The tactics used to complete the race
varied dramatically. Dianne and Ross relied solely on the
refined carbohydrates found only in Mars bars along the
way. The accounts team (The Snails) settled in the at the
back of the field waiting for everyone else to fall down
(well it happened in the Olympics with Stephen Bradbury),
some even tried a short cut across the park but were duly
sent back by the marshals.
The first placed female was Louise Jones
(Design) in 38 minutes, the first place male was Domenic
Bartolo (Design) in 23 minutes and the fastest of the Over
35's was Greg Pollard (Bindery) in 24 minutes.
Penfold Buscombe also received an award
for the most colourful t-shirt and was presented with an
engraved crystal Tiffany & Co bowl that Pauline Boyle
collected from Pat Rafter.
