Happy Christmas to you all Enjoy your Christmas break but don’t eat or drink too much. Go out for a run somewhere in the next week. With the shortest day of the winter now in the past (it was on Friday December 21) we can look forward to the days getting longer. And before we...

New club records set in 2018 The website has now been updated with the new club records that were set in the recent summer – so for example Grace’s McCullough many under 13 records, Cameron Wells’ under 15 pole vault record and both Sarah Killick-Bird and Lois Drummie with new senior ladies steeplechase and 400...

Last Thursday evening training of 2018 at Imberhorne coming up this week Just a reminder that this coming Thursday December 13 is the last Thursday evening training session of the year at Imberhorne. Please wear something Christmassy for this week’s training. We will be back at Imberhorne on the other side of Christmas and the...

Sorry that we cancelled Thursday training at Imberhorne so late Our apologies for calling off Thursday evening training on the track at Imberhorne at the very last minute.

During the evening we will also present a number of cups and trophies to those of our athletes who have performed well in the summer...

Back to training as normal this week As we expected numbers at training last Thursday evening were somewhat down because of the half-term holiday. And Sunday morning training saw perhaps the first winter-y feeling weather of the autumn/winter. We expect to be back to normal numbers at training for this coming week. Just a reminder...

Training as normal this week Although we are now into half-term week we will still be holding our normal training sessions over this coming week. We do realise of course that some of you will be away. Dates for matches in the summer of 2019 We have just received provisional details of most of our...
