Thanks to everyone who came today to a Saturday event that was unusual in several ways – courses restricted to running on paths (because of the presence of ground-nesting birds) and earlier start times.
Special thanks to Trina who stepped in to plan the event at very short notice when the scheduled venue became unavailable. Thanks also to Neil for running the timing and to Alex for successfully handling the entry paperwork despite a very blustery breeze threatening to send it all into the North Sea.

Another bumper turnout enjoying an ELO Saturday afternoon event in the sunshine. It was particularly good to see so many new faces and local families. We hope many of you will come to next month’s event at the beautiful Balgone estate near North Berwick on 30th May.
Special thanks today to our planner Alex who created courses to make best use of the woods and surrounding residential areas. And thanks also to the huge team of helpers making the event such a success.
