Xmas Handicap
Posted by Alex on December 2nd, 2009 | 0 comments
20 Tortoises contested the annual Xmas handicap ‘race’.
As usual, all runners estimated their time and recorded it on an envelope into which he/she deposited their watch.
The idea is that the winner will be the runner who completes the 4k in a time that is the closest to that that he/she has recorded (it’s a bit more complicated than that due to differences being taken as a percentage of the estimate – but you get the idea)
The first person back was Ian McNee – but did he win?
I can reveal that the winner was close but that no one was spot on. There is also a wooden spoon which I’d love to hand over to Ian.
This entry will be edited next weekend with the outcome (as a clue to the winner – It wasn’t me!).
