    I did the Brighton 10k yesterday, really enjoyed it. Was not sure what to expect as have my ultra training miles in my legs. Weather was just about perfect and the course nice and flat and plenty of room on the course. I got a PB of 48.54 which I am obviously delighted with. Probably the...

    Did the Bognor10 yesterday. Had a few teething problems, failure of the timing mechanism being the biggest problem! They also sadly had many Marshalls abused by locals over road closures. I saw two incidents of cars trying to enter the race route with marshalls pleading with them not to. I...

    I should be there - will be an early start for me as its an 8.30am race start - I like early runs but this is a bit early! Had not realised that this is the first time it has been run. Got my race number in the post yesterday. I was going to do the Mine Pie run but looks like its too late now!

    [Albion] 20 years ago. How crowds have changed !!

    I was at that game, just my 5th at Gillingham as refused to go until Belloti had been sacked from the club.Looking back the crowd the game before (also midweek) v Lincoln was only 1,036. Also the next game was A v Hereford in the FACup, not a fun day as they were still a little bitter from...

    Nice running over the weekend to all, both the NSC speed merchants and the mad people who did the Beachy Head Marathon. I did a long training run as its now just under 7 weeks to my ultra marathon. Slowed my pace slightly and felt OK after the 20 miles, the thought of a further 11 miles was...

    I would be interested in this. Save on average £2 an event. Not sure what you have to do to satisfy being an official club. I would be happy to do the accounts if not too much required. Happy to help look into this.

    Forgot about the 7am start! If you do it and you need to get a bus to the start leave very very early as the transport a little chaotic! They put on special buses but they fill up very quickly and if you are on route a lot whizz by as already full. Also very few do the marathon, think it was...

    After the experiance of my first marathon I had to take 2 years off, was not really fit enough to have attempted it. Took 5.46 and was painful, no idea how I got round. I then set a target of sub 5 hours as I got back into running, missed that in numbers 2 & 3 so had to keep going, then there...

    http://www.limassolmarathon.com/ I did the Limassol one. A great day as they have a 10k and a HM the same day. It was in March and the weather was good, warm but not as hot as the Brighton marathon in April! It is pretty much all along the seafront so you also get a breeze.

    GSR on Sunday for me. Having had a tooth out on Monday and TBH feeling pretty rough all week I only decided to take part once I had done a gentle jog on Saturday morning. My original plan was to stick with the 80 minute pacer but I decided against that as I didnt want to risk my health by...

    I contacted Bright10 about the clash with Barns Green HM. They are urgently looking to see if it can be moved. B&H council refused to grant them permission for the usual 2nd Sunday in October date due to another unnamed event taking place that day. They have now formally requested Sunday 7th...

    Enjoyed the Bright10 run on Sunday. Beautiful sunrise and that was about all we saw of the sun as the cloud drifted in for the race. Met up with a few mates pre race and one runs roughly the same speed as me so we set off between the 80 & 90 minute pacers as both aiming for around 85 mins. So...
