The event formed part of the celebrations of the 40th anniversary year for the host club, York Knavesmire Harriers.

Although this road race is a fast, flat course, the conditions were considerably windy on Sunday so first club member home, Angela Thompson, was thrilled to post another personal best time of 1:37.13, knocking 1 min 47 secs off her previous best. She was the fifth lady in her age group.
