Thanks to Helen for arranging for Beckenham to take part in Blackheath and Bromleys club 1 mile race last night. Running a solitary mile for hardened 5k to marathoners was abit daunting for most, which was obvious from the sidelines, about half the club turned up but only to spectate! The competitors were Helen, Alice, Ok now WAVA King Chris, Simon, Steve Farrah, Andy Smalls, Steve Elliot and Ian McCarthy..(have I missed anyone?) who all gave a magnificent account of themselves… the results aren’t up yet but 1st Beck Lady Helen in 5:55 and 1st Beck Man Ok now WAVA King Chris in 5:05. Quote of the night…Ian McCarthy “where’s the water station?”
Well done to the runners who’ve put the rest of us to shame but we will definitely be there in running force next time!
