Good Evening, fans, from Race Report HQ. I hope you’ve been enjoying this glorious sunshine.
First of all, may I treat you to a quick look back at last weekend’s Pednor 5. Huge thanks are due to all the volunteers who made it possible, both on the day, but also (more importantly) in the months of planning that takes place ahead of the event. You all make it the success that it is. From my quick count, there were 25 Harriers out running the course. St Albans Striders pipped our men for the male team prize, but our women came out victorious! Special shout outs to: Aran Davidson, 3rd overall in 26.28; Adam Shute, 1st M40 in 27.44; Beverley Whitfield, 2nd woman in 30.44; James Malin, 1st junior males in 32.08; and Rebecca Lawson, 1st junior female in 40.37. You can find full results from Pednor here. Good Evening, Race Report fans, on one of the most memorable days of the annual running calendar - London Marathon Day. This year saw not just one, but two major city marathons taking place, with Manchester Marathon making it the UK’s largest day of marathon running.
Happy Easter, Race Report fans. Hope you’ve had a cracking good time. With junior Race Reporter snuggled in her bed, I find myself unexpectedly with time on my hands to write you a missive from a now-sunny Amersham evening.
Without further ado, I am delighted to share the wonderful news that there is now a new smallest Harrier :-) Aran Davidson and Laura Gardner welcomed their second little girl earlier this month. Correspondents reported that she was seen, only days old, at Wendover parkrun. I guess she’ll be a trail runner then… Good Afternoon, Race Report fans, and a Happy Easter, in what will likely be the last report before the holiday. Here’s a quick roundup of some of the early April marathon-ing from the weekend.
Your Race Reporter returns, coming live from a rather drizzly Amersham, with a roundup of racing from the last few weekends.
Hello there, Race Report fans, and welcome to your first Report of 2025! The sun arrived and brought with it a brilliant day of racing for Team Green at the Berkhamsted Half Marathon and five mile ‘Fun Run’ (the organisers have evidently never experienced the five miles of the Pednor loop).
 Many thanks to all participants in the Bran Tub relay.
RESULTS It was a really well supported event with 12 teams toeing the start line. These events require a significant effort to put on and particular thanks are due to those that assisted by helping with marshaling, scribing and refreshments A special mention is also due to those that allowed themselves to be 'press ganged' into running to enable full teams. Finally many thanks to Steve Perkin who, as ever, took responsibility for organising the teams and doing the timing. Wishing everyone a great Christmas. Sue Slade Good Evening, Race Report fans. Well, I don’t know what else you might be doing this evening except reading Race Report. I don’t think there is anything happening, is there?
Fortunately, there are loads of results for you to get your teeth into. A huge congratulations, first of all, to those Chiltern Harriers who were representing their county at the English Schools Track & Field Championships, 12 - 13 July. It is an absolutely huge achievement to even be a part of those events. Do look out for a future report from Steve Perkin to find out how they all got on. A relatively quiet report for you this week, but - pleasingly for me - it’s full of ultra action! (The best kind of action in my books).
Good Evening, Race Report fans, from a Race Report HQ where I am currently multi-tasking between writing this report and watching the football. I’m not finding myself in he mood to come up with a bunch of puns right now…
