by isleofman.com 2nd January 2011

JOCK Waddington won the End to End Walk in a new record time in September.

 

He took 6mins 28secs off Sean Hands' old mark, finishing in 6hrs 37mins 29secs. Last year's winner Michael George was second.

 

Michael was also inside the old record, recording a time of 6hrs 41mins 01sec, which was also around ten minutes quicker than his winning time from last year.

 

Two Richards - Richard Spenceley from Hull and Richard Gerrard from the Isle of Man - came home in joint third in a time of 7hrs 02mins 51secs, having helped each other along since Jurby.

 

Meanwhile Judith Quane, who's a relative newcomer to racewalking, was the first woman home in 7hrs 40mins 09secs.
