NYSD Track and Field Report

Run reports

Tuesday saw round 3 of the Track and Field series at Darlington. The 'Striders Race Publicity Department' (SRPD) had been working overtime in the run up to the event. (It's a big department with 10 full time staff and an annual budget of £250,000) They even went to the trouble of advertising it twice in one day on the website - and for that I'm eternally grateful. So, did it work? Well, joining me was... yes, you've guessed it, Mathew Carling. The ladies? Lucy did give a tantalizing hint she was going to attend, but, like Lloyd, I think she's saving herself for the mile relays. Sadly, all this could mean redundancies in the SRPD. The High Jump opened proceedings. It felt like 'Groundhog Day'. The same competitors, the same…

Important Annoucement 15th May

Training

Tomorrow nights sessions will start from ropner park again NOT the club. This is due to the clubhouse showing the Middlesbrough match which will mean it getting very busy in there before the game. So all sessions will start from the bandstand at ropner park at 6.30pm. No need to bring any money along with you. No one will be at the clubhouse so if you’re coming along to run please remember to go to ropner park. (The sessions will finish in time for you getting home to watch the match as well... don’t worry!) ?

NYSD Track + Field Report

Run reports

* Sorry for the delay! * Tuesday saw round 2 of the track and field series at Middlesbrough. I was joined by Mathew Carling again, and, err, well that's it. Lloyd was meant to come but we're keeping him wrapped in cotton wool - ready to unleash on the opposition at the mile relays. I seem to have scared off the Striders ladies. Come on girls - what could be better than fighting through long tailbacks on the A174, to eventually arrive at a cold and windy arena - face endless delays as the juniors go through their heats - before starting your favourite event. You don't know what your missing. First up was the 100 metres. Suffering from man-flu, I looked in my bag to discover I'd forgotten my…
