From Friday 5th to Thursday 11th June – Tha Sprunce (Route 1 Race 3)
At least two more races have been added to the calendar that will be counters in the DP 2020 TT Leagues. The Alport Watershed TT looks to be a proper outing.
The first race of Tha Sprunce series finished on Thursday evening when a number of runners dramatically improved their times from the previous week, including Sally Fawcett who beat her own women’s record. Andy Heyes’s blistering men’s record withstood the vagaries of the age category handicap and so he heads the table. I’m making a minor rule change which is that each race can be run at any time from Friday morning to Thursday evening. This means that George Yates currently leads Race 2, having “had a blast around Sprunce” on Friday. These are the Race 1 results…
I’m delighted that no less than 43 runners have completed Tha Sprunce, 28 of whom can claim a podium position in their age category. It was Willy Kitchen himself who declared that he is in the 95+ Kg category and nobody has questioned this!
