Posted: Tue 08 Apr 2014 8:00 pm
IT is being hailed as a great success by the organisers as the total raised so far has already exceeded last year’s total of TL42,528.05.
With over 450 competitors, including several dogs, three-legged walkers and a donkey, the Esentepe Fun, Run and Ramble 2014 attracted the largest field of participants since its inception in 2011.
Art Watson, Chairman of the organising committee said: “We are still waiting for some sponsorship money to come in and we have 4 more social events before the end of the month so we should be in a position to announce the final total sometime in early May.
Obviously, I want to thank all our sponsors, large or small, the participants and the committee for their untiring work over the last four months. It all came together remarkably well and I believe people enjoyed the event”.
He further added: “We were delighted to see so many children taking part and this year, for the first time, Esentepe School entered and ran alongside children from the English School of Kyrenia and Girne American University.”
The winners were: 2km – Rueben Park; 5km – Nick Grant; 8kmn – Osman Atakan and the Fancy Dress was won by Kade Fletcher as Spiderman. A special certificate was awarded to Kai Fletcher who has taken part in every Fun Run and for the first time ran the 8km.
