On behalf of the Boreham Wood Athletic Club, I would like to thank Pinnacle Insurance plc for sponsoring our annual half marathon and fun run, held on Sunday, and without whose continued support we would not be able to put on the races and encourage athletes of all ages and standards to compete together.

I would also like to thank both the Mayor of Hertsmere Councillor Stuart Nagler and his wife Ros, and the Mayor of Elstree and Boreham Wood Councillor Ernie Butler and his wife Michelle, for presenting every athlete with their medals and the overall winners with their trophies.

I would also like to thank the Rotary Club of Elstree and Borehamwood, the Red Cross, South East Herts Raynet and all our families and friends for marshalling the course to ensure that the 292 athletes completed the half marathon, and 149 athletes completed the fun run successfully.

The Elstree and Borehamwood branch of Arthritis Research provided the refreshments for competitors and spectators. Once again, thankyou everyone who has helped the club make this another successful year for the half marathon and fun run, which is part of the Elstree and Borehamwood Town Council Festival fortnight.

Pauline Poole,

Hon chairman/secretary,

Boreham Wood Athletic Club.
