Corrected 2008 Results!
The organisers would like to apologise for the error in processing which led to positions 176-223 inclusive being recorded in reverse order.
We hope that the amended order along with the consequent 'correction' in the times will settle any post-race disputes which our action may have inadvertently caused. The revised 2008 results are now online.

The weather gods relented to allow the 564 finishers superb conditions in which to enjoy the race itself as well as the post-race festivities hosted by the Ship Bar and Restaurant, Kinghorn.
