Results of Rowbotham's Round Rotherham

Saturday 14th October, 2017

Take me to the Round Rotherham page, RHAC page, Henry's Home Page

This page has the updated relay team membership as advised by team managers

2017 Preliminary results appear on the SiEntries/Sportident website

Many links currently go to holding pages

Main results added on this page - everything in progress

Full individual results , Leaders, Team,
Relay, Completions, Entry List (pre-entries), Reports/Pictures

Note: to help protect against Spam, most e-mail addresses given have NOT inserted after the @ sign; human respondents should remove the 3 extra characters

Name spellings, affiliations etc in the archive and the linked results listings available from this page are based on the archive.  In general, the archive uses the spelling first used by a participant, unless the name change is permanent (e.g. when a lady marries), to avoid risk of confusion between people with similar names, e.g. Steve Walker, Steven Walker and Stephen Walker. For doppelgangers (e.g. the two Stephen Walker's who have appeared) identification text may be added to the name.    Please let me know if you are aware of any errors, to  Henry Marston   

Basic results appear on the SiEntries website (click on Round Rotherham on Previous Results quick link on the left). Now available. Additional information (completions, veteran status, etc) is to be added on this page. Split times are shown; graphical and more digestible tabular analysis is provided from this page.

Warning: In the results linked from this page, club membership is based on the entry for the archive, where for identification purposes a returning entrant who does not give a club affiliation retains previous affiliation (helping to distinguish doppelgangers). Accordingly, there will be individuals who have left a club but not declared a new club.  Here you will be listed with affiliation to your last known club.  In most cases, this is inconsequential, but may affect the Team Result. If you are listed for a team and feel you should not be, contact me  Henry Marston and I can make adjustments.

 

Blogs, Reports, etc 

Nick Ham's pictures

These links may not go directly to the RR report; you may have to search for October 2017 reports

 

Links to most of the Blogs have been posted on our  Facebook page and many have attracted comments 

In the light of Paul Burrows report (2013), I'm interested who (a) used a GPS device (handheld, wrist or smartphone) or not, (b) used written description, strip map, OS map (alone or in conjunction with GPS device) (c) how effective. Email me Henry Marston,  so that we can improve navigation aids next time.

Right of way issue

Stage 2. Leaving the first checkpoint, the old route followed an old railway line, then took a path that droped to a stream and climbed steps to a road. Unfortunately this path has been blocked by a new landowner.  We plan to put in a Right of Way (ROW)claim for our original route. If I was on a social walk, I would prefer to use the original route than to walk a path to the side of a busy road. If there was a problem with the road route, we would like to have the option of reverting to the original route which we have used since the Round Rotherham event was established. This duration gives us precedence for a ROW claim.  If you are a regular participant, especially if you took part 20 years or more ago, and are willing to support the ROW claim, please let me, Henry Marston, know (or any questions about the claim) and I will provide appropriate forms (as in 2007 for a previous ROW claim!) or they can be downloaded (2 documents, one explanation, one the official form.
At present, I am liaising with the local Ramblers group with respect to making a ROW claim

Note: Club membership is shown for identification purposes, as this listing is primarily for the archive and is not used for calculating team results. Your club may be different from that recorded in the 'Official' results.  If you were a club member in previous years, but are now unattached, your affiliation to your former club may persist in this listing, if only to help distinguish doppelgangers.  Changes between original entry and race day may not be picked up.

10-completions Award

In line with a tradition in LDWA events, an award has been introduced for completing the event 10 times. Awards have been made to Roy Varo†, Henry Marston, Dave Carratt, Kerry Booth, Mick Cochrane, George Kay, Terry Griffiths†, Andrew West, Chris Sanders, David Fox, Mick Marsters, Brian Harney, Ian O'Mara, Tom Hughes, Bob Berzins, Peter Simpson, Percy Wellor, Martyn Gaynor, Barry Harrison, David Keward, Michael Collins, Kevin Uzzell, Malcolm Coles, Philip Gwilliam, John Cunnane, Philip Elliot, Alan Yates, Julian Brown, David Shepherd, Jim Fulton, Philip Haigh, Brian Harwood, Philip Musson, Paul Sorensen, John Clarke, John Hughes, Barrie Bedford, Caroline Boyd, Shirley Hume, David Oxley, Kevin Marshall, David Egan, Marla Howard-Cutts, Pat Rooney, Dave Roberts, Alison Brind, Mike Elwell, Chris Hume, Jane Matthews, John Vernon, Les Hill, Steve Garlick, Bill Watson, Martin Dietrich and Nick Ham

Additional awards were made this year to 6 more (subject to rechecking).  Kevin Doyle, Sharon Gaytor, Lee Carratt, Judith Webb, Nigel Coates and Elaine Dee

That's a total of 61!
 

20-completions Award

Roy Varo†, Henry Marston, Andrew West, Terry Griffiths†, Kerry Booth, Chris Sanders and Tom Hughes have been presented with an award for reaching 20 completions (7 recipients). 

Additional awards were made this year to 2 more: Barry Harrison and Martyn Gaynor  Total now 9

The awards are based on my records; please let me know if there is an error (contact information below). Names get spelled differently in different years (Steve or Stephen), ladies marry, and certain names have been duplicated, easy when there were two Nigel Robinson's in one year, more difficult when there were John White's in different years, from different clubs (which is not decisive) but different DOB (which usually is). We have had 2 participants with the same name, same DOB, fortunately in the same year! 

Retirements are included with main results 


Unofficial Team Result
Subject to re-scrutiny of affiliation / team membership  tbc

Club membership is based on the entry for the archive, where for identification purposes a returning entrant who does not give a club affiliation retains previous affiliation (helping to distinguish doppelgangers). Accordingly, there may be individuals who have left a club but are here listed as a team member for that club.  If you are listed for a team and feel you should not be, contact me  Henry Marston and I can make adjustments.


The calculation is on cumulative time.
(Note: LDWA (as a whole), FRA and TRA have not been included as bona fide teams)
LDWA members: If you wish to claim membership of a section, please let me know
