VIRGIN MONEY LONDON MARATHON, SUNDAY 23 APRIL 2017 – It’s that time of year again with the London Marathon just 6 months away. The club has been allocated 2 places.  These places are for active club members that were unsuccessful in the ballot.  Places will be allocated based on issues such as length of membership, participation for the club in recent years etc.  To apply for one of these Club places you will need to send proof of application/rejection to our Club Secretary, Phil Cunningham by email to billylow@ntlworld.com by Monday 7 November at which time a decision will be made by the Club Officers.

HALL OF FAME CLASS OF 2016 – Some of the Greats of Athletics through the years joined coaches, officials and other volunteers from clubs across England at the 9th annual England Athletics Hall of Fame and National Volunteer Awards night sponsored by Track & Field Tours, Sweatshop and in partnership with the AAA.

As well as the new inductees to the England Athletics Hall of Fame, the night also saw volunteers from across the country honoured in the National Volunteer Awards to celebrate their dedication and service to the sport

The following athletes and people who have made an outstanding contribution to the sport were inducted into this year’s Hall of Fame: Judy Oakes, Peter Radford, Joyce Smith, Bud Baldaro, Kriss Akabusi, Ron Roddan and Tokyo Men’s 4x400m Relay Team (Roger Black, Derek Redmond, John Regis, Kriss Akabusi, Ade Mafe, Mark Richardson)

Other athletes may have clocked faster times and claimed more titles, but nothing compares with Joyce Smith’s record of sustained top-class achievement in a career of such prodigious length. As a teenager in 1956 she gained her first international badge, as reserve for the England cross country team. In 1980, aged 43, she became the world’s third fastest ever marathon runner! Joyce represented Britain at 800m, set UK records at 1500m, broken a world record and won a European bronze medal in the 3000m, and scored great international victories at cross country and marathon running.

For several years she was content to be a club runner, and with the birth of Lisa in 1968 she could have decided that, at 30, her racing career was over. On the contrary, she excelled by placing third in the 1971 International Cross Country Championship.  She became the first British winner of the women’s International cross country title and made the Munich Olympic team at 1500m, setting a UK record of 4:09. In 1974 she improved her UK 3000m record to 8:55.53, took the bronze medal at the European Championships and was voted UK woman athlete of the year by the British Athletics Writers’ Association.

In 1978 she was no longer enjoying track racing. Her real career, on the road, was just about to start at the age of 41. She ran 2:41:37 in her debut in June 1979 and three months later improved to 2:36:27, a Commonwealth record and world veterans best. In November 1980 she won her second Tokyo marathon in 2:30:27, quickest ever in a women-only race. An even greater race came next: the inaugural London Marathon in March 1981 with 2:29:57. In London the following year she ran faster still, at 44 becoming the oldest athlete ever to set a British record. She continued to compete with distinction, including 11th place in the inaugural Olympic race in Los Angeles in 1984, the year she was awarded the MBE.
