Great to see some huge turnouts from some schools - 29 from Abbeylane in the Primary competition was tremendous. 

I heard lots of compliments on the courses so well done to Chris Williamson for planning them.  Also a huge thank you to Ian Cooper for updating the map for us over the summer.  With 512 runs we could never have coped without our band of volunteers well done to you all.  If anyone would like to help at any of our events please just ask!

The next Saturday Series event is in 2 weeks at the English Institute of Sport on 5th October.
