Johnson’s Records before 2020 race
With the enclosure of the Leisure Centre fields and the new cycle path the course is back to pre 2017 length – pretty much exactly 6 miles. The original 1992 course started at the front of the LC where the present pedestrian traffic lights are – making that 10K. In 2009 and 2010 we had to go back onto the road over the hump-back bridge to finish due to the LC field being fenced in (before it was gated). So those two years were a bit over 10K.
I have included all people who have done sub 50 minutes, and very old people get recognised for suitably adjusted thresholds.

Most races run in sub 50: Women; Tracey, 4. Men; Chris, 10. Duncan may have done 10 if sub 50 in 1992 and 1993 and 2000 which was quite likely but my full results only go from 2002 (after taking over the handicapping from Dally). Tracey and Chris also have 3x sub 51, two of which were on the longer courses of 2009 and 2010.
