I would like to comment on the performance of James Baker. He has now won the last three Kings Head Canters in amazingly consistent times: 2007 - 15:51, 2008 - 15:50 and 2009 - 15:50! Very impressive running!!! Will he run 15;50 again next year?

David Bradford and the 'Canter for Sight' team of 34 runners completed the Kings Head Canter in 2009 to raise money for RP Fighting Blindness.
