So John looked to be on for a sub 3 at the 35K mark - frustratingly, Active's live results seem to have stopped at that timing position - did he manage the 2:55 they were predicting ??
Trevor started reasonably well going through the half at 1:36 although Annie must have passed him somewhere around the 28K mark, making up a more that 3 minute defecit at times.
At the 35K mark, John led, passing through at an incredible 2:25:52, followed by Annie at 2:44:55, then Trevor at 2:51:11 and Gordon at 3:00:15
Will John beat 3 hours ? Has Annie bitten off more than she can chew - or has she timed her first long one to perfection ? Will Gordon manage to catch Trevor before the finish line ?
All this and more when the website actually posts the final results !!!
Well done All
