UPDATE
I would like to say a massive thank you to everyone involved in making the day such a huge success. The event this year was especially close to our hearts as it was in memory of Megan’s childhood friend Bailey Wightman and a charity who supported both Bailey and his family.
The total raised for TCT is £4,067.50 with additional sponsor monies to be collected. Big thank you to all those who took part in both the 10k and the Mini you were all amazing and hope you all enjoyed it.
A special thanks to Jeff and Helen Reed whose help is invaluable and for both being awesome timers. Emergency Contact – Andy Coker, to all the brilliant Race Marshals, Paramedic – Carl Smith with NARS, Lead Quad – Shane Rasberry, Parking Co-ordinators, First Aiders, Water Stations, Registrars, Celina’s Taylor-Made Home Bakes, Peter and his Burger Van, Rafflers, Photographers, Baggage Attendant. Thank you also to Mick Powell – Race Adjudicator for his positive comments. David Marsham – Landowner (without his permission the event wouldn’t be possible), GSC Bar staff, committee members and all the helpers who worked tirelessly.
Many, many thanks to everyone who came, donated, supported and of course those who competed for raising such an awesome amount.
Also for all the many lovely compliments and constructive comments we have received which are really appreciated.
Look forward to seeing you all next year
