Magpie Rob Feb 2013 9:04pm, 9 Feb 2013 2,914 posts	Magpie Rob Last Surrey league fixtures and really impressed that our club had 30 runners in the men's race. We fielded 32 last time out too and those two performances lifted us from 7th and facing relegation to a respectable 5th overall (9 teams in the division). We were only 1 point behind the third place club today. Great spirit in the men's team at the moment too so hoping that this will translate into improved turnout in the women's team next season

Garfield Feb 2013 12:31pm, 10 Feb 2013 2,391 posts	Garfield Thanks Curly. Yes, the hills were cruel...unfortunately I had to walk a lot of them...lungs would not permit me to run them, or I would have paid for it. It just flags up something I need to work on!
Curly45 Feb 2013 4:48pm, 10 Feb 2013 1,532 posts	Curly45 Provisional result shows me as 32nd which is my highest position of the year (by one place but shh). Pretty happy with that overall, despite having to stop and losing about 3-4 places on the second lap. Stuff for me to work on too for next season. That's good I think as it brings new challenges
