Great North Run 2014

The Great North Run completed a special year this Sunday, its one millionth finisher!  Several Joggers were there.

Here are the results I have:

DUNCAN BLACKBURN.     01:55:09

MICHAEL DEE.                02:43:56

DAVE ENGLISH               01:53:16

DEBORAH LOCKE.           02:15:21

SARAH JANE LOCKE        02:04:03

FIONA TURTON               02:15:47

It was an unexpectedly warm day, dry with a bit of a tail wind.  I did hear from someone that the One Millionth finisher was somewhere around 2:20, so sadly nearly all Joggers were too quick to have stood a chance of being that lucky individual.

As ever, I would strongly recommend this race to all Joggers. It is one of the largest half-marathons in the world, with the most fabulous atmosphere for all to enjoy.

Please indulge my including a few of my photos here.

Congratulations to all runners
