Race Report

Dear Competitors,

It was good to see you all at our event, and even better to know that 45% of you had visited us in 1986, (for this meant we must have done something right last year). The weather was again kind to us although it was a bit greasy underfoot, and a little colder than last year. 

Last year we had a few problems in getting the final results out to you, but this year (as you may have noticed on the day) we were fully computerised thanks to Martin Gostick our Data Processing Manager. Therefore a lot of the typing and calculating has been eradicated leading to a speedier and more comprehensive set of results.

Special thanks this year must go to CB81 for radio cover throughout, Buxton Mountain Rescue for manning 4 checkpoints, St. Johns Ambulance for First Aid cover at the finish. Thanks must also go to our sponsors, the main one being Otter Controls Ltd. without whom

this event could not possibly occur as they provide most things (including the kitchen sink). Lastly, thanks to all competitors, you are the ones who make the event happen.

We are now into our 3rd year of organising the event, and would appreciate any comments you would like to make which could lead to improvements for next year, (Saturday 24th September 1988).

Yours sincerely,

Geoff Worsley, Derek Warrington, Helen Griffith, Dave Butler
