Race Start 2003

Race Start 2011

Race results are now available within the Results page (click the Results tab on the left).

Well done to everyone that completed the 5km course, especially the race winners: Ross Jones (1st Man 15:43), Louise Vallier (1st Woman 18:59), Sally Musson (1st Over 40 % Age Graded 86.68%), and the "East Hoathly 3" Team (179.63%).

It sounded like the race went really well, with excellent weather conditions resulting in some fast times. Ross's time is the quickest since 2000. Apologies for the delay in getting the results published. Hope to see you all next year on the August Bank Holiday Monday.
