GBR Big Trophy Presentation

Last night (15/7), Beckenham were invited to the Stragglers HQ in Kingston, to receive our trophy won back in May.

We reckon the group of eight of us, traveled a combined 120miles for this one minute and eight seconds moment.  Was it worth it?

Of course it was! Remember where you where when you witnessed this.

In case you didn’t realise, Beckenham RC are the Green Belt Relay 2010 Mixed Team Champions.  Thanks to Stragglers for the hospitality and the trophy.

Wellington 10k

They thought they could slip this one under the radar…..

Whilst the club toiled away in the summer heat at Cliffe Woods, here’s evidence of 4 Beckenham Runners taking part in their own renegade Grand Prix at the Wellington 10 in Devon.

John, Dean, Andy & Nicky (hint: if the correct photo isn’t showing when the page loads press refresh)

Results to follow……..but I’m sure they did well (although Nicky is smiling to much to have run a 10k properly!)

Herne Hill Velodrome

Its official, the 2nd Annual Beckenham Runners trip to the Herne Hill Velodrome will fall on Saturday 14 August 2010 from 2.30pm to 3.30pm.  As for Coach Jason, a statement from Herne Hill Bookings reads:

“I’ll ask Jason, otherwise we have plenty of other enthusiastic experienced coaches”

For those new, here is last year’s report.  For around a fiver, you get an hour on a velodrome with a qualified coach and free hire of track bicycles and helmets.  Its good fun, providing it doesn’t rain.  Any questions see Will (top of photo) at the club.

Well done Ian!

If Orpington was hot, Bewl 15 (miles!) must have been been hotter. A super time of 2.34.55 (chip). Well done Mr. McCarthy!

Weekend round up

4 Runners went round Orpington in blistering heat – well done!

3 Runners went to see the greatest musician that’s ever lived (Bob Dylan) – very well done!

2 Runners successfully looked after a dog.

1 Runner represented Beckenham at the park run, at least he won!

0 Runner photos today, sorry.

P.S. For the record, this was the weekend I did all my marshalling duties for the park run at Crystal Palace, by being the starter, lead cyclist, race marshal and finisher, all in a morning.
