Road Running & Road Relays Results
for 2004
23 October
2004 National Road Relay Birmingham
I would like to say a massive thanks to all the team that
raced on Saturday and all the supporters that encountered the horrendous weather
conditions at the 6 Stage Road Relays at Sutton Park.
It was a great performance from all the team and
considering the bad weather we had some good personal performances. I also want
to say a big thanks to our traveling reserve Russell Bentley and the other
reserves that were so keen to run.
We finished in 7th position in a very close and tough
race.
The times were:
Spencer Newport 18.20 (34)
Andy Rayner 18.00 (20)
Michael Skinner 17.28 (11)
Dave Taylor 17.37 (5)
Barry Stephenson 18.27 (6)
Tim Dickenson 18.04 (7)
Total Time: 1:47:56 (only 27
seconds away from 4th place)
It was great to get a strong team out and it shows that we
can certainly mix it at the sharp end of the Road Relays. Come next April we
will certainly worry most clubs at the 12 stage!!!!

Well done to all those that ran on Saturday, it was a good
day out although a very wet one. Thanks also go to all those that supported.
That great team atmosphere was on full show again!!!!!
It was great to have 2 teams finish the event on Saturday.
We have some good performances once again and it shows that our developing
youngsters are improving all the time. Our A team finished 11th, which qualifies
us for the National event on Saturday 23rd Oct and the B team finished 51st.

the end of October, I will be focusing on getting one of our best teams out!!!!
It you want to run and are available, let me know as I will be putting the
entries in by the end of this week. With a strong team out we can defiantly get
in the mix for the medals.

National 12 Stage Relay, Sutton Park
Very well done to all those that ran on Saturday at the 12
stage Road Relays and to those that came to support.
We were unfortunate not to be able to complete a team, but
I would like to say a big thank you to the 10 guys that
turned out!!! We had some great performances which included Mike Skinner running
the 4th fastest short leg and Dave Taylor running the 9th fastest Long leg of
the day. Other good runs came from Barry Stephenson, Jaime Atkinson and Bill
Foster with good back up from the rest of the team. It was a good day, and, I
think, showed real promise that we will get back in the medals in the near
future.
Blackheath & Bromley H AC 3:47:49
B Stephenson (17) 27:28 M Skinner (3) 14:12 J. Atkinson (13) 29:03 B Foster (13)
15:28 D Taylor (6) 26:22 N Gasson (8) 16:06 R Smith (10) 30:10 C Osborn (11)
16:31 C Hogg (26) 35:02 K Daniel (26) 17:27
This event concludes the 2003/04 winter season. We have a
great mix of youth and experience and I really do hope that we can get our very
best runners out in all the various Championships next winter, and then we can
really make our mark. I have a few ideas up my sleeve for next winter which I
will let you all know about nearer the time.
Thanks have got to go to Ian Wilson, who has done a grand
job over the years as team manager. Also thanks go to John Baldwin and Pat
Calnan who have been great, in helping with the general running of the winter
season.
As many of you know the death of Will Bolton came as a
huge shock to us. William was always a great team member and loved the
idea of competing for the team and his mates, he will be hugely missed. I am
sure that we can carry his spirit on throughout the coming years, beginning on
September 18th at the Cross Country Relays. We have dedicated this event as a
Memorial race and would hope everyone would make a considerable effort in
turning out.
Have a great summer and I will catch up with you at
various meetings, but please book the last Saturday in September for the
Southern 6 stage RR so that we qualify for the National event at the end of
October.

- Southern 12 Stage Road Relay at Milton Keynes
I am pleased to tell you that we had just one complete
team and it finished 10th thus qualifying for the National 12 Stage Championship
on Saturday 24 April 2004 in Sutton Park.
Well done to all who ran and a very special thanks to our
supporters, who from the Club, included PP Mike Mahoney, VP Roy Smith and Andrew
Rayner. I am sure the last two would sooner have been running. May be they will
have recovered from injury in time for the National event.
The weather was cool and very windy making running fast
times difficult. That did not stop Keith Cullen breaking the long leg course
record by some 3 seconds. He now holds both long and short stage records!!!
Our results were:
Long=7978m, Short=5506m
1 Barry Stephenson 7th 25:01 27th
2 Russell Bentley 5th 17:34 26th
