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

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 - please advise me so that I can keep your record complete), 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 for the archive. 
Please let me, Henry Marston, know if you are aware of any errors or glitches such as missing links.

Preliminary results created by Fabian4 appear on the RaceTek website

Graphical and more digestible tabular analysis will be provided from this page (in progress).

Certificates for the Round Rotherham are available,. They can be provided as a .pdf for you to print out.  Let us know if you would like one by emailing 'Cert'. 
Basically I need your finish position (as shown in the Results taking into account joint positions) and name, as shown on my data source for the certificates: Full results

Andrew West†, Henry Marston and Kerry Booth 

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). 

Retirements are included with main results
