Rae Captieux had an outstanding run to place fourth, first female in 16.59.

Mention must be made of such a brave run by over 70 Stewart Davidson who suffers the disability of Parkinson’s.

Davidson travelled by train from Broughty Ferry to Leuchars to make the start and for 25 years or so was always the first to volunteer help at so many Fife AC races.

To date £400 was raised for the Bob Stark Memorial Fund (Prostate Scotland).
