A Happy New Year to all, Xmas is over and you need to shed those mince pies!
A new year brings new challenges and the time to set new targets. Obviously to reach those targets most of us need to train hard
and prepare for races meticulously. Work out how you are going to achieve your goals and if you need any help please contact me by e-mail (see below). I can offer you a wealth of advice. What I can promote are the Tuesday training sessions held at Beckfoot
coordinated by Andy Nicoll which start next week. I will be there taking part and I will be there if you need to talk me about anything.
The detailed training sessions will appear on the forum soon.
A newsletter will appear soon under Vets News listing all the up and coming races and of special interest will be the BMAF Road Relays on
12th May at Sutton Coalfield where the club will be putting on a 53 seater coach to try and get as many teams as possible taking part at this very special event. More to follow in the Newsletter.
In the meantime I need names for the Yorkshire Vets Cross Champs - Doncaster Sunday Feb 19th! Men and Women, entries to me or Sue Beaconsall.

The qualifications for free team entry are for athletes who in the last two years have run a sub 32mins men and 38mins women, when I was first emailed by the race organiser this was not mentioned.
I apologise to any athlete I have contacted who may not have this required standard, and who I may have risen their hopes of free team entry.
I have till the 11th of May to enter teams, would you please let me know if you are available for team selection and meet the above standard.

Heptonstall |

2011 Ladies Champion
Aly Raw

6 harriers started the 2nd Heptonstall fell race taking in 15 miles of the upper Calder valley with 3,000 feet of climbing which is turning into a bit of a local classic. Numbers were down from the club possibly due to the Lads Leap race the day before, but that did not deter Dave Stephenson who was first vet 50 and second harrier home. Yours truly managed 2 miles before retiring with an achilles injury. Ex harrier Tim Midgeley won the race now competing for Horsforth, whilst first lady was Vicky Horrocks closely followed by Sue Fulton. Adam Worrallo took maximum points with a solid run finishing 14th overall. It was a lovely sunny spring day and with a prayer at the start from the local vicar an inspirational venue well worth checking out for Sylvia Plaths grave. Results on the FRA website. Next up is the English Championship Coledale Horseshoe. See you there injuries permitting.
