The Scottish Widows Parish Walk

Start time: 8 am on 26 June 2010

Enter online

Entry list

The state owned radio station, Manx Radio, provides live updates from around the course.  With the introduction of electronic timing and text messaging their role might appear to be diminishing but instead it has given them the ability to provide much more information to their listeners than ever before to add to their reports and interviews from around the course.

Sports Editor Tim Glover is expected to lead Manx Radio's wall to wall coverage again in 2010

 

To say that Isle of Man Newspapers provide extensive coverage of the Clerical Medical Parish Walk would be an understatement. Their three weekly papers cover the previews, results and reports, photo spreads, and sponsorship presentations.

Sports Editor John Watterson has been covering the Parish Walk for 25 years

 

In 2009 tbe Race Walking Record produced its first ever single event production of the Parish Walk.  Editor John Constandinou has confirmed that the Scottish Widows Parish Walk will see a repeat of his special magazine and he is also going to take part, probably walking to Peel.

In 2005 Dermot O'Toole launched his book "A Walk Through Time" - a detailed history of the Scottish Widows Parish Walk.  In 2010 (before Christmas) he will  be publishing a second edition. In addition to writing reports for each of the years 2005 to 2010 (and making a few corrections) he wants to freshen it up and add some new photos. If you have any photos from any era in the Parish Walk then please email Dermot here.
