Sevenoaks 7 or Jamie’s road to recovery
Blackheath & Bromley Harriers athlete Jamie Atkinson has
started out on the road to recovery following his quadricep injury which forced
him out of the London Marathon and caused a three week layoff from running.
Following extensive physiotherapy, Jamie competed in his
first race last Tuesday at Tonbridge where he came third in the Kent 5000m
Championships, only 10.3seconds behind Blackheath & Bromley’s in form Peter
Tucker.
On Sunday, Jamie along with his coach Gordon Cooper and
fellow team mate Tony Mulcock, all competed in the Sevenoaks 7 mile race in
Knole Park. The course has had a revamp since last year and was considerably
harder than the previous layout.
With temperatures in the mid 70’s the race was always
going to be hard for all the runners. Jamie made sure that he was fully prepared
for the race, hydrated and fully stretched out and warmed up before the start.
Jamie’s main threat in the race was his old training partner Allan Lee from
Sevenoaks AC, who is fully fit and a strong runner on his ‘Home’ course.
Allan and Jamie set of leading the pack, feeding off each
other and leaving the rest behind until approximately the 4Km mark, while
climbing a sharp incline Jamie’s quads cramped again causing him to stop and
stretch out the offending muscles before chasing Allan again, the same thing
happened on the 2nd lap of the park, by this time Allan was 45 secs ahead of
Jamie and cruised to an easy win, with Jamie taking 2nd place.
After the race Jamie said “Allan Lee is a class act when
it comes to distance running and he was a very strong influence on me as a
junior athlete, so if I have to lose then it hurts a little less when it is one
of my former mentors, but we will see next year!"

Met Police Team Dominate National Police Champs The Met
Police Cross Country team dominated the annual British Police Cross Country
Championships in Pontypool, Gwent on the 6th of Feb. This fixture doubled as the
trials for the European Championships. It was a beautiful day and a monstrous
course. The competitors were generally apprehensive before starting due to some
of the climbs on the course.
The Men's event contained several international runners.
Dave Mitchinson, an international marathon runner won the event for Herts
Police. Steve Rhys-Jones of Hampshire followed home in 2nd. Rhys-Jones another
international on the road. Ben Whitby of City of London was 3rd. Whitby is a
former GB no.1 for steeplechase. Richard Gardner, welsh international, could
only finish 6th. In the Met team, Peter Tucker (PolRec) led the team home,
finishing 5th and thus beating Gardner. Tucker therefore gained an automatic
place in the GB Police Team for the European Championships. Tucker also led the
Met team to an astonishing victory in the team race. The team consisted of
Tucker 5th, Rhys Peters (XB) 9th , James Brown (TX) 13th , Leigh Packer (ZD)
15th, Karl Free (XB) 16th and Paul Wyatt (3TSG) 19th . This gave an amazing
total of 77 points. Hampshire took the silver medal home in the team as well as
the individual but were 155points behind the Met team. The Met's B team was 3rd
on the day only 14 points behind the silver medallists

33 Carolyna Jones-Baldock 27.27
The last of the Senior Womens race was at a new venue at
Nurstead Court. It had a bit of everything, fields, woods, hills, pond! – which
had the ice broken before we ran through it. Apologies to those who didn’t know
about this, I didn’t mention it beforehand in case it affected your decision to
run!! Despite having wet feet after the first kilometre, it was a good course.
We finished the league on a high note as our top three came 1st in the team
event. Jennie returned in time for the last race and ran very well after a
lengthy time off due to injury, coming in third. Rosie was a minute behind in
fifth, and Ella, proving that training works, came in 10th.
Overall our team were 3rd for the season behind Medway and
Dartford. Not bad considering we only had 2 runners at Capstone park! In the
overall individual results Ella and Carolyna did all 4 races and came 6th and 12
respectively. In the Vets category Rosie was 10th. Well done to everyone who
competed over the winter season, you now have 7 months to wait before the next
one!!

As always when the race is at Parliament Hill you can
expect to get muddy, and this year was no exception. Those who ran will know
what I refer to as slurry hill! Fortunately we only had one faller, Justine who
managed to land on (very) soft ground!
I must congratulate Jane as she ran in trail shoes and
managed to stay upright the entire time.
Our scoring 4 all ran well, Well done to Rosie for
bringing the team home first, and I think the battle for 2nd with Bridget and
Jane would have been closer if Jane had spikes. There was a sprint finish for
Carolyna and Clare, but the addition of time chips meant that although they
crossed the line together, someone has to come first.
I’m pleased to say that we were the first Kent team to
finish, though our mob rivals SLH an Ranelagh both managed to get in the top 10.
With a few additions to the team for the nationals it
should be a good competition, and those of us who ran at the weekend will have
no fear if it looks a bit wet!
We are racing at a new course in Alton this year so the
course is as yet unknown.
Looking forward to seeing you all there.
Kate
PS. Carolyna and I returned to ‘slurry hill ‘during the
mens race to watch for casualties, sadly we only saw one!!
