Would your reaction time have made the top ten?? If you beat Burnsie, he will kill me for taking his one point away!!
If your time is entered into the Class 1 table, everyone above you scores one more point!
I know the rules say tickets should be handed in on the day, but your circumstances were exceptional...let me know where you are at.
 
Not bothered about the point asl I finally became a walker and not a talker even though with my times it was more like a crawler

Even if a snail could run faster than me I can now "Walk The Walk"

For those of you who didn't turn up today here's a little vid Of a Z " Walking the Walk"
For those who try to talk the talk but don't walk the walk, enjoy!!!!!!
