Four Villages Half

The Four Villages Half Marathon went off without incident, with some excellent Wilmslow performances.  The day was cold, with a strong westerly wind which buffeted the field on some stretches of the course.  The rain held off until about the 2 hour mark, and so the end of the field got an additional soaking to add to their worries.  Results (straight off the web-site, so not checked yet) are as follows.  If you know of any errors/omissions please let Andy and Ian know (and, of course, the race organisers).

Summer Series 2012

MUGS and MEDALS for the 2011 competition will be handed out before training on Tuesday 17th Jan starting 6.45. Medals for the first three men and ladies, a glass to the three who have completed all races, and mugs to 61 of you who completed 7 races. T shirts at a later date at a suitable venue.

SUMMER SERIES 2012

Your feedback from the summer series was interesting, not least because of the totally opposite points of view expressed. Some of you take it seriously, others just try for the minimum number of races!  It is a challenging series, and will test some more than others - it's meant to have a training effect as well as the competitive and social aspects currently enjoyed.

For 2012 there will be 22 races, 11 off-road, 11 on-road.  For each there will be a competition with your best 5 races to count. Medals in each for the first three in all age categories (with 5 year gaps). The overall competition remains the same with your best 8 results, from any of the 22 races to count . We shall be starting slightly earlier this year, spreading the competition over 9 months, giving adequate chance to anyone ill or injured to recover and finish the series.

The first race this year will be The Cloud Nine race at Congleton on March 4th, they are not doing entry on the day this year so pre entries only, there shouldnt be any problem with numbers as they have never yet reached their limit. The second race is The Trafford 10K, on March 11th, this does reach its limit, so enter soon.  It's a fast course and some of you seem keen to have it in the competition, so here's your chance! Subsequent races are Chester Spring 5, April 4th, and Whitley 10k, April 15th. We are just awaiting a few more details , but the full list will be available within 10 days.  Note - The Gun run and the Christelton 5k are not taking place this year, so can't be included.

Christmas Handicap

In the absence of a formal prize Julie got a kiss from both Roy and Nick, enough to set any girl's Christmas alight. In all the traditional muttering and moaning about handicap times, no-one had seen Julie's as anything but fair, her win was entirely a result of good running. Amongst those moaning, believe it or not, was Damien but he added a second handicap by being on the toilet at his start time. The 'Valley Lodge Trail' is your actual time out on the course, Malcolm and Rob both finishing ahead of Damien.

A year ago this course was icy, dangerously icy, and, as late as Thursday, Styal Woods was deep mud, but a dry and unseasonally warm Christmas weekend produced near-perfect conditions on a course made interesting by the switch halfway from on to off road. Christmas clearly took its toll on one or two people but positions on the whole were in line with the Summer Series results. Sharon and Diane ran particularly well, Clare saw more of the woods than the rest of us.

Good running conditions meant the handicapping was more likely to be accurate and saw, in the middle of the field, over 30 club members home within 2¹/₂ minutes. Given the high turn-out the idea, as it always is, of turning a summer Thursday training session into a handicap over the same course was again discussed, it may be worth returning to once we have the Summer Series programme.

Thanks to Dave, Paul and Nick for officiating. It was good to have Martin, Peter and Soraya's support out on the course, and, when I went past, also Nina's, as she nursed her knee.

Handicap - Tuesday December 27th.

Dave, Paul and Christine are organising the start and finish. Nick has volunteered to help and anyone else would be more than welcome. With no numbers and a much bigger club nowadays just having someone shout out the name as each person finishes (please do it yourself if no-one else does) is a help.
