BUSY WEEKEND FOR ISTEAD’S RUNNERS

 

It may be the start of the holiday season but it was still a busy weekend for Istead and Ifield’s athletes.

 

Keeping themselves busy on Saturday at the track and field meeting at Dartford, seven club members managed to take part in a total of 27 events. Ranging from 100 metres to 5000 metres on the track and from the shot putt to the triple jump in the field, the intrepid multi-eventers finished in fourth position from seven teams in the Southern League Division 4E event.

 

At Swanley on Sunday, Richard Storr was the club’s sole competitor in the 21st Whiteoak Triathlon. Richard completed the sprint event in 1 hr 52mins and 19 seconds, coming home in 188th place from 243 competitors.

 

Two local road races were held on Sunday and Istead and Ifield Harriers had a good turnout at both. The races were held in pretty tough hot conditions, so there was little chance of any particularly fast times. The club had 17 runners from a total of 228 runners at the Cliffe Woods 10km road race, which raises money each year for Cerebral Palsy. The club’s highest finisher in either race was Simon Parrin, who came in 10th place from 541 competitors at the Dartford Half Marathon. The only top three finishers in their age category this weekend were from our supervets, Barbara Ockenden 1st female over 55 and Steve Cason, 3rd over 50, both at Cliffe Woods.

 

Results: Cliffe Woods:- Derek George 11th 40:04; Joe Cumberland 14th 40:49; Andy Archer 20th 41:38; Steve Cason 30th 43:26; Chris Thompson 37th 43:56; Jackie King 46th 45:10; Ian Creasey 50th 45:18; Sally Whitelaw 63rd 46:48; Jason Beaney 109th 51:11; Sue Beecham 116th 52:44; Alex Thompson 117th 52:55; Sarah Dand 131st 54:36; Barbara Ockenden 132nd 54:37; Charlotte Greenwood 163rd 58:22; Jackie Day 170th 59:48; Barbara Webling 187th 64:11; Aimee Keeping 215th 74:17.
