Steven Hall Wins The Runningtree Series 2009!

Congratulations to Steven Hall for being the overall winner of the Series. Steven started off with a 5th place at the Sway 5 and finished with an 18th place in the Christmas 10K against a much stronger field. He won by only accumilating 45 points. Well done!

Hayley Payne was the winning lady on 499 points after Reading runner, Jaqueline Smith who was leading the ladies prior to the Christmas 10k, did not finish the last race.
New Forest Runner, Andy Phimister was second male with a total of 121 points and Brian Baker third on 158 points.
Second lady was Jenny Simmonds with 535 points and Ann Buckett 733 points. The Series appears to be capturing interest with 30 runners completing the Series this year - up by 20!

Plans for a presentation dinner are being finalised and the winners will be notified shortly with details.
We hope to confirm race dates for 2010 and will publish the Multi Race entry form in early January.

PS. Sorry for the delay in publishing the final table but this was caused by some problems with the results for the Christmas 10K and my computer!!! If you notice any errors etc., please contact Keith at ke_ellard@lineone.net.

Each competitor is awarded a point in accordance with their finishing position in each race. For example, the race winner will receive one point and the runner who finishes 100th will get 100 points. The runner with the least points accumilated over the whole series will be the overall winner. To qualify, runners must complete all 5 races. In the event of a tie, the committee will decide a winner, based on finishing times and if necessary, age related performance. The ladies prize will be awarded using the same criteria.

Andrew Jennings kept his grip on top spot with an 11th place finish in the Christmas Pudding Race at Burton – the fifth and final race, to take the Runningtree Series 2008. Runner up, Micheal McCabe gallantly finished in 38th place but there was not going to be any slip ups by Andrew on this occasion! Ross Wayne consolidated his third place by finishing 65th.

Christine Hart-Burke finished 345th but it was enough to ensure that she won the Ladies title. Zodwa Chasokela was the second lady to complete the series with a 401st place finish.

Overall, only 10 runners completed all 5 races! Congratulations to them and commiserations to those who tried but were prevented from completing the series by injury or other commitments. We look forward to next years' series which is now in the planning stage!
