A lull but please be patient
I have an awful lot of things to squeeze on the site (and one or two things to do apart from websites) so bear with me.
This week has not been made any easier by the events at http://www.manxathletics.com/

Programme
I've just added a pdf copy of the programme for anyone not yet in possession of hard copy.
You can download it from www.parishwalk.com/2009/PW09prog.pdf
Its quite alarge file (6MB) so it would be helpful if you download a copy and save a copy to your PC or laptop rather than opening a new copy on serveral occasions. Thanks.
Please note, that I am not in anyway reponsible for the content so please do not contact me about the programme.

Last five years at an all time high
There have been 47 Parish Walks in the modern era. In case you had not previously noticed or read, there was no event in 1965 or 1966.
Taking each five year block of winning times within the most recent 45, the average winning time during the five years ending 2008 was 40 minutes faster than an other period:
1968
16:22:20
1973
