Alan Renville’s Swanston course offered a scenic loop around Allermuir hill with some varied terrain. Choosing a less muddy day and a bit of luck with cow traffic may have played a small part in results.
Overall average run times slightly quicker than expected. 49 runners within +/- 3 minutes of their predicted time, an improvement on Holyrood. Gordon Eadie making the Handicapper look good by running spot on his predicted time; unfortunately that gets you no prizes.
