Busy Weekend!

29/06/2015/in Yate Athletic Club News, YDL/by Jeremy Dale

Following last weekends LAG YDL we have just had another busy weekend for our athletes, with Sofie Anderson, Jack Moore & Abi Robson at Yeovil for the Combined Events County Championships, and our UAG members representing Team Avon in the YDL match on Sunday, I noticed a PB by Lexi Bond in the triple jump. Well done to all our Club members.

On another note, after seeing some of our athletes being selected for County & Country, it is great to see our coaches getting in on the act!

Mark Lodge has been selected as part of the GB coaching team for the CPISRA World Games this August, it is great to see his effort and commitment being recognised and this follows his selection as throws coach at the Invictus games & award of ‘Professional coach of the year’  from South Gloucestershire Council last year. Well done Mark, we will expect photos and a report please!

The Chairman’s Message 22.06.2015

22/06/2015/in Chairmans message/by Jeremy Dale

Busy weekend

I think I’ve said before that the South West Schools Championships is the biggest meeting that many of we officials go to. With teams from the seven south west counties the days starts early and ends late and it’s all go in between. To make up for that the Exeter stadium always lays on a pretty spectacular buffet for officials to graze on through the day. I’m particularly fond of the little curried pasties!I was a marksman this year. Until you’ve done it it’s hard to appreciate just how much walking around there is. Chief marksman, Kieron, is an old friend and working with him is a pleasure. But by the time Lesley and I were getting our evening meal from Uncle Wong’s in Yate both of us were about out on our feet.How did Avon athletes do? Well, a kind of pattern emerged. Three of our middle distance runners fell. Aidan Noble started it rolling, tripping in the 1500m, finishing the race but well short of what he could reasonably have hoped to do. Two others fell within feet of winning their races. One girl managing to practically crawl across the line for a silver medal. The boy – possibly the most exciting find of the day – going down within sight of a really fast time.Tyler Moulton won his hammer event for the second year running and the rest of Matt Spicer’s & Paul Thorne’s hammer group also acquitting themselves very well.

Lesley has sweated blood over this meeting, because this year she has found herself doing it all on her own. I wrote last week how our dining table is event HQ for Avon Schools and this year there was a YDL match the following day, which also had its own corner of the table.

It would have been nice to report that Yate won their home match, but that proved too difficult. This time it was boy hurdlers who fell. (What is going on????!!!) Daniel Brooks and Jack Holbrook looked impressive from my vantage point at the top of the timekeepers stand.

My call for volunteers, initially to run the results programme, resulted in eight people coming forward to help. So I must express my gratitude to all of them for playing a key part in making sure that the day ran smoothly. In particular I must than Sophie Reed and Georgia Taylor who operated the computer so that results could be published. In record time, I understand.

All in all, a very pleasant day’s athletics, though very windy. Lesley now as the English Schools team to sort out and administer. But an end is in sight. Sixteen days before we set off for France to watch the daughter compete in Geneva. Have I told you about that? You must be one of the very few!!!

Survivors will have to overcome the ‘Decent of Doom’, ‘Shark Lagoon’, ‘Ditch of Destruction’, ‘Crocs Leap’, ‘Hills of Torment’, ‘Trolls Bridge’ and ‘Scramble of Hope’….. See Survivors ‘Route Map’ inside for location of challenges.

As a fun run, the event will not be timed. The emphasis is on adventure, challenge and fun. Participants are advised that, once they start, the only way out is on their own two feet ! All participants will receive a T shirt printed especially for the event.  Please read the ‘Instructions for Participants’ and ‘Be Water Aware’ health advice card before entering the event.

Run registration / assembly point – Westbury Harriers’ club house (adjacent to the main car park and playground) at Blaise Castle. Warm up starts at 7:15pm. The run starts at 7:30pm. Please arrive in plenty of time to be able to register and warm up.

TrustFord Westbury Wipeout 2015 – Instructions for Participants

Welcome to Blaise Castle for the Westbury Wipeout.

What Happens, When

  • All ages: Please meet at 7:15pm in front of the club house for a general ‘warm-up’.
  • At the end of the warm-up, we will take you straight to the correct start for your age.
  • The run for ages 10 upwards starts first (‘Start A’), at about 7:30.
  • The route takes the runners past the assembled 8 and 9 year-olds (‘Start B’). As soon as the older runners have gone by, the younger ages start.
  • As well as starting at a different place, the younger ages (8 – 9) take a short cut, so they do 2k (instead of 3k which the main run does): at the bottom of the long downhill (‘Descent of Doom’) you come out into a meadow.  At the end of this the younger runners turn left, and take a ‘short cut’ (points 6 to 11 on the map).  The main run goes straight on.
  • Please pin (using four safety pins …. one in each corner) your race number to the FRONT of your tee shirt / vest and ensure it remains in place throughout the entire race. If it falls off keep your race number with you. No number at the end of the race means no race finish position and no medal.

Water Health Advice Notice

For Your Safety

  • Please read the ‘Be Water Aware’ health advice card, as you will be running along a stream for some sections of the course.
  • If you have any cuts, please make sure that they are covered by a waterproof plaster / dressing.
  • Our marshals will be wearing bright yellow jackets. They will show you the way, and help you if you have a problem.  Please don’t talk to anyone not wearing a yellow jacket.
  • If you are hurt or tired out and can’t go any further, go to a marshal in a yellow jacket and wait with them. Please don’t try to find your way back on your own.
  • Some of our runners will be running with you to help as well. They will be wearing running bibs.
  • Please remember that this is a Fun Run, not a race. When you start running, don’t go too fast!  We want everyone to finish.
  • Go slowly on the long downhill (‘Descent of Doom’) – it may be slippery!
  • Watch out for tree roots all the way along the run. There will be some rocks too under the water.  And look out for slippery bits (including dog poo)!
  • There are some steep scrambles on the run. Please take care that you don’t slip and fall down on other runners.  If you think it is too difficult, ask one of our helpers to help.
  • There may be people along the paths who are not involved in the run. Please look out and don’t run into them!
  • If there is a hold-up (e.g. at a bridge), please be patient. Don’t forget, this is a fun run, not a race.

We hope you have a great run.

Open competition tonight at Kip Keino Stadium Filton (Wise Campus)

16/06/2015/in Open Meeting/by Jeremy Dale

Just a reminder the Bristol and West open is on tonight, (enter on the night). This is a great opportunity to register a height , time or distance at your event(s) you would like to compete at. Our Team Mangers use these and other performances to select teams, so if you do not have a registered performance on Power of 10, or feel your current personal best is not representative of your capabilities then now is the time to change it!

Check on Bristol and West website that your event(s) are on tonight and at what time and register in time, this is particularly important for new under 13 and under 15 athletes to show what they can do, so give it a go, this is where a lot of athletes start their competition experience.

Bedford International Games

02/06/2015/in Championships/by Jeremy Dale

Three of our athletes were invited to the BIGs last weekend which is a great achievement in itself!

Adam Wilson put in another great performance in the 1500m coming third with yet another PB of 4:21:22 mins, whilst Beth Tucker was 3rd in her 200m with a PB of 31.64sec and 4th in the 100m with a PB of 14.62sec.

Jacob Spence has been in great form over the last two weekends with new PBs which would have put him well up the field, but we believe he pulled up in the 110mh so are awaiting news, we wish him a speedy return whilst congratulations to Beth and Adam.
