Measured Mile on the Rec (Grass) - 25th September 2011

On Sunday afternoon we held our Autumn Mile on the Grass and were delighted with the enthusiasm shown, particularly by our younger runners. Also some very competitive spirit from the seniors. The running was followed by tea and cakes in the very smart new Cricket pavilion. Thanks you to everyone who made cakes, or marshalled on the day and also to our runners for taking part.

Results from our Measured Mile on 9th Sept 2011 - on the Road

I am delighted to report that we had a most enjoyable run on Friday night with a number of notable highlights in our diverse and select field of runners. Most notably Doris Eggett was our First Lady home (on handicap) and completed the course, on her birthday, in 14:46. This was a great achievement for a wonderful lady now well into her 9th decade. Well done Doris. Flowers were presented on the finish line with our very best wishes. At the other end of the scale Spike at just 20 months completed the course in 24:21 and collected a few Dandelions on the way! From such as start we will await great achievements in a few years time. Some wonderful running across the whole spectrum and well done to Chris Belton for sprinting home in 5:39 making him our fastest runner on the night.  Full results are on the News Update page, please log in or use the link I sent you.
