Out latest 'Who, Where and When' photo shows a group of young men cooling out in a pool, and we wanted to know who they all are, where are they, and what were they doing there?  There is also a very special reason why we're posting this photo at this particular time.

Sadly, we came into possession of this photo in August 2024 following the sad death of our good friend retired Inspector Tony Smith who is one of the guys in this photo.  The photo was taken when our Police Running Team organised by Jeff Payne, who had been instrumental in encouraging our colleagues to take up running as a means of keeping fit. I'm not sure who exactly came up with the idea, but our Police runners started sending a team to the annual Jasper to Banff running event in Canada.  Tim Stukes remembers that he was the slowest runner on the team, but even so he says the team won the Police Trophy.  Ideally, it would be great to have a more in depth article about the involvement of our Police runners in the Jasper to Banff run.
