This year Gerry Mullen and Chas Steven completed their 27th Brampton to Carlisle road races, Gerry 27 in a row and Chas with just one absence last year due to injury. Incredible! Andy Henderson is not far behind with 24 Bramptons.
Karen Allen got within 8 seconds of the club women's Brampton record which has stood for 22 years, recording 67:13. Not only that, Julie Beveridge set the third fastest Calderglen women's time of all time with 68:28 and Joanne McEvoy gained her third entry into the Calderglen top ten with an 8th place spot. Well done to the ladies. Surely new records are on the cards for next year. I won't dwell on the men (no top ten records since 1998 - we need some young guns :-)).
