For confirmation the leg time is the chip time start to finish and finish time is time to gun, so in reality your time is the leg time - I couldn't imagine running a 2nd leg that's for sure!
Kick ? Kick ? Don't you mean scratch me with fully extended claws
Hope you are feeling better todaty Mitts. I still have a stiff leg. Mind you I did beat Richard W by around 5 minutes and he beat me at Buntingford (when I had a bad cold) so at leats normal service is resumed
Ah, Brooks, now it's my turn to get my excuse in. I had to drive to Sheffield on the day before, un-load the car, and then drive straight back. Didn't get to bed until 04:00.
Still, I accept that Buntingford was a glitch in an otherwise un-memorable running career so my watch time of 1:29:34 is a more accurate measure of my ability.
Mind you, I must have some sort of running reputation if Mitten finds it necessary to applaud the fact that you beat me. Doesn't she know that, excluding Buntingford, you ALWAYS beat me?
Sorry to hear that Mitts. Hope you get better soon. Actually I was running so badly I thought at about mile8, Mitten is going to come past me in a moment but you never did.
Of course I wasn't running THAT badly that it ever occured to me that Richard W might come past me
Richard - sounds a lame excuse to me. Its only 2 hours to Sheffield from Luton so can't be much more than anotther 30 minutes to you. Even if you say an hour (I guess you would go up the M11 / A14, it is bad planning to leave it so late you don't leave Sheffield until 1am !!!

Nooooo!
The person I thought I finished ahead of has a faster chip time...
I did come last
Thanks for clarification. Well done bootsie
As Bootsie says LN a long as you enjoyed it...and anyway you did it so well done
That's v. true Bootsie and Keith L. I did finish faster than I had thought so it doesn't really matter. I had fun and that's what's really important.
I'll stop sulking in a mo
Provisional results are now available at www.stalbansstriders.com
My chip time of 81.32 precisely matched my stop-watch time. So, no complaints there.
The 'gun to line' time was 82.20, proving once again how useless 'official' times are if you start well behind the line.
***Remembers to kick Brooks rather hard next time I see him***

Well done on beating RW though. I could not have continued after two of my club members passed me (no names or ages!!!)
