Julie also WON the women’s (55 plus) category in both the open and county veterans events and Grant was second male veteran (40 plus), in both the open and county veterans race.

FVS results:

118	Andrea	WESTCOTT	26:12	FV35	PB. Bronze team.
127	Paul	HOLGATE	27:49	MV50

There were 140 finishers. The second race in the series is on Wednesday 8th October.

PB PPPB for Maddie

There was a personal best for improving Spartan MADDIE PRITCHARD in the Preston Park Parkrun, Brighton on Saturday morning. She was third woman in 20 minutes 27 seconds.

Wicked Walden

TIM SABAN ran the “Wicked Walden” 10K in 44 minutes 23 seconds. He was 51st in the race at Saffron Walden.

Biggleswade

Just 12 hours after enjoying the club’s 30th anniversary celebrations, two Spartans were on Biggleswade Track chasing fast times at the end of season open meeting. The excesses of the previous night didn’t affect GRANT RAMSAY who came second in the 5000 metres with a time of 16 minutes 22 seconds, his fastest for five years. STEVE MAYFIELD finished 4th in the 800 metres in 2 minutes 22.8 seconds taking over two seconds off his personal best (PB) from three years ago.

Spartans’ GRANT RAMSAY has recovered well since taking part in the European Championships Marathon in Turkey. Much of this down to the ongoing support from his sponsors Osteopathy First in Stevenage, in the form of gym and strength work from Rob Hill, which is greatly appreciated.

Jim Tops 70%

JIM BROWN ran the Last Friday 5K round the Serpentine in a slightly disappointing 23 minutes 47 seconds but it was good enough to lift his series average past 70 to 70.4%.

Windsor Half Marathon

ISABEL GREEN ran in the Windsor half marathon in a time of 1 hour 54 minutes 48 minutes and was 806th out of the 4,097 finishers. It was a surprisingly warm day and the course was undulating but very scenic. The long finishing straight was towards the castle, and in the distance she was sure the queen was waving from an upstairs window! Well, it was a hot day.

KERSTIN WEINER was 2,301st in 2:12:37.

Ely Marathon

DAVID BOWKER ran a rather flat and warm Ely Marathon on Sunday with a time of 4 hours 11 minutes. He was surprised by the amount of road in what was advertised as a multi terrain event and commented that there were some very long straight sections which were not for the feint hearted. He says his highlight of the day was running alongside several miles of onion fields!

Barnstaple

ROGER BIGGS travelled to North Devon for the inaugural running of The Barnstaple Marathon. The organisers had managed to find a basically flat course using the Tarka Trail on both sides of the River Taw.

On a glorious warm day, Roger ran a good even event, but still had to find a sprint finish to cross the line in 4:59:59, his best marathon in 2014.

30th Anniversary

Fairlands Valley Spartans enjoyed their 30th Anniversary Ball at Aston Golf Course on Friday evening. The actual anniversary falls on 2 November 2014. The exact day of this year’s Stevenage Marathon and Half Marathon.

JIM AND LIZ WIN 5K

JIM AND LIZ WIN 5K

Steve Second at St. Paul’s Walden

There was a superb turnout with many fantastic performances for Thursday night’s warm and humid Handicap 5K on the Fairlands and Martins Way course in Stevenage. 47 runners took part including 17 newcomers to Fairlands Valley Spartans

Winner on the night was JIM MOORE, paced round by wife Clare, in a fantastic time of 28 minutes 52 seconds (3:08 quicker than handicap). Newcomer LIZ CARVELL was first female over the line, in 31:42 (1:18 ahead of handicap), closely followed by second male Callum Beasley, in a new personal best (PB) of 22:03. Another newcomer, Daniel Thorby, was third man home, in a very quick 18 minutes 23 seconds. Sofia Carpenter was second female and 10^th overall, in 24:50, and Sue Hamer third woman in25:54, an improvement of 45 seconds on her PB..

Daniel Thorby’s 18:23 was the quickest time of the evening, with Davie Stafford second fastest in a new PB time of 18:56. David Bowker was third quickest, in 19:55.

The fastest female was Nicola Haberland in 23:27, with Sofia second fastest (24:50) and Hayley Faulkner third fastest in a new PB of 24:53.

In handicap races the slower runners, based on previous performances, start first. In theory if everyone runs “to form” they will finish together. Therefore the winners are the greatest improvers.
