The 2008 took place at Lancaster on Wednesday 23 July 2008. The race was organised by the Lancaster and Morecambe Athletic Club with the police event incorporated within the race. The course started and finished near to the Farmhouse Tavern, Morecambe Road, Lancaster.

In total, there were 204 runners with 78 initial entries from the police. 58 members Constabulary Athletics Section members took part on the night.

Eastern Division Success

The ladies from Eastern division were delighted when their ‘intensive’ (and we use that term loosely) training paid off at the Lancaster 10k inter-divisional event. PC Sue Moore showed a clean pair of heels to the rest of the ladies, running in just 46.38 minutes to take first prize and the Margaret Corris Memorial Shield for the second year in a row, with Janine Fallon coming in third. In the vet ladies event, DC Cath Lee took second place and Christine Holdsworth came in third.

The Division also walked away with both the ladies team first prize (Janine Fallon, PC Lisa Walmsley-Avci and PC Tori Joyce) and the veteran 35+ ladies team first prize (Sue Moore, Cath Lee and Christine Holdsworth). On realising how many prizes they had won, the ladies decided that it was just about worth having to endure the stifling heat and pesky flies!
