Run from Llandudno’s West Shore to the former WW2 gun site and back over a challenging four-mile plus course including a section of the Great Orme, the special Christmas race attracted twenty-two club athletes, and statistician John Hatton compared the actual finishing times and the handicap time applied, against the ages, resulting in an percentage analysis of their performances.

It made for some very interesting comparison, with the initial race winner Steve Mason (47), the first man back, dropping down to fourth place overall, and previous second place runner Steve Poupart (45) 63.94%, moving to tenth with Karl Morris (40) 62.14%, who was third overall, dropping down to thirteenth place based on John’s age statistics.
