Note: The 40-miler club page has also been updated to reflect this data.

Weather perfect (apart from the last 10 home getting soaked!), and the route cleared to a standard even better than 2006.

Notes:

  1. This year we did not ask if individuals would be walking or running. We decided that some of the "walkers" were actually running some of the route and so any times against them would be false if compared to the "record".  So this year we just gave them all the option of what time they would like to start.  Anyone running would generally go for later start times.
  2. All those with no finish time completed part of the 40-miles, either by planned intent (e.g. Tony Duckett who started at Bedworth) or because they retired part way round (place indicated by entry in Finish Time column).
  3. John Green led "The Journeymen" group from Coventry Freemans Guild on a sponsored walk from Kenilworth to Bubbenhall.  10 people took part, and between them raised a total of approximately £500 for various charities.

Notes:

  1. The G.U.T. "x2" group were a relay team of two people, handing over at Bubbenhall.  (G.U.T. = The Digestive Tract Cancer Support Group) 
  2. The G.U.T. 'Full Circle' group, completed the full 40 mile circuit as a relay. The G.U.T. 'Full Circle' group were some 17 in total, each walking part of the route in small groups of various numbers.  The teams comprised of cancer sufferers and carers and the day provided them with a special challenge of their own, improving on their 2004, 2005 & 2006 achievements.
