Once again the Poulters organised this prestige event held at the Guildhall, this year the weather was kind and the sun shone all morning, although it was a bit windy!

30 full Livery teams took part with an additional 11 Masters running in the Masters Qualifying Race.  As ever the runners were very competitive and the standard was high, we even had our first wheelchair participant.
