Great effort Sprint. I look forward to my next 3 years!
Quicker than I've ever done it Sprint, i did 34.34 in 2010... (missed last year)
Should be promising for you on the road, as the week after doing that, i did a 79.43 half marathon with a slight cold....so your 1hr 21 will be in for some severe revision!
It is a shame - the thought just came to me this morning!! Was obviously too busy obsessing about the cake
and then I was trying to zoom in on your picture to be sure LOL
I doubt we'll be able to get down for any more this year but maybe next year... Are you gonna be able to do them all this year?
Is that the one at Bearwood? We (Marlow) all ran that in tutus last year (as Christmas fairies obviously
) and had a good old giggle. Loved that course!
But ... we moved up t'north in the summer so it's not our local league anymore but it was nice to come back as guests cos we don't get cake locally! And wowsers what beautiful weather - amazing how much warmer a couple of degrees makes things!
Cheers guys, always forget how long the stetch across the field is when you pop out of the treeline. Couldn't catch my teamate 5 steps ahead of me was so flagging. Starting off with a 5.51 minute/mile probably caused that...
Great cameraderie between runners at the events, it's a pleasure to see.
(SG - Wokingham's my aim for sub 1.20 - fingers crossed for injury free until then!)
SB - I do remember all the Marlow runners dressed up, that was good team spirit! its a shame you wont make any of the other races this season, hope to see you at one next year!
Well done to everyone else that ran yesterday, does anyone know when the results will be out?
As part of the BFR committee who host the TVXC site, we are changing over servers (not the best time I know) so once we get that site up and running again the results will be up, we hope to sort it out over the next few days
Hi Sprint,
Any update on the results? We all appreciate the combined efforts going in to the server move, etc. However this is seriously impeding my 2nd claim club banter!

Results until the site goes live - apologies from BFR - working as quick as we can !
Many thanks!
Hi Claire,
Finding out for you. Apologies for the delay in getting the site back up and running.
Just need for Po10 to pick the results up!
Really looking forward to sandhurst next week
will be there for a rare run out. No spikes tho, just the trusty Walshes.
Claire, i did similar, monstered into a puddle thinking it'd be fine, and it coming up to my neck, and having to swim out!
Snuck 5th place tho, so happy with that!
Although I should probably change my pic to the club i represent these days!
I really enjoy these races, it's nice to chat with runners from other clubs
Sprint, there were some pretty hairy bits, i tried to go round most, but sometimes you have to go spark through!
Conditions were certainly worse than 2010 when I last raced this one, did it a min quicker that day despite being less fit!
Claire, depends if your OH was one of the 2 in front of me, i think they were Reading.
I'm not quite sure exactly who was behind, it's the fear of that which keeps you working hard!
Miss the next one, which I'm not too sad about as it's the destroying Handy Cross one!
Sprint sorry to hear you fell and hurt yourself
you should have said top 2 rather than top 10!
Presume he was the younger chap then, as the other Reading guy ahead of me is V40. You don't look that age, so presumably the younger chap!
Long and short of it, was Graham won it comfortably, there was a little gang of 4 of us chasing, then I lost the 3 of them, and had a little battle with another guy and just about stole it on the line.
are his initials LN?
I checked his power of 10 profile, and he seems to be building a head of steam as the year progresses!
80mins at the Marlow half in the worst conditions ever, probably promises a 75-76 elsewhere....
I remember him now, I had a chuckle with him 200metres in saying i'd "give him the money myself" if the 2 chaps who sped off like mentals beat us!
If he's doing that time today for xc, and the Marlow, he certainly needs to get some faster road stuff on his file quick smart...
