Heatwave in Hants

The Fleet Pre London Half Marathon was run in unseasonably warm conditions by a somewhat depleted Team Swift. Son Eden hadn't been able to do serious training and Milton's other granddad was likewise sidelined.

Roger, however, did turn out despite having not run for 10 days due to post Barcelona Marathon chest problems and was still the best of the bunch with a time of 1 hr 37 mins. YJ was next in 1hr 44 mins 15 secs being placed just outside the top third and daughter Sally produced a PB of 2hr 6 mins about three-quarters of the way down the field.

What's all this to do with fell running? None, but it does explain my absence last weekend.

Saturday 21st

This coming weekend marks the first anniversary of our initial Zod Sepooc squad run (a Coopes Doz in reverse). Does anyone fancy a repeat on Saturday? We can miss out the race up the Pike that EtU and YJ did in the afternoon. Alternatively we could do a Zod S... or even an ...epooc.
