Birthday Get Together

Hello all,

I am going to turn 30 on the 28th of August for the first and last time.

I was going to go for a few drinks and maybe a bite to eat after the hill rep session on Tuesday the 28th and would like it if you would all join me.
We could even enter the quiz if a few people come who are a bit (a lot) cleverer than me.

Hope that a lot of you will be able to attend and don't worry I won't hold it against you for long if I don't see you there.

Could any one interested in eating or just going for a drink please let me know so I have an idea on numbers.

Thanks Carl

Border Harriers Track & Field Open Meeting this weekend

Every year Border Harriers host two annual track & field open meetings at the Sheepmount Stadium in Carlisle. The second and final meeting of 2012 takes place this weekend, on Sunday 19th August.

For a full list of the events at the meeting, see further details HERE. The Border meetings are friendly, low-key meetings, and a great opportunity to have a go at track & field events no matter what standard you compete at.

Entries are accepted on the day at £4 for first event and £3.00 for each additional event. The first events get underway at 12 noon, but note that entries for all events will not be accepted after 11.50am.

Results from the meeting in April earlier this year are online HERE.

If anyone interested in a carshare, please get in touch as I'm going up myself.

Lakeland 100 race video

I have just posted a video of my race at the weekend. There are a few problems with the sound and I did less filming in the later stages as I got more knackered, but it gives a flavour of how my race unfolded
