Race Report 26 - 27 October: 24 Hour World Championships, Bedford Autodrome Running Grand Prix, Ricky Road Run and more

27/10/2019

 
​It’s spoooookkkyyyy how well Harriers have been running this weekend, Race Report fans! (And shameful how bad the puns are going to get.)
 
But Let’s Do The Time Warp Again, because I managed to forget (“how?!” I hear you cry) the Tring Ridgeway Run on Sunday 13 October.  There were two Harriers in action on the hilly course, David ‘Dastardly’ Saul and Mark ‘Fearsome’ Fry, who finished in 1.22.24 and 1.30.43, respectively. (I blame the Chiltern League on 12 October, and Angela Hughes’ birthday Prosecco, for befuddling my brain.)

Race Report: Wendover Challenge, Berlin Marathon, parkrun and more

29/9/2019

 
​What a Sunday it has been, Race Report fans! Not one, but two brilliant marathon PBs in Berlin for Aran Davidson (2.37.53) and Caroline Stephens (3.45.00) in some miserable, rainy conditions. I think I speak for everyone in saying that we are immensely proud of you both and wish you huge congratulations. You have both worked so hard and your reward is duly deserved. Hopefully some Oktoberfest celebrations are in full swing.

Race Report 21 - 22 September: XNRG Tring Ultra, Leighton 10 and Welwyn and Great East Half Marathons

22/9/2019

 
​Did you miss me, Race Report fans?! I couldn’t blame you if you didn’t, thanks to the wonderful Katie Royals, who has done a fabulous job at keeping you updated in my absence. Thank you Katie.
 
Before we move on to the usual Race Report line-up, a quick mention and a huge congratulations to Chiltern’s juniors who have been in action in the first schools’ cross country of the year and the Southern Athletics Association road relays. Chiltern scooped a number of medals across the age categories. Look out for a full report coming your way soon. Also, well done to Nick Hughes who ‘hare-d’ not one, but eight (is that even possible?!) school cross country races.

August Bank Holiday: parkrun and Ridgeway Challenge

25/8/2019

 
Happy Bank Holiday Race Report fans! The results have been as scorching as the weather.
​
First and foremost, a huge congratulations to Tim Dawson and Dave Bellamy who braved the heat to complete the absolutely mammoth Ridgeway Challenge 86 miles, Saturday 24 – Sunday 25 August. With a huge number of withdrawals due to the heat, Tim and Dave showed real mettle, both coming home in 25.31.46. Well done both!

There’s certainly been some fantastic running to write about.

​Good Evening Race Report fans. I hope you’ve had a lovely weekend of running and relaxing.
 
Starting, in the traditional fashion, with parkrun on 6 July, there were course PBs for Ian Lawson (19.49 at Upton Court); Ade McCormack (22.29 at Enniskillen) and for Neil and I (20.35 and 21.17 at Wendover Woods).

Race report 21 - 23 June: Summer Solstice 10k, parkrun, and Jurassic Coast 50k

23/6/2019

 
Once again, Chiltern Harriers hosted a highly successful Junior Triathlon today, Sunday 23 June. With a number of wins for Chiltern Harriers (Katie Allsop, Frankie Baxter, Isaac Jessop-Tranter and more), the day went as smooth as could be desired, a testament to the organisations skills of Steve Field, who hangs up his Race Director hat this year. I am sure all Harriers will wish to join me in thanking Steve, and his wife Annie, for all their dedicated service to this event over the years. Well done! Full results of the event here.

Race Report: ultra action for across the globe, Ridge off Roader and Copenhagen Marathon

19/5/2019

 
​Hello everyone from Race Report Land. I hope you all had a lovely Sunday (and, for those of you who were at last night’s Social & Awards evening – a quiet Sunday). Neil and I enjoyed a gentle stroll and refreshment from the Black Horse Inn in Chesham this afternoon, making use of our Chiltern Harriers AC 10% discount, which proved a great way to round off the weekend. (Other establishments are, of course, available!)
