Nice when it all goes to plan

2012 - BMAF Relays at Derby
Photo by Trin Woodcock
In this era of ‘political correctness’ it is sometimes
a little surprising to find really odd combinations. The BMAF has chosen its
cross country relay formats to include all the ladies, with ages ranging
from 35 onwards, paired with men over the age of 65. Last weekend’s event,
hosted admirably by Derby AC, served to highlight some of the idiosyncrasies
of this somewhat peculiar pairing.
The young ladies on the first leg, most of whom had
selected 18mm spikes in view of the underfoot conditions, raced away from
the start, leaving the rest of us – mostly older than their parents – to
fight it out far behind them. I found myself engaged in a duel with the
eventual winners from Bingley – not much changes – similar scenario ten
years ago! We swapped places half a dozen times and it was just a tad
frustrating to be passed finally with less than 200m remaining. However as I
was the sole member of the Blackheath team on the day it didn’t make much
difference to the final result.
Full results should be available on the BMAF website.

2012 - SVAC Inter-Club Final - Ashford
Full results on the
SCVAC website
WE WON!
Well guys, we did it! Many of you were there, of
course, and won't need telling!
Officially, we won the SCVAC Masters League Final
today by 9.5 points from Abingdon AC, who sneaked in front of Herne Hill
Harriers in the last few events. It's actually the largest winning margin
for the Final for a few years. You'll recall, we lost by just one point last
year, and by four points the year before. The match was the usual nail
biter, and looked like being decided on the 4x400 relay, though we had a few
points in hand before that, I suspect, with hindsight.
I am sending this out in a hurry, because I will be
spending the next couple of days travelling out to the French Alps, and I'm
unsure what my e-mail facilities will be until I get to Chamonix, where I
will be spending the next 6 weeks.
Thank you all so much, those who took part and made
today's win a reality. Thank you also to those who came and cheered. Adrian
Stocks has care of the League trophy and will be parading it at the
Clubhouse on Wednesday evening, if any of you fancy going and grabbing a
share of the limelight. Adrian also has the trophy for our win in the Kent
Masters League this year to wave at the unbelievers!
The full results from the match will be on the SCVAC
web site before long, I'm sure.
This is a BIG win. As you may have heard me say
before, I firmly believe that the SCVAC League Final is one of the top three
Masters track and field events in the country. To win it again places us
right up there as the best squad on the day.
So, enjoy the feeling of being champions again. You
are.
Here's to a repeat next year, eh?

A message from Tom
There are some changes to the League this year. The
content of the first two league fixtures have been swapped around. This
makes excellent sense in terms of getting the best out of the track at
Dartford, which will now host the third fixture. Those of you with memories
will recall that the Dartford fixture last year was rather poor.
The other major Masters events regionally and
nationally are:
BMAF Indoor Championships - Lee Valley Stadium,
Sat/Sun 17/18 March 2012. Entries on-line, don't delay.
