YDL (Lower) – Perival...

Our Under 13/Under 15 squad finished bottom of the table in their first Youth Development League match of the season last Saturday at Perivale. This in no way reflects the enthusiasm and team spirit of those who took part. The squad of 24 was simply too small to fill all 112 places on the programme, […]

Sunday saw the second race in ESM’s 2016 road running championship series, and twelve athletes turned out.

Southern Athletics League – Winchester – Sat 16 April 2016

The first Southern Athletics League meeting of 2016 on Saturday provided us with relatively few highlights. It was a chilly and damp afternoon, yielding only nine personal best performances, and the club won just 11 events. Although a good-sized squad of 28 athletes made the journey to Winchester, there were too few specialist field eventers […]

News round-up on road &...

Despite the inauspicious weather conditions created by Storm Katie, at least twenty-two ESM road runners turned out to race over the Easter weekend, and were rewarded with three trophies and a clutch of personal best times. Five of the veteran men decided to join Mo Farah at the Cardiff Half Marathon on Saturday, also the […]

Hampton Court Palace 1/2M &...

Twenty-five ESM road runners took part in the Hampton Court Palace Half Marathon on Sunday. It’s a flat course although the stretch along the river is on gravel with the usual potholes. It wasn’t a closed circuit either but the marshals did their best to hold back the cars at crossing points. In spite of […]
