THANK YOUWard Walkers - proud supporter of the Monikie 10K What a success!As donations keep coming in, this was indeed the strongest, fastest, best race yet for the Diabetes Research Campaign. Along with our partner, Eventfull Management Ltd we wish to offer our sincerest thanks to all the athletes, their supporting families, friends, and race spectators for another outstanding record breaking attendance at just under 600! Winners one and all
Our first male and female athletes to charge across the finish line with incredible times were Roger van Gompel and Morgan Windram-Geddes. For our first ever inter-University team competition, the 'Estates and Buildings team' of Colin McNally, Les Morrison and George Gorman won the challenge. Finally, our most prestigious honour of all goes to athlete and supporter Maisie Harkins at the College of Life Sciences who not only finished at an impressive time, but became our Top Fundraising Champion of 2010 raising over £1.1K from colleagues, friends and family - all in the name of diabetes research.
