pearson was 36th in 1.25.41 and Julie Delahaye-Slater was tenth in her category with 1.43.41. There seems to be a rather intriguing statement about the race on the website:
“We are determined to continue to improve the event and take on board your comments and will certainly clarify the race distance going forwards for 2011. The route was checked several times (and also changed a number of times to meet the requirements of the Authorities).
- Can we say hand on heart that it was precise? In all honesty – No.
- Can we say everyone ran the same route? – Yes.
- Can we say that GPS signals get “lost” under tree cover etc? – Yes!
- Will we double check the route for next year – Absolutely!”
