Barcelona Half Marathon

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

Simon Black reports:

The sunshine went missing for a day in Barcelona and with Kathryn injured and sadly only able to support today, it was left to Simon to wear the Dashers top with pride. A PB by 2 1/2 minutes meant it was worth the early start

Lake district Hike

Sunday, January 24th, 2010

Zoe Smart reports;

A group of 5 Dashers went up to the Lake District weekend of 9 Jan for a pretty extreme 13 mile hike from Threlkeld to Helvellyn in the snow and ice. Setting off early in the morning (with two experienced mountaineers), we were lucky enough to see the sun rise and shine across Blencathra, opposite the route up to our first peak. Wading through deep snow was great fun, although it made for tough going until crampons were donned, making the climb up to Clough Head a lot less exhausting. Conditions across the rest of the peaks surprised us all, with a windchill at around minus 20 (!), beautiful spindrift and stunning virgin snow all around - looked and felt a bit like a North Pole expedition at times :) Ice axes and GPS came in very handy and I’ve learnt that bags of nuts are definitely not the right snack to take in those conditions when ravenous - struggling to open the bag and fumbling to eat them in gloves is near impossible (fingers froze within minutes of having them exposed!). Reaching the summit of Helvellyn at 3117ft felt like a real feat in the conditions and locals certainly seemed surprised at our achievement. Thai food and beers were well deserved by all that night…  A big thanks to Brent for organising the weekend, which was tough going and magical - looking forward to the next Dashers adventure :)

Sandhurst XC - 22nd November 2009

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

If you look in the OED, I’m sure that “Sandhurst” must mean “rain” in some regional dialect, because yet again the weekend was anything but dry, and the conditions underfoot were a little soft in places.

Results to come (see www.tvxc.org.uk for all the results), but in the meantime here are some photos (click the thumbnails to go to the large images).

A fine cadre of athletes!

Belated birthday congratulations to Elaine, who recently celebrated her 30th birthday with an afternoon game of rounders, and later in fine style at a choice selection of pubs. A good time was had by all… as the following photos clearly demonstrate!

Elaine’s 30th Birthday

Everyone was quite sore the next day, and many experienced dehydration and headaches. My advice is to give up rounders…

Woodland 5 and a bit

Thursday, July 30th, 2009

It was a dark and stormy night…

Well done to everyone who ran what is a fun, but quite tough mid-summer off-roader about Crowthorne woods.

Results to come when they are available, but in the meantime here are some photos. It was far too gloomy to take action photos, so apologies for the graininess and lack of colour.

As always, contact me (chrisbradfield at gmail dot com) if you want your photo removed, or if you would like a higher-resolution/colour-corrected image.

As ever, email me to have bad hair days straightened out, or smiley smiley days emailed to you for safekeeping…

Apologies if I didn’t get you tonight – I was playing with a different camera, and struggling to keep it dry! Excuse the odd colour cast… I forgot to change the white balance. I can correct this if there’s a photo that you want.

Runnymede Relays

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

Well done to everyone who ran on a stinkingly hot day in the park.

Team C finished 14th overall in an excellent 2:50:24, with Jules Algar running two impressively quick legs on a very hot day.

They were closely followed by team B, who were only 20s behind at the end of the 3rd leg!

The all-ladies team C put in some excellent performances, and finished 3rd all-female team against some strong opposition.
