Eye Community Runners

16th November 09

The 4th Club Championship 2009/2010 race took place on Sunday 15th November at Shouldham Warren. On race day, however, the sun was shining and the wind was almost non-existent. Ten Eye Community Runners turned up and there was great speculation of whether to run in spikes or trainers. The course is on quite firm sandy tracks although there are some parts near the river that can get quite soft. During 'warm up' there were mixed feelings on wearing spikes or not and in the end about half of the runners decided to run in spikes while the others opted for normal racers or trainers. This was a two lap course of 9k with some stiff hills. As the race started the two Chris’s and Tony Gray led ECR runners and after the first hill Tony went in front with Chris Dimmock in hot pursuit followed closely by Chris Burgess. Roslyn Loutit and Yvonne Goodsell battled for the Lady Vet place with Ros proving too strong for Yvonne on the way round and taking the lead. During the second lap Tony Gray faltered with a problem with his calf. Chris D and Chris B both took advantage of Tony’s misfortune and went ahead. Chris D proving the stronger of the two finishing first for the club. Even so Tony still ran brilliantly to finish 2nd V60 overall. The first ECR lady to finish was Roslyn once again proving that she has got herself into great shape and also claiming the 3rd LV45 overall. Mike Wright splitting the first two ladies coming in next with Yvonne Goodsell soon after. Gill Bates with a strong finish and Linda Oswin just outside 50 minutes claiming the 3rd LV55 prize, followed by Jane Haynes just ahead of Tony Dwight finishing with a very surprising turn of speed in the last 100 meters to finish in sub 56 minutes.

8th November 09

As usual with the Bushfield Frostbite there was a high turnout with nearly 500 runners, nineteen of which came from Eye. First home for the club was Darren Ping (20th) with Ros Loutit the first lady at 264. Eye finished in 16th place on the day, missing 15th by only 2 points. It was good to see some new faces to the Frostbite series, with new members, Mark Wells, Darren Spearing and Andy Short all looking as if they enjoyed their first Frostbite race. It was also good to see Jane Haynes make a return to competition, having been out of action for nearly four years following injury. Next Frostbite on December 13th.

Don't forget the next event in the Club Championship takes place on Sunday 15th. It is the Cross Country race at Ryston.

12th October 09

Twenty six Eye runners out at the Great Eastern with a further 18 helping to man the start and finish areas. Thanks to everyone who took part and helped. With a new course and good weather conditions there were at least six pb's amongst Eye runners and I expect there are more, if you are one of them please let me know.

4th October 09

The new Frostbite season got under way today at St.Neots,with good running weather in what was an extreme contrast to last years persistent rain. First home from the sixteen club members who ran the event was Darren Ping (24th) with Roslyn Loutit first lady at 267. It was good to see Tony Gray and Simon Lovell return to competition, finishing in postions 141 and 400 respectively. Eye came 14th overall out of 17 teams.

4th August 09

26th June 09

The second race was the Eye event in the Peterborough GP Series. The numbers for all races have increased this year and the Eye race saw 210 complete the 5k course with a further 44 the 3k race. Thanks to all those who helped with marshalling. I know the runners appreciate the support given.

The 2008/9 Club Championship reached its climax last weekend with the Bourne 5 Miles which saw the senior mens title go to Darren Ping with just one point seperating rival Jon Massingham. Darren and Jon were 2nd and 3rd respectively in the race. The vet mens title is retained by Chris Burgess, with Claire Home taking the senior ladies and Yvonne Goodsell retaining the vet ladies.

No sooner had Jon equalled the new 5k record set by Darren he went one better and took 16 seconds off at the 1st race in the 5k Series creating a new record of 17:03, which ets the pace for the remainder of the series. Darren set a new record of 28:22 for the 5 Mile distance at Bourne just three days earlier.

Due to a late change the teams weren't as evenly balanced as previous years therefore the gap between first and last was over 20 mins. First team home for Eye was 'Eye Sore' with Tony Dalton giving the team an early boost which Darren Ping used to advantage on stage four. Darren finished in 10th place on the stage.
