2017 Rompin Rockwood results

We had another great race this year with the help of some very dedicated volunteers who worked extra hard to make it all happen.  Big Thanks to Mark McColgan, Tim Barry and Brian Head for helping me mark the long and tricky course. Mark even brought us some breakfast sausage before setting out to mark the course. Thanks to Sabine and her brother Philip for helping runners go the right way. Thanks Sean Creary from River and Trail and John Hough for doing morning check in and timing.
Thanks to Angela for helping with timing as well. Sabine even helped me the next day take down the 10k course! And the most thanks goes to my lovely wife Sadie for helping all day and night for several days and being the spreadsheet queen.
     We had some fun family highlights in the results this year with Mother and Son winning the 10k, Marnie and Lars Schwarz.  both setting first year Course Records.
     Also, Not only Did Shelley Doucet win the 25k outright, knocking the old Male CR down by ~9 minutes!, but her sister, Marcie,  came in second for women.
