Fun Run 2003

The 2nd fun run on Friday 16th May 2003 looked like it would be a complete washout. There was torrential rain all Thursday night and during the day Friday. Luckily, it stopped just 30 minutes before the race was due to start, and despite this we still had 290 runners, almost 60 more than for the first event. It did make track conditions difficult, especially for our disabled entrants, but there were no injuries and everyone completed the course.

Again, thanks to all those who helped organise the run and provided refreshments and entertainment for the spectators. A special thanks to the marshals who did a tremendous job in difficult conditions and to Charlotte Stubbs (oldest resident of Dyke) who was asked to start this years fun run

Thanks also go to our sponsors (The Wishing Well Dyke, Chestnut Communications Ltd), without whom we would have much less profit, and the landowners for allowing us to use the paths across their land and cutting the grass along the course etc to make the race more enjoyable.
