Results of Rowbotham's Round Rotherham

Saturday 20th October, 2018

Take me to the Round Rotherham page, RHAC page, Henry's Home Page

This page has the updated relay team membership as advised by team managers

2018 Preliminary results appear on the SiEntries/Sportident website

For the latter, Select Results on the Round Rotherham Run line (20 Oct). For both, select the Relay or Solo course. Usually leave category blank (or All)

   Ben Hague and Karen Nash  (her blog is below)


Ben took 17 minutes (bar 2 seconds) off Chris Parkes' long standing record, previously tested by 2 elite ultra-runners..
Kerry Booth was last Rotherham winner.
First lady was the FV50 Karen Nash, one of our regulars.

In the individual, there were 165 participants, 30 of whom were ladies. The 26 relay teams involved 187 participants (taking into account multiple stage runs), 94 run by ladies.
So: there were more people doing the relay than the individual
228 men, 124 women, if my calculation is correct. i.e. 35% female representation (virtually 50:50 in the relay).

Thank you all for coming, and a special thanks to all our officials and helpers

Several links currently go to holding pages

Comprehensive results progressively being added

Full individual results , Leaders, Team,
Relay, Completions, Entry List (pre-entries), Reports/Pictures

Note: to help protect against Spam, most e-mail addresses given have NOT inserted after the @ sign; human respondents should remove the 3 extra characters

Name spellings, affiliations etc in the archive and the linked results listings available from this page are based on the archive.  In general, the archive uses the spelling first used by a participant, unless the name change is permanent (e.g. when a lady marries), to avoid risk of confusion between people with similar names, e.g. Steve Walker, Steven Walker and Stephen Walker. For doppelgangers (e.g. the two Stephen Walker's who have appeared) identification text may be added to the name.    Please let me know if you are aware of any errors, to  Henry Marston   

Basic results appear on the SiEntries website (click on Round Rotherham on Previous Results quick link on the left). Now available. Additional information (completions, veteran status, etc) is to be added on this page. Split times are shown; graphical and more digestible tabular analysis is provided from this page.

Warning: In the results linked from this page, club membership is based on the entry for the archive, where for identification purposes a returning entrant who does not give a club affiliation retains previous affiliation (helping to distinguish doppelgangers). Accordingly, there will be individuals who have left a club but not declared a new club.  Here you will be listed with affiliation to your last known club.  In most cases, this is inconsequential, but may affect the Team Result. If you are listed for a team and feel you should not be, contact me  Henry Marston and I can make adjustments.

Full results (includes retirements)  Note: Club membership is shown for identification purposes, as this listing is primarily for the archive and is not used for calculating team results. Your club may be different from that recorded in the 'Official' results.  If you were a club member in previous years, but are now unattached, your affiliation to your former club may persist in this listing, if only to help distinguish doppelgangers.  Changes between original entry and race day may not be picked up..

10-completions Award

In line with a tradition in LDWA events, an award has been introduced for completing the event 10 times. Awards have been made to Roy Varo†, Henry Marston, Dave Carratt, Kerry Booth, Mick Cochrane, George Kay, Terry Griffiths†, Andrew West, Chris Sanders, David Fox, Mick Marsters, Brian Harney, Ian O'Mara, Tom Hughes, Bob Berzins, Peter Simpson, Percy Wellor, Martyn Gaynor, Barry Harrison, David Keward, Michael Collins, Kevin Uzzell, Malcolm Coles, Philip Gwilliam, John Cunnane, Philip Elliot, Alan Yates, Julian Brown, David Shepherd, Jim Fulton, Philip Haigh, Brian Harwood, Philip Musson, Paul Sorensen, John Clarke, John Hughes, Barrie Bedford, Caroline Boyd, Shirley Hume, David Oxley, Kevin Marshall, David Egan, Marla Howard-Cutts, Pat Rooney, Dave Roberts, Alison Brind, Mike Elwell, Chris Hume, Jane Matthews, John Vernon, Les Hill, Steve Garlick, Bill Watson, Martin Dietrich, Nick Ham, Kevin Doyle, Sharon Gaytor, Lee Carratt, Judith Webb, Nigel Coates and Elaine Dee

Additional awards were made this year to 4 more, Jeremy Nottingham, Pam Baird, David Devine and Martin Payne (subject to rechecking).  

That's a total of 65!
 

20-completions Award

Roy Varo, Henry Marston, Andrew West, Terry Griffiths†, Kerry Booth, Chris Sanders and Tom Hughes have been presented with an award for reaching 20 completions (7 recipients).

Additional awards were made this year to 0 more:   Total now 9

The awards are based on my records; please let me know if there is an error (contact information below). Names get spelled differently in different years (Steve or Stephen), ladies marry, and certain names have been duplicated, easy when there were two Nigel Robinson's in one year, more difficult when there were John White's in different years, from different clubs (which is not decisive) but different DOB (which usually is). We have had 2 participants with the same name, same DOB, fortunately in the same year! ;

Retirements are included with main results 


Subject to re-scrutiny of affiliation / team membership  tbc

First Team: RHAC, Ben Hague (c), Scott Williams (r) and Richard Parker (l), with Sharon in the background

Club membership is based on the entry for the archive, where for identification purposes a returning entrant who does not give a club affiliation retains previous affiliation (helping to distinguish doppelgangers). Accordingly, there may be individuals who have left a club but are here listed as a team member for that club.  If you are listed for a team and feel you should not be, contact me  Henry Marston and I can make adjustments.
