11th ANNUAL HARVEL 5

A record entry this year as we reached our race limit of 650 entries and over 600 finishers !  A lot of fast times again this year, not bad considering how muddy part of the course was again.

A big thank you to the police for ensuring the roads were traffic free and thanks to the marshals/helpers for their help and their support to the runners.  Also thanks to our local farmer for providing the parking field and the large tractor for the time clock ....There are many other people to thanks so please accept my apologies if I haven't mention you.

Not only will the the club be making donations to charities (Including The Royal London Society for the Blind) with some of the proceeds but I understand the Harvel WI made their organisation a nice surplus for their own funds selling tea, coffee and cakes.   (Harvel H3 doesn't ask for any contribution from the other Charities on the Green.)

Hope to see you all again next year. We will improve the traffic management and signage and marshalling to the car park etc.
