Brampton to Carlisle 10
18th November 2012

 

Official Result

 Bob Wells  1.07.06 1st MV65, Club Best Time


 

The 61st edition of the Brampton-Carlisle 10 mile race broke with its traditional Saturday afternoon format and I suspect that it was the only race in the country on Sunday to get rain.  Proximity to the Scottish border also gave me as much difficuly understanding some runners' banter as I experienced in France. Although the overall organisation was a bit hit and miss, running conditions were not bad for mid November.
 
On-line entry and timing chips were introduced for this event last year (my first attempt) but the organisers had reverted to traditional methods this year. Running without a chip, I was 6 seconds faster than last year - 1:07:06 and 1st MV65. As this was the first time I had been faster in 2012 than 2011 at any distance I was well pleased.
