A third of the programme has been completed, the table is taking early shape but much will change in the next month and all will look very different by the time we get to Langley and Conwy. Already, though, five have run the seven races to quality for the 2013 competition.…
Thursday June 13th. It stopped raining in Wilmslow around 4pm, but was forecast to return in the evening. The Roaches was also dry but noticeably colder. Mike Hill mentioned the downpour at the end of the race last year. For some of us it came two-thirds through, Sharon and I…

Sat after a race having cream tea, the rolling countryside in the distance, basking in the sun, then we get to put Alan Turner in the ‘Stocks’ and throw sponges at him …… what’s not to love ?? Where has this race been hiding? I loved it! From the moment we…
I first became aware of Ken Burgess of Altrincham AC when I reached the Vet 60 age category and numbers were thinning in direct proportion to hair lines. He has won every race I can recall since then, by around a minute a mile in my case. I thought I was six…
