Last year we worked with a new finishing system aiming to give everybody a time and position and no queues at the finish. The latter hasn't quite worked. At some point a large queue did form, apologies for that. This means that at some point the timings became inaccurate and we stopped recording time at around the 700th finisher. We hope you kept your own time if that was important to you. Below you should find your position based on your name and number. Apologies for any misspellings - it is quite difficult to read some of your handwriting. You can enter your position on your finishing certificate.
