TAC Summer parkrun Grand Prix - completed
The final event of the Summer Grand Prix took place at Tonbridge on 17th September. Here is Mark Pitcairn-Knowles summary. The full results are on the parkrun page.
Sophie Slack had a 16 point advantage over Andrew Mercer (lowest score 14 to discard) and as it turned out the winning score, with a PB, was 31 points, this would have given Andrew victory by 1 point, if neither Sophie or Lily had run! Unfortunately for Andrew (3rd overall) he is injured and it was Sophie who scored the 31 points to extend her score to 107, with her 4th scoring PB run and take the Park Run GP title following on from her winter success. Lily Slack has been close behind her sister throughout and in fact it was only her relatively less good first race when she did not run a PB that resulted in her being 8 points adrift, such was the standard set by Sophie.
There were a number of PB’s, but I think Anne Brenchley’s (W70) has to be mentioned as we all know it is harder to run a PB as you get older.
The summer GP series saw 77 TAC runners register a score. Any ideas on changes to the scoring system for the Winter Series etc please contact Mark Pitcairn-Knowles.

Blackheath and Bromley Harriers, Will Bolton Memorial Relays, at West Wickham, Saturday 10th September
Videos loaded !
In total we had about 80 runners taking part across the races and despite the wet weather at times, the team spirit and all round effort was superb. Those making their TAC debuts were particularly good, as it can be a daunting time for juniors in that situation. I hope that you all enjoyed being part of the TAC squad and thanks for giving it a go.
The senior relay provided both a good battle in the men's and women's categories. The Tonbridge senior mens A team were matched up against their under 20 counterparts and a race long tussle ensued. James Puxty, as an under 17, was brought into the senior team on leg 1 and came hope in 2nd after Blackheath. Jamie Goodge was not far down for the TAC under 20s. Meanwhile Nicole Taylor stormed around the first leg and no doubt ran the fastest ladies lap.
On leg 2 Corey De'Ath hit the front for the seniors and George Duggan moved the u20s into second, before Kieran Reilly and Ally Kinloch (u20) went on leg 3. Ally closed Kieran down, but it was good to see the latter back racing, after a very difficult year. It was nip and tuck at the last changeover, as Julian Rendall and Stuart Brown set off. Stuart had one of his good days and finished strongly to give the u20s a win by only around ten seconds. The win meant that TAC retain the trophy won the last seven years now.
Meanwhile Lucy Thompson, Kiri Marsh and Maria Heslop helped TAC to second behind Blackheath in the women's contest.
Corey De'Ath ran the fastest lap of the race in 12.39 with George Duggan at 12.40. Nicole Taylor ran the fastest ladies lap with 14.37.
The earlier Junior race for u13s and u15s also provided good competition and the TAC u15 boys and girls both won, with I believe the u13 boys also being first.

There was some good entertainment, some excellent performances and plenty of helpers at the open meeting, which went off well in glorious conditions.
The standout distance running performance for me came over 800 metres, where Ben Murphy was paced to an excellent personal best of 1.53.68, by Sean Molloy (1.53.40). Jack Keywood missed running under 2 minutes for the first time by just a fraction of a second with 2.00.24.
The day ended with what for many was the highlight, as 10 teams of two generation, family teams, contested the 2 x 400m relay. Emma and Ewan Wood emerged victorious in 2.01.15, closely followed by Ben Wrighton/Sean Molloy in 2.02.99 and Ben Brooks/Steve Brooks in 2.03.09.

Tonbridge AC Summer parkrun Grand Prix - Latest News with one event remaining, after 27th August
Update from Mark Pitcairn-Knowles
The penultimate qualifying Park run GP run coincided with the TAC takeover. Although none of the top 3 took part, it is quite tight with only 4 points covering 7th to 14th places. James Puxty won the race and scored the highest AG percentage 82.83% (plus a 5 point bonus for PB) Julian Rendall was close behind on both counts.
I believe there were a number of other TAC runners who either did not have their Bar code or have registered that they are members of TAC. The AG Grand Prix rule is that you have to be registered as a member of TAC (this makes results very easy to scan through) Follow the instructions on your weekly email from Parkrun to add your TAC membership.
PLEASE NOTE THE FINAL QUALIFYING RACE WILL NOW BE ON THE 17th SEPTEMBER to avoid clash with B&B relays.

Watford Open Meeting, Wednesday 10th August
Videos loaded !
The Watford Wednesday Open Meeting once again attracted an excellent level of entries and included 24 races over 800 metres. The races start with the 'slowest', using athletes target times and finish with the 'fastest' and on this occasion TAC had six runners in action, including a second claim member, Finn Harvey.
First to go for TAC was Olukorede Fasina (u13), who had won over 800m on Sunday at the Kent League with a 2.21.5 pb. Here he sliced another chunk from his best, running strongly to record 2.19.01, which ranks him second this year on the TAC under 13 rankings.
Jamie Brown (u20) is another athlete who has been on a mission of improving his pbs and reduced it again to 2.01.18, having run 2.02.92 at last week's Tonbridge meeting. Jamie was in race 18 and next up was Simon Coppard (u17) in race 22. Its fair to say that Simon likes the Watford track as he produced his fourth win in four 800m races at the open meetings this Summer. This time he ran a superb 1.55.47, taking more than three seconds from his best and moving up two places to top the TAC under 17 rankings and go into the club's top ten overall for the year.
In the last race of the night the club had two representatives in George Duggan and Dom Brown and both had good races as they placed second and third, respectively, recording pbs of 1.51.58 and 1.51.75.

Nick Barrable - Orienteering Update, Wednesday 9th August
I received this from long time TAC member Nick Barrable, who still occasionally turns out for the club. His main focus these days is orienteering -
In Tallinn, Estonia, at the moment for World Masters. Got a Bronze in the Sprint yesterday - M40. My preferred vest is always TAC - best racing top. I didn't retain my Gold from last year but was closer to Gold than I was expecting and 2 seconds off Silver. I was pleased with a medal, as I hit my knee in Wales a week and a half before and it isn't fully recovered so I am still not up to firing on all cylinders.
Shot of me with the other 5 GBR medal winners and me being interviewed by Estonian TV in the finish. (see below)
Now we have two Long Qualifiers, then a rest day, then the Long (Forest) distance.
Also - it was good to see Max Nicholls in the Mountain Trophy Team for GB - alongside one of our current best Orienteers Graham Gristwood, who is 32.
Keep up the great work,
Best wishes,
Nick Barrable

Watford Open Meeting, Wednesday 27th July
Videos loaded !
Its fair to say that James West is enjoying a purple patch of performances, as following his sub four minute mile last Friday he followed up with a sub 8 minutes clocking over 3000 metres, at Watford.
The race had been set up to attract a good number of athletes capable of running below 8.30 and included the likes of Charlie Hulson (National Cross Country Champion 2015), Andy Baddeley (9th Olympic Games 1500m in 2008 and 3.49 miler). TAC provided the pacemakers in Sean Molloy and Robbie Farnham-Rose, aiming to try and get somebody under the 8 minute mark.
Our pacers did a good job getting to the 2k marker and it then came down to Andy Baddeley and James West at the head of the 22-strong field. Baddeley did a superb job to keep the pace going and held James off all the way to the line, as they clocked 7.58.00 and 7.58.47. This was a sixteen second pb for James. Behind them there were a dozen or so personal bests, including Chris Olley in 4th with 8.06.15.
James goes second on the TAC all time list, behind Mark Scrutton's 7.50.38, set in 1983 and puts him 10th in the UK for 2016.
Later in the evening Nicole Taylor also ran a terrific 3000 metres, taking almost ten seconds from her pb with 9.36.56. This was just three seconds away from Grace Nicholls' club record, but is the fastest time by a TAC female this year.
Ben Murphy (u20) was another to make a big breakthrough, with his performance in race 18 of the 1500s. He placed 2nd in 3.58.23, improving his pb from 4.13.69. Ben is a good example to many since all he has really done in the last year is get stronger, by being far more consistent with his steady running than ever before.
There were also 1500m pbs for Michael Ellis (4.10.41) and Fin Croll (u13, 4.41.55). Second claim member, Finn Harvey (u15) shaved his pb to 4.21.01, whilst Katie Goodge (u15) ran 4.53.12 and Stuart Brown (u20) 4.18.54.

Watford Open Meeting and BMC Gold Standard races, Wednesday 13th July
Videos loaded !
It was another excellent 'Watford Wednesday' with the officials doing a great job to get through 33 middle distance races in less than two and a half hours. The meeting also included some 400s early on and Sean Molloy made a late decision to race, having gone to support. He ran 49.61, before taking up pacemaking duties for the British Milers Club (BMC).
James West produced an excellent win over 800 metres in the BMC mens A race, running 1.50.96, just outside his pb. Then in the BMC mens 1500m A race Chris Olley continued to get quicker, finishing 2nd in 3.44.22, whilst Tom Holden (u20) went sub 3.50 for the first time with a superb 3.46.30 pb in 5th place. The times moved Chris to second and Tom to fourth on the TAC rankings at 1500m this season.
Isaac Harding (u17) started off the TAC proceedings in the open 800m races, going in race 16 of 26. Isaac was just outside his pb with 2.09.93. It was then great to see Charlie Crick (u17) back in action at Watford, after a couple of years of growth related injuries. Charlie ran a personal best of 2.05.14 to win his race. Sam Avis (u20) ran 2.06.34 in race 20, another just a fraction away from a pb.
In open race 23, TAC had Simon Coppard (u17) and Christian Lee (u17). Both ran well as Simon produced his third win in three Watford appearances this year, to lower his pb to 1.58.82, whilst Christian ran a season's best of 2.00.67, less than a second from his pb.
Ben Murphy was the in the final race of the evening and ran 1.55.47 to lower his personal best.

Gary Goodge captured videos of all the 1 mile, 400m and 3000m races.
To me the night was notable for seeing some of the clubs young runners make a bit of a breakthrough across a number of events. Ben Brooks was very pleased with his 200m/400m double pbs, Toby Emm has come back well after being out for a few weeks with injury and Fraser Gordon improved his mile pb by almost a minute.
Katie Burgess lowered her 400m pb again, Christian Lee took more than 9 seconds from an old 400m pb, whilst Ollie Dunn seems to be one of the most improved runners this year, here taking 27 seconds from his mile best.
Harry Brown's confidence seems to be growing and he posted a very respectable 3000m time, whilst behind him both James Kingston and Dan Schofield removed more than half a minute from their bests.
