Stowmarket Striders Friday 5

This must the the first year in many where it hasn't rained on our Friday 5 race. Numbers are certainly up with 345 finishers (2005: 282 finishers) being a 22% increase. The Striders represented the largest number of finishers totalling 65. Entries on the day accounted for 42% of all entries. Was the increase in numbers down to the good weather or the general greater attendance... no idea, but we hope that you all enjoyed the evening and the course. Should you have any comments regarding this race, please e-mail them to f5@stowmarketstriders.org.uk and we shall read every one.

Full results are details below with the prize winners shown at the bottom of this page.

One more kind request:- due to the short time we have to enter the names on the computer before the finishers come speeding in, please remember to mark whether you are male or female on the entry form. As a result we had a minor error with the results on the night that was quickly resolved. Many thanks.

Please remember, this race is not an official 5 miles in distance.
