Despite being a hot day it was also a windy one which slowed the runners for the first 6km. However after passing the blue borage fields of Bledlow the wind was behind the runners resulting in a fast finish to the race. Pete Warburton finished first for Hillingdon and also was first over 50 in a time of 38:43 ( 16th place). Paul Hull finished just behind Pete in 17th place in 39:00. Dave Newman continued his comeback finishing 28th in 40:57 just beating an under par Dave Smith in 29th in 41:16. Jade Nettleton, the sole lady representing Hillingdon finished 47th in the women's race in a time of 57:14.

Nevertheless there were still some very good performances amongst the 37 athletes who took part.
The race was won comfortably by Andy Symonds who started off with a steady first lap and then accelerated away on the second lap of the course before finishing with a final time of 16:43.
There are two more races in the series taking place on Thursday 12th August and Thursday 9th of September.

Some of you may not be aware that for the last few years a poker club has been organised on the last Friday of each month. Sean and Deborah Butler handed over the reins of the poker club earlier in the year to Dave Smith. Although they set a high standard to live up to, the poker club continues to thrive and regularly attracts around twenty players each month. We are a friendly bunch and the evening is full of banter and plenty of laughs. The majority of players were complete novices when they started, including myself, and we are keen for other club members to join us. The cost of the evening is £10.50 Play starts prompt at 7.30pm on the last Friday of every month. If you would like to come along but need a bit of encouragement speak to Dave Smith or Harry Wild. For the top ten players on the money list for 2010 please read on. [ Read the rest ... ] David SmithonSunday 04 July 2010 - 20:43  News Archive
