Good evening, Race Report fans! I hope you have enjoyed the autumnal weather this weekend and managed to fit in some nice runs in the sun. Before we crack on with this week’s results, a couple of ‘late entries’ from last weekend: Rick Clark took part in Centurion’s Autumn 100 (mile) on 13 October, completing what sounds like a gruelling event in 23.00.58. Rashila Wanninayake toughed out tough, wet conditions to come home with a PB of 4.21.53 from the Yorkshire Marathon on 14 October.
Good Evening Race Report fans, from a thoroughly soggy Amersham (albeit a lovely, dry sofa). Well done to anyone who went for a run today. You are a hero for even braving it out of the front door!
Before we get into the detail of this week’s results, a big shout out to everyone who took part in the first match of the 18-19 Chiltern Cross Country League yesterday. The Club had a fantastic turnout and some really impressive performances across the board. Keep watching the website for Steve Perkin’s report of the action. Chiltern Harriers had a superb start to their cross country league season with second place at Oxford Horspath on Saturday. There was a record Chiltern turnout of 121 runners across all age groups.
Fast races were the order of the day on firm courses under blue skies. Chiltern ended up with eight team victories and seven individual wins. Chiltern Harriers youngsters had a superb day at the National Road Relay Championships at Sutton Park, Sutton Coldfield on Saturday.
In grey, drizzly conditions four of the five age group A teams came in the top ten with both U13 teams winning silver medals. Frankie Baxter and Thomas Redmond were both in the fastest three lap times in their respective age groups. It was the best set of results that the club has posted in this prestigious early season competition. |
