Watch Rosamunde's big
finish and take a look at the rest of the race.

The Olympic flame burns bright in Medway. And nowhere is
the spirit of the games more evident than in the courage and
determination of 91-year-old Rosamunde Cutler who was one of the
1,700 people who strode around the streets of Rochester in the
Medway Mile on Monday evening.

It's the taking part that counts and Rosamunde demonstrated that
enduring Olympian principle when she crossed the finishing line in
front of hundreds of cheering participants who had waited at the
Castle to give her a rousing reception.

The event was moved from the Black Lion in Gillingham which is
being redeveloped as part of Medway's preparations for the 2012
games and the switch appeared to have paid off with a much bigger
attendance than last year.

Participants were given the opportunity to try out some
sports before the race and find out about taking up the
variety of activities offered by Medway sports clubs. They were
also given free access to the Castle itself, and could warm up with
the steep climb to the keep!

Before the mass event, the more serious runners took part in the
elite race. The Medway Mile. organised by Medway Council, will
be held each year on July 27 - the date of the opening of the 2012
games.
