Peakers' Stroll 2009

(Click on any picture on this page to see a larger version.)

Another great day out on the Peakers' Stroll with over 150 ent­ries (27 runners on the 25-mile route, first in with a time of 3hrs 8mins). Many new friends were made includ­ing Krishna Mahadevan who enjoyed him­self so much he is threat­en­ing to come to a con­cert and to do the tea and cakes.

The weather was kind on the day for those marshal­ling, some­times too much on the warm side for those on the Stroll, though one marsh­all had to keep mov­ing his gar­den chair so he could keep in the sun. He was soon put in order by his fel­low 1st tenor – see, no names mentioned.

Once again we were privileged to receive compli­ments on our organ­isation and the friend­liness of the event, so thanks again to our marsh­alls, kit­chen and rest­aur­ant staff and all oth­ers concerned.

Hopefully we will put on as good an event next year.

It must be said that many of the Strollers think that it is one of the best events about; let's hope we can keep it that way. I'm sure the scen­ery won't change.

Finally I have been instructed not to say any­thing about the time­keep­ers and cer­tif­icate writ­ers, so here goes, another excel­lent effort and every­thing worked out cor­rec­tly, even on Peak Forest time.

Thanks again to everyone,

Alan & Jeff
