September, an “A” (mens) team, a Women’s Team, a
Veterans’ team, a “B” team (probably all men) and a
“C” team (mixed men & women). Anyone who was amongst the
first 50 to reply has got a place. We also have 6 reserves and 8 who
might be fit by then – please stand by – with 60 on the team list,
several of you reserves will be called up.

you never know!
Harewood 10 mile race – Sunday 10 October (10/10/10)
We need about 60 marshals to help on this day.
If you’re available, please email me!
We also need help handing out our entry forms at local
races. The recommended technique is to wait at the end of the race
finishing funnel and thrust them into runners’ hands. But if
you’re running the race, another method is to put forms under the wipers
of car windows in the race car park. The next race where we’d like
entry forms handed out are the Pudsey 10k. If you can help, please email
me!

Brig
Bash 5 mile (from George Black)
Managed to
finish the Brig Bash 5 mile race on Wednesday 7 July. My time was 35:20 on a
certified course and I was first over 70. Quite pleased as I had only been able
to run 25 miles in the previous 2 months due to a hamstring injury and ran the
first 2 miles 'steady'. I have been doing a good bit of hard cycling so this
has obviously kept up some sort of fitness, Only 8 weeks to the World Duathlon
