One more takes us to 557

Non veterans

It seems hard to believe that for more than half of the Parish Walk history veterans were only expected to walk to Peel - they were too old to walk further than that. It was the young, fit men who were supposed to walk the whole way.

Although it was not universally popular, I campaigned again veterans and women having a race to Peel as collectively they were making up the majority of the finishers.

There were only 57 finishers aged under 40 last year out of a total of 187:

Martijn Biesmans
Richard Gerrard
Stephen Harvey
Chris Cale
Ian Wakley
Samantha Draper
Juan Readshaw
Darren Mealin
Helen Taylor
Christopher Waller
