It’s a been relatively quiet weekend from a Race Report perspective, so I hope you’ve all been enjoying the lovely weather and getting out for some nice, gentle bluebell runs. If you’ve not yet been to Hervines Park, I can highly recommend a soothing visit.
The Merchant Taylor track sessions start as from THURSDAY 5th MAY and last for 20 weeks.
The warm-up will start at 7.00pm. The sessions that I devise are suitable for endurance runners aiming for any distance 3km upto 1/2 marathon, or even establishing a fitness base before starting a marathon schedule for the autumn. There will be some old familiar sessions, with several new additions. The cost per session is £3, but a season ticket is available at £40 covering all 20 sessions. If you wish to take advantage of this please pay (as with membership subs) to the club and label the payment "TRACK" plus your surname. Also inform Mike Shrive either verbally or via email/text.This would help the admin greatly. While Mike will recommend sessions for everyone to take part in, he stressed that any CHAC member can use the track at this time to do their own sessions. hope you’ve had a bumper crop of chocolate eggs this weekend to match this number crop of races, and enjoyed the sunny weather.
Good Evening, Race Report fans! I hope you have been enjoying the sunny, albeit slightly cooler, weather this weekend and are looking forward to a visit from the Easter Bunny.
A big Chiltern contingent filled out what was the quietest Watford Open in memory on Wednesday.
On a cool, still evening some races fell victim to showers but conditions were quite good for a meeting so early in the season. 100m U13 Felix Danielli got his season going with a good 13.78. Long Jump U13 Evelyn Wildman completed six consistently good jumps, the best of which was a PB of 3.89m. 1500m Race 1 Felix Danielli was back in action and ran 5.09.70 and Nia Clarke in her U13 debut ran a very mature race to log 5.31.88. Also running well were U15 Rebecca Lawson (5.44.05), U15 Eleanor Horne making her club debut (5.59.72), and U13 Carys Jones (6.05.05). Race 2 Three U13 Boys made their debuts in this one - Luke Coultate (5.29.02), Jacob McCall (5.29.82) and Isaac McCall (5.36.66). U15 Lydia Cross ran 5.51.67. Race 3 Olivia Clarke ran a five second PB to log 5.09.54. There were more Chiltern debutants at the distance and all had great races – U13 Kit Dixon ran 5.20.93, U13 George Mawby ran 5.23.82, and U15 Issy Robinson ran 5.24.78. Race 4 U15 Emily Ford ran well for 5.04.44 and Charlie Quantrill had a great run to score a PB of 5.07.11. U15 Izzy Martin ran well for a PB of 5.08.97, and U13 debutants Kara Gorman ran 5.10.40, and U13 Hugo Mundy 5.23.16, both excellent efforts. Race 5 One of the best Chiltern runs of the evening came from U15 James Holdsworth who won Race 5 convincingly in a PB of 4.47.63. Fellow U15 Callum Powell ran 4.56.45 and Jack Martin logged the best U13 time of the evening with an impressive 4.58.59. Vet 55 Ian Lawson ran 4.59.58 and U15 Lily Jessop-Tranter ran good PB of 5.00.13. Race 6 U17 Matt Evans was a fraction outside his PB with 4.39.52. U15 Alex Hughes ran a good 4.46.34 and U17 Frankie Baxter got her season going with 4.54.75. Race 7 U17 Max Baxter ran a big PB of 4.30.90 with fellow U17 Ethan McCall running 4.41.91, a second outside his best. Race 8 Four U17 men ran this one with three gaining new bests. Isaac Jessop-Tranter ran very well to log 4.19.52 with John Nickless taking ten seconds off his PB with 4.21.13. Euan Pinder was off his best with 4.25.59 and debutant Ash Finch ran an impressive 4.27.00. Race 9 After a very fast opening lap U17s Oakley Denson and Alden Collier faded a little with Oakley running 4.06.65 and Alden 4.12.74. Good Evening, Race Report fans. It seems odd to say it after all this time, but the Spring Marathons are back! And my goodness are they back. Huge congratulations to Mike ‘Tiny’ Turney for a brilliant PB at today’s Manchester Marathon, in a time of 2.52.02. He was joined by Ali Young in 3.07.31 and John Walker in 5.34.48. Truly brilliant running. Well done!
