Short digest this week - in part because I had very few submissions. Please
note that next week's digest needs to be complete by Sunday evening.
This Wednesday
- at the Bedfont Club
We will be having an informal run and
social at the Bedfont & Feltham FC and Social Club, The Orchard, Hatton Road, Bedfont,
Middlesex TW14 9QT. Get there from 17:30 to get changed and ready to run at
18:00. We are still engaged in area exploration runs - individually or in
groups.
The club has
ample parking and is convenient from Hatton Cross tube station and local buses. The club
has a bar, subsidized for members, and for formal socials we will organise to
use the second room and bring in food. Note that food is not normally available
from the bar.
Contact me
if you need to be reminded of any other details of the Bedfont Club (or check the back
issues of this digest) - or turn-up on Wednesday and ask (no one will be turned
away).

The cfp (Club Featured Parkrun) at Dinton Pastures attracted five runners,
none of whom had run there before. Neil Frediani (26:27) was the fastest
on the day while Alan Anderson (34:53) achieved the best age grade score with
65.31%. Chris Kelly’s club record of 21:08 is safe for another week.
Other tourists included Zara Thorn (30:08) who became the first to run at
Preston Park in Brighton while being a current member. Ian and Caroline
Cockram both ran there before they joined us - this week they ran at Dulwich for
the first time and set new club records of 23:32 and 29:47 respectively.
 Ray Hampton (34:07) continued on the comeback trail at Conwy in North Wales
and the club total moved on to 433 parkruns
Kay Trinder (20:49) had another
good run at Woking and shaved a few more seconds off her club record there.
Her pole vaulting training is obviously doing her no harm at all, maybe more of
us should try it!

Club Featured parkrun Saturday 11th August - Dinton Pastures Report
Six of us with links to BA or the running club ran at Dinton Pastures on
Saturday - pictured from left to right Roderick Hoffman, dream mile regular
James Greaves (consecutive weeks with his picture in the digest!), Trish McCabe,
Neil Frediani, Alan Friar and Alan Anderson (attracting most interest due to his
"500" shirt).
The course involved two different laps around the lakes with just enough in
common to the laps to get you confused as to where you were. It was well
marshalled and had good facilities including the cafe but at £1.50 an hour it
felt better value if you came with friends (thanks Trish and Alan A).

Dear Ed.
Yesterday my XC time was 36.40 and I did not meet any tigers on the
way because last time out I did!
Hopefully, colleagues will know what that is.
