After some pretty spectacular downpours during the week, Sunday’s weather was pretty kind to our runners and spectators at the annual street party that is the Ealing Half Marathon. A little rain at the start, a slight breeze, but it could have been s-o-o-o much worse! There was the usual arrangement to meet in Lammas […]
Bridie Lebdiri reflects on the opening match of the season: During the past few weeks, we have had quite a few team talks at the clubhouse, with the aim of getting our young athletes and their parents/carers to understand the importance of turning out to represent the club.

Our combined team with Thames Valley Harriers – Team West London – came second in the match, behind the hosts Croydon. We were second in our last […]
We had a fairly good turnout of athletes for the final Middlesex Young Athletes League, reports Bridie Lebdiri.
