9th Race - Finishers: 502

The day started off overcast and fairly cool, which was ideal weather for the runners, but as the day progressed, the cloud burned off, and it turned into a lovely warm sunny day. Hundreds of people enjoying the weather and having picnics, as well as enjoying the culinary delights of the PSA refreshments tents. There were around 500 runners for the 10K, the highest number to date.

There were side-shows run by the Sixth Formers, which included, Paint your hair in England colours, Test your strength, Tombola, "Win a Bottle of Wine" game and more.

There was a Sports Massage facility for pre- and post-running massage. "Disco Dave" took to the stage before each race to give the runners a very entertaining Aerobic Warm-up, wearing his lovely disco suit.
