It was a great evening, enjoyed by all I think. The first of many athletic meetings for Racing 795.
It was a well organised event and the cream cakes lived up to expectation. Does anyone know who won the holiday to ferns :lol:

Good night for running, and a great showing by the club
Tom & Joy both picked up prizes which was great to see
Tom managing a stonking 20 minutes and he still getting over his injury woes!!
The Racing 795 ladies team also won the ladies team event, only SBR didn't expect a winner in that category and so had no prizes !!! :shock:
Still, fair play to the girls, it's a great achievement to pick up a victory like that on the first outing. There was hungry talk of the upcoming cross country season afterwards - can they continue their winning ways? :D

Nah, no story really, Martin pulled up beside me and offered some encouragement over the final half mile, then pulled away from me with about 500m to go. I gave it socks at the finish and caught a few others napping right on the line, but missed out on Martin - he was easing up anyway and hadn't seen me coming.
next time ;)
