Tuesday, August 25, 2009 at 5:56PM Race Organiser Graham Finlayson phoned me to say that a recent surge of entries has meant that the limit of 2250 has almost been reached. If you wish to enter and haven't yet done so, please send off immediately. Graham wishes to close entries on Sunday 30th (earlier if demand dictates).
There will categorically be no entries on the day.
Saturday, August 22, 2009 at 3:15PM Many thanks to all the marshals, time-keepers and others who helped make this event a success for the 10th time.
Late starter Chris Kiely who ran 16.23 was the fastest on the night. Others under 17 minutes were Phil Cook 16.36, David Williams 16.43 and Nick Dukes 16.51. Libby O'Duffy was the fastest lady with another PB 19.14.
The winning 'team' was David McDonald, Shayne Sawyers and Mike Murphy.
Friday, August 21, 2009 at 10:06AM An historic document has been now made available to all on the site.
A new section has been created called Best of ACE, in there is the 1st ever edition from 1982. More will be added in time but it'll give you an insight into the Club's early days.
Thursday, August 20, 2009 at 4:28PM The October issue of 'Running Fitness' magazine will feature an article profiling the club, its activities and some of its characters. As a 'thank you' the magazine will be supplying Les Croups with 250 bottles of Taut sports drink. As soon as they arrive, these will be available on a first come, first served basis at the club house.
The issue will be on sale from September the 25th.
Monday, August 3, 2009 at 10:42PM Really! I didn't believe it either. Fifteen years as Temporary Chairman is obviously therapeutic, and John looks as if he could be temporary Chairman for at least as long again!
This year at the Masters Road Relays at Sutton Park the Over 70 age group was the only one we didn't contest. Hopefully this is yet another area where John can "lead from the front" and along with the likes of Alan Bladen and Errol Alexis can show our septuagenarians to be the fastest on the road and not just the fastest to the bar!
