I am delighted to announce that Dr Ron Hill MBE has kindly offered to come and race the Gin Pit 5 on Sunday and help out with the presentation as our guest of honour.

Ron who is now 72 years old still holds many records and was the first man to break 2.10 for the marathon and then he won the Boston Marathon in 2hrs 09in 1970.

Ron also won gold medals at the 1969 European Championships and 1970 Commonwealth Games for the marathon.
