Jo's Jogging Journal 9-15 September

As  per usual for a Saturday morning, PWR’s were found far and wide this week looking for
their 9am 5k fix. Most were to be seen at Bromley, where Andrew Breese, Natalie
Compton and Sacha Townsend all achieved new PB’s. The Laing family took a trip
to Greenwich parkrun (which isn’t in Greenwich, should you be wondering, but in
Eltham) where Richard achieved a new PB on his second run. Stephen and Siggy
Robson ran the Hilly Fields course in reverse to celebrate the first anniversary
of their event. Spot the parkrun celebrity in their results this week. Finally,
PWR’s were also spotted at Bexley, Maidstone and Orpington.

Ray Sievey decided he needed more of a challenge on Saturday and ran in the Hazelmere Bolt for Bolty 5 mile trail race. Clearly Ray is a cross country convert following the joy of the Thunder Run back in July. Good to see your name in a results list Ray, its been a while. We were starting to worry that you had replaced your running hobby with fishing instead.

Saturday  afternoon was the annual Will Bolton Memorial Relays at Sparrows Den on a tough
cross country course, not helped by the mornings deluge of rain. Think it was a bit of a mud fest.
Never to be put off by the weather, PWR entered one men’s team who came 23rd out of 45
teams. Well done!

Sunday was fairly quiet on the racing front with many club members getting themselves
prepared for upcoming marathons and half marathons.
We had three members make the journey up north to take part in the Great North Run,
this very busy and popular, but probably once in a lifetime half marathon, known for its crowd support
throughout the whole length of the course.
