Event Report
2018 Kevin
and Jim’s Run.
2nd May Report
by John Gill
We met in Applegarth Car park Northallerton at 6.30 for a prompt 7.00 getaway
but disaster struck, the fair had arrived in town overnight and block our
exit route from the carpark. Kevin had to alter all the pace notes by hand
before we could set off. To complicate matters there were a few observation
questions on the route with prizes at the end.
We had a very enjoyable run to
the west of Northallerton ending up at the Buck Inn Thornton Watlass. Jim and
Kevin were out and about taking photographs at various vantage points. Angela
and I were last to leave and were some way behind, we followed the new
directions but went straight on at I think the third roundabout and got stuck
in the middle of the Fair!!
A little later on we came across a worried looking Kevin, he said “you were
last to set off and only three cars have passed me where are they all?” Happy
to report that in the end everyone made it to the book although at one point
one of our members was coming in the wrong direction towards me.
We had a good meal at the Buck and Kevin gave out the prizes, I cannot remember
who won though, let me know if you want your name up in lights!!
We held a raffle and the Buck donated £3 from the cost of each meal we raised
a very healthy £83 for our chosen Charity of the year.
