NATIONAL SIX STAGE RELAYS (OCTOBER 2011)

The first six completed teams out of 76 clubs:- 1 Aldershot Farnham & District 1:44:51; 2 Birchfield 1:45:22; 3 Newham & Essex Beagles 1:45:30; 4 Leeds City 1:45:33; 5 Swansea Harriers 1:46:15; 6 Bristol & West AC 1:46:48.

Here is my account and interviews which concerned the runners at the sharp end with also the words of the Southern Six stage road relay Champions Newham & Essex Beagles. In the race itself Birchfield tested Aldershot in the latter stages but, mainly due to Aldershot's Andy Vernon running the second fastest time of the day on leg 4, the other big rivals Newham & Essex Beagles found it an impossible task to take the title.A huge gap had developed after the first two runners had completeed stage five well ahead. Newham had the sixth fastest runner of the day Keith Gerrrard on the last leg. However Birchfields' runner on the final leg was no match for International marathon runner Ben Moreau, who brought Aldershot home clear.

Florence marathon 2010

Ben Whitby bashes out a 2.15.12 in crap conditions............ We wish it was like this!! A solo run by ben in the florence marathon 2010 brought a pb by 3 minutes in his 4th marathon!!!! The conditions were poor with rain, a delayed start (as usual!), and a feisty course. Ben went through half way in 67.10 with little company and pulled though to catch a couple of dudes in the latter stages that did the blowers.......
