Hertford Charity Run 2011

There are places left if you'd like to run in the Herford Charity Run this year. You can still post an entry form but will need to pick up the number on the day. Details on www.thehertfordcharityrun.co.uk and the route is slightly different at the Letty Green end.

The amended route looks great, providing a loop around East End Green and Letty Green, thus avoiding the 2-way congestion along Cole Green Way at that point - though this has probably never been noticed by those who run faster than I do.

The Mercury did not include our article this morning, but we do still have places if you'd like to run on Sunday. We're promised fair weather so if you aren't up to running, I'm sure those pounding the roads and footpaths would appreciate some support on the route. If you were deterred by the incident of the locked gate last year - I now have the combination to unlock it and tested it yesterday to make sure I could open it!

Excellent race this morning. It was well organised, well marshalled and well routed. The sun on the back was hot though at least the snow of '08 missed us this year. Well done to all concerned in the planning and operation.

Lovely route and a beautiful day. Thank you to all marshalls, people at the school, those at the finish and everyone who cheered us on.

I did it for the first time this year and it was brilliant. Friendly atmosphere, well organised, lovely route, fantastic weather. If the organisers can guarantee just three of those things next year then I'll be back!

My first time also. I'm sure the weather contributed to the overall atmosphere but there is much to thank the organisers for. The little shot glass was very nice and lucozade at finish a big treat.

Thank you all for your kind comments. I felt the day went very well and hope everyone enjoyed it. I have posted a photo gallery on http://thehertfordcharityrun.co.uk/Photogallery2011.aspx Photos kindly supplied by Peter Ruffles who also marshalled for us.

Another £3,500 donated to the Ron Pickering Memorial Fund. Thank you to everyone who ran or helped out on the day - you're all stars! Photos of the presentation are on the website.
