From Mile End to the Arctic circle ...

The main club fixture this weekend was the penultimate Southern Men’s League match, in Mile End, with our team turning out in impressive numbers to finish a very creditable third. Earlier in the week Mo was the fastest of eight Heathsiders tackling the 1500m in Watford, in a PB of 4:10.76.

I count a grand total of 13 athletes as having turned up and taken part in the SML match, with the day’s performance capped by a superb win in the 4x400m relay. Other highlights include a 1.55m high jump for Eddie, a(nother) 800m PB for Richard, a 100m PB for Emmanuel (by 0.1s, but every bit counts) and a lot of hard work by Izaiah (U17) who added several non-scoring events to his 5000m scoring race.

Earlier in the week Mo ran only his second 1500m race, getting a big PB with an impressive 4:10.76 at the regular Watford Wednesday evening open meets, while Will got closer to his PB from days bygone. Meanwhile peripatetic Henry ran an arctic marathon in Norway and the latest batch of parkruns, featuring three Heathside wins, has given Gabi plenty of input for the 5k club handicap in Highgate Woods next Tuesday ...
