Entries
Entries received up to last night . More locals are expected to hand in entries at tomorrow evenings 3 kms walk. So at present the favourite I would think to be Jock Waddington from Isle of Man. Likely to be up the front end as well should be the IOM duo of Vinny Lynch and Sean Hands, along with Phil Lockwood (who should enter tomorrow) from Guernsey. Stuart Le Noury, who has a relatively slow best time in the Church Walk, has had a good season at the shorter distances on the island and could take a chunk off his best time and be up with the above mentioned.
The pick of the ladies should be Marie Jackson, the defending Champion and second fastest woman ever on the course. However the womens record holder from 1995, Cath Duhig has also entered, but as she will admit is nowhere near the speed of 16 years ago.

Otto Le Gallez
A relative of Ralph Le Gallez who walked in the Church to Church walk in 1949 and had his certificate from then had enquired about him, which led me to the fact he was related to Otto Le Gallez, one of Guernseys early and memorable names in the sport. Story of the Le Gallez family at http://sarnia.wordpress.com/2011/07/12/le-gallez-walkers-in-church-to-church/. Printable story here Le Gallez
