The overall winner was Keiron Leeson of the Dursley Athletics Club.
Phil Lucker was runner up (just!) and Mark Curtiss. was placed
third. |

The first three ladies past the post were Emma Brown (right, with
Rotary President Adrian Dennis), Yvonne Cox and Rosina Rowland |

The increase in participants (10% more than 2006) and the success of
the event means that, after expenses, at least £1,000 will be
available to donate to Kidney Research UK. the chosen beneficiary. |

The Rotary and Running Clubs are very grateful to the many volunteers who assisted on the day, particularly the members of Thornbury
