I've run couple of events with turnouts in the 30's but today at Sutton Manor was the lowest with 30 bang-on.
Brilliant single lapper that was quite challenging and great fun in the rain.

Beeston only had 150 finishers today (and looking at the results some very quick juniors!)

Weather was lovely up here. A bit warm perhaps but a few PBs for regulars so I think conditions were pretty good.

Hoping to actually run next week. Lots of volunteering of late!

report the time difference to the event team if it bothers you. There's a missed click from the timers probably. If you look in the results is the position above you in your time?

No it doesn't bother me. Its nowhere near a PB and not enough to fuss about.
I wonder if others had PBs as a result though.
In other news the 5k app was missing a race from a couple of weeks ago, until today when it magically reappeared

I had a discrepancy the other week, it didn't bother me at all as I had walked, however I did notify them on case it affected someone else.

Presumably because the slower participants tend towards 'fair weather running/walking' and are less inclined to go out when it's proper wet?
