*****************************************************************
NEW BEGINNINGS
Although the Cross-Country season was domestically enjoyable it must be admitted that, at representational level, it was lack-lustre compared to recent years. The same goes for road relays. Now we turn to T&F where there have already been wins for the Juniors, YAs and Vets.

Although we regularly report Race Walking results, these generally take a low profile. However we must not allow to pass unnoticed Peter Hannell's win in the European Vets Indoor Chs.

AT THE AGM
The pre-circulated resolutions were agreed, resulting in-
a) All PPs and VPs who wish to attend are members of the General Committee. The number of places available for the election of ordinary Club members is restored to nine.
b) A subscription "holiday" is granted to athletes of international standing.
President, Hon.Secretary & Courier Edt as above. Other elections-

SECURITY

HEATHEN HAUNTS (23) Ladywell Fields (Illustrated by Dave Johnson)
"I was a keep-fit addict. Every morning you could see people counting the bones in my skinny body at Ladywell Recreation Track. I used to exercise there and lift weights in the clubhouse. I once ran around it in a snowstorm wearing nothing but a bathing costume - I must have been mad."

Was it John Baldwin, Ian Wilson, Pete Shepheard or Chris Haines preparing for their epic One Hour track race in the days, round about the Club Centenary, when our Championship evenings were at Ladywell? No. Could it have been young Mike Mahoney doing 11.4 / 23.1 for the sprint double and long-jumping over 17ft? No, but none other than Spike Milligan getting ready for his little tiff with Hitler and Rommel.

Riding from London to Hayes by train (OK, so just suppose it's the right kind of snow) takes you through this excellent training area. A nice park divided also by the tree-lined Ravensbourne, having left behind its smaller beginnings in Bromley to become a genuine river, especially after heavy rain (remember rain?). A pretty good grass running surface, flat or hilly, and tarmac, including circuits of 800m and 1600m (if you can find the markings).

The cinder track can be dusty or waterlogged, but is surprisingly often in good condition for a run with some companions. If you find yourself running with such as Groovy Mover, Kamikase Sid, Chief Treasurer or Swindling Toff (no connection), then you've strayed onto the Catford Dog Track and you could lose your shirt (Botley'll sell you another).

The running track, with its changing/minigym facilities, is rather basic but fine for training purposes. However, a successful bid has been made to (you guessed it) The Lottery for a million or so to upgrade it, including all-weather track.

This would make it OK for leagues and suchlike. This has not been without a NIMBY reaction from some locals and, apart from that, one may harbour some misgivings about the future periodic cost of resurfacing and the 'Colditz' style fences that one encounters e.g at Crystal Palace. Still, that's progress for you, and due to start this summer.

Within easy reach are two further excellent and compact grass hill runs, both with panoramic views. Blythe Hill is quickly reached by climbing the grass away from the river and crossing to Ravensbourne Park Crescent and Montacute Rd. The somewhat larger Hilly Fields is reached by following the park northwards beside the railway. Near Ladywell station we pass St.Mary's church to the right, while left is the small Nature Reserve, one of a number in this area along the "Green Corridors" for wildlife that railway lines provide.

At 148 Ladywell Rd a plaque marks the site of the original Ladywell Mineral Spring, a sort-of early drinks station, but, leaving this to our left, we cross near Ladywell bridge to Vicars Hill for a short but steep climb to Hilly Fields. At the highest point is a trig pillar, recalling the days of Ordnance Survey triangulation before satellite mapping.

Nearby is what was Brockley County Boys School, now liberated for Prendergast Girls.

The whole area described was familiar to the earliest Heathens and the Club History (pg 15) gives a report of a run in 1872 through what were then fields and passing over Ladywell bridge and through St.Mary's churchyard

SCVAC TRACK & FIELD LEAGUE - Kent Division One

For track there are two M40 team places (A & B) and one M50 place (C). For field the places are A & C. You can also compete as a non-scorer and this is an excellent way to make a start if you have not recently (or ever) tried T&F. You don't have to be a member of SCVAC and there is no entry fee. The meetings are held in the evening starting about 6.40 and details of the remaining fixtures are given below. Contact Richard Coe (0181 290 5231) well in advance if you wish to take part.

They persevere, what goads them on
quagmire, heat . . . stress and strain
'Pheidippides' win or lose
They challenge - not for gain.
From Dorando to Bikele
Nurmi, Kuts and all
What is this challenge
They are forced to call
To prove? prevail?
so many views
They torture on..
they do not choose

FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS
News of the finding of a 400,000 year-old javelin have confirmed suspicions that some of our Vets have been around for ever. But help is at hand from Hi-Tech, which has taken time off from inventing the electronic bagpipe to devise a special chip to be worn by geriatrics so that they can be plotted when they wander off. Should be useful to our Trail-layers. Meanwhile Cronin has found an ad for " A World Champion's Dedicated Daily Routine". This involves swallowing two antioxidant tablets to cope with free radicals, one calcium, magnesium & vitamin D for bones and muscles, one co-enzyme for optimum energy conversion, one concentrate of fish oils for heart and circulation and one multivitamin, multimineral and gemsing for the immune system. Me, I'll stick to Mad Cow and Organophosphates.
