Last weekends Hastings Parkrun was a family celebration for Cathy Bate. Not only was Cathy celebrating a significant birthday (sure she won't mind me mentioning 60 years young!) but three of her brothers ran too! Cathy ran yet another pb (The icing on the cake you could say!) Cathy's time of 25:58 puts her 2nd in her age group (only 3 secs from top-no pressure Cathy!) on the Hastings Parkrun leaderboard over the 40 weeks it has been in existence. There to run and cheer on Cathy were Ewan Carradine who ran an impressive 21:09 and Lorna Cotter who recorded 30:26.

A great time was had by all at last Saturday's Lion's Santa Dash along Bexhill seafront. With a choice of 2km or 5km there was something for everyone. Runners with children in pushchairs, runners with dogs, children on scooters and even a bare footed Santa! (aka James Graham!)
Now is the time to plan your races for next year. If you're planning a marathon don't forget our very own Starfish Marathon entry is now live.
Set an achievable goal, one to push yourself and an event to aim for, perhaps at the end of next year or even 2017.

Many congratulations to Simon Irwin who became an Ironman at the weekend! Simon raced Ironman Mallorca and finished in a time of 14:01:53. His split times were:
Swim 1:08:54 Bike 7:03:51 Run 5:28:06.
Dan Marshman competed in The Gauntlet at Hever Castle yesterday. The half Ironman distance commenced with an open-water swim in the spectacular 38 acre Hever Castle Lake and River Eden, transitioning into the undulating cycle that took athletes around a circuit through the High Weald of Kent, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and up to the stunning Ashdown forest. The largely off-road run circumnavigated the estate and award-winning castle grounds before athletes made the dash to the tree-lined finishing chute beside the lake. Dan finished in an excellent time of 5:57:40. His splits were:
Swim 31:47 Bike 3:12;02 Run 2:07:11.

And finally....... this from James Graham:
"Thank goodness for a clean set of underpants, men may understand 'do i put clean set in or reuse old, mmmm' well I put a new set in my scuba bag . I was supposed to be diving on the balfour today, got up for a 8.30 cast off in Eastbourne, made the 9.00 lock and out to sea, quite choppy..........ok no dive, tooo choppy.

Unfortunately rain stopped play at today's Rother 'BeActive' event. Over 30 local sports clubs and businesses came together on the De La Warr lawns to promote leading a healthy, active lifestyle. Brt set up a gazebo and stall which ultimately became a rain shelter! Just as the rain came down Andy Croft led the juniors,including four potential new members, in a coached running skills session. (Pictures here) The event was then cut short due to the weather. Thank you to David Palmer for providing the gazebo and display boards, Dave Oxbow for the table, Andy Croft for the junior session and the other members who came to give out promotional cards and chat to the public about our great club. Even Janet's dog Dexter lent a helping paw!

Grafman Half Ironman
Hats off to new member Marcos Miranda for tackling this event as his 1st ever Tri! If anyone needs inspiration or motivation then talk to Marcos! He had this to say:
"1.9 km swim in 42 min. Horrible swim, I almost quit before the first 500m. The weatsuit tried to kill me by taking my breathing, it was just too tigth and I was really struggling in the middle of the wave, so I had to stop, undo a bit the zip and allow all the bunch to pass me. I was last in the first buoy. Later I found my pace an I could retake some positions.
90 km ride in 2:47. Pouring with rain and cold, still a good 32 km/h average speed. I could retake more positions lost in the swim, I was caching people all the time.
21 km run in 1:36 h, including a "T3" in the loo. (probably 2 min). Good run despite a strong back pain from the ride during the first 1/4 of the run.
Result; Great satisfaction for having completed this challenge. I was 148th out of 600 participants and 29th in my age group ; ) 5:10 h in total"

Many of you know Keith Stokes (designer of the club's logo, kit, flags etc). Delighted to announce Keith was married on 6th June to the lovely Michelle. In attendance were their 2 beautiful daughters Ruby & Molly. We wish them every happiness in their life together and thank Keith for his continuing support of the club.
Glad to see members have been very active in the last month with, as always, some outstanding achievements.
Firstly, congratulations to Ali Marshman for completing the Coach in Running & Fitness Course and to Andy Croft who is now a UK Athletics assistant coach. Thank you guys for giving up your time to do this. Their achievements mean you the members are safe in the knowledge that you are being led by qualified coaches.
The club have expanded the run opportunities to include a Monday social run. All abilities welcome, meet at 7pm on the prom near Bexhill Sailing Club.
Also, members arrange ad hoc swims, bike rides etc. via the clubs group Facebook page. BRT - Bexhill Runners & Triathletes
Another new feature is a club page on 'Strada', an application designed to log your weekly mileage and a fun way to see the champion of the week!

NDW50
Tim Cox was in action on 17th May in the NDW50. On the hottest day of the year so far Tim finished in a time of 9:54:50. Tim thoroughly enjoyed the course.
Run Across Scotland -
Congratulations to Sherrill Barrett who completed this 85 mile 5 day challenge in the week commencing 17th May. Sherrill was part of last years 'Adventure before Dementia' brt group (celebrating Janet's big birthday!) but unfortunately developed an injury half way through and was unable to finish. In true Sherrill style she was determined to have another go and was delighted to be successful this time.
Ironman Lanzarote-
On 23rd May Simon Casebourne and Paul Holdaway challenged themselves over the Ironman course in Lanzarote. After months of training there were mixed emotions on the day. Simon achieved a consistently strong 3 elements with a 1:12:40 swim 6:28:13 bike and 3:58:36 run with an excellent overall time of 11:50:06.
Paul started strongly with a 1:00:08 swim 6:15:03 bike but then the legs just weren't there on the day and he ended up with a long walk to the finish line. As everyone who competes will know sometimes its just not meant to be and Paul is to be applauded for finishing in the knowledge that to complete an Ironman no matter how long it takes is an enormous achievement. We wish him better luck next time.

Yesterday witnessed the Inaugural Bexhill Starfish Marathon & Races on Bexhill Promenade. The day started overcast and typically windy, however, by lunchtime the clouds had lifted and the sun made the going a little warm for the runners! The course for the marathon consisted of 4 laps along our glorious seafront taking in a couple of sneaky hills at the East end! Brt had 2 members running in the full marathon, Tim Cox 3:37;03 and David Palmer 4:10:26. (Well 3 if you include 'Patrick' the Starfish who was carried round on Tim's back with a very surprised expression on his face!) Ali Marshman's brother Dan (Clapham Chasers) chose our marathon as his 1st ever! Well done Dan.
Brt made up 2 teams in the Relay Marathon event. First home in 2nd place were Team 'Swift' (Ali Marshman, Ben Evett, Martin Reynolds & Alex Mandryko) in a time of 3:04:03
Next up in 4th place were Team 'Running in 4hrs' ( James Graham, Cathy Bate, Lorna Cotter & Pam Matthews) in a time of 4:08:40.
Bexhill Runners & Triathletes were proud to host the first Marathon in Bexhill on behalf of St. Mary's School. It is hoped it will become an annual event the club can be proud of. A huge thank you to the organisers, marshals, Faye McClelland for presenting the prizes, Simon Casebourne (lead bike), Pip Parry (photos) the runners and supporters for all of your efforts. More pictures in the Gallery.

This from Dave Oxbrow:
"I want to say a BIG thanks to everyone who came long to the "Alex" run on Wednesday 25th.
A calm, mild evening provided good conditions to run for everyone.
As I said it wasn't a race, no prizes or medals just a social run & to remember Alex.
Thanks also to Lorraine, Denise, Teresa, and Greg, for coming out to support the evening. Also Julie and Emma and the youngsters who kept us entertained.
Seeing so many come along meant a great deal to me personally, most of you knew Alex and what he means to our club, but also good to see some
newer members/faces as well.
Hope everyone was pleased with their effort on the evening you all should be pleased and proud, as I was.
Distance was 5Km, times below (in case you are interested!)

The sun shone for the 3 members who ran the Tenterden 5 mile race last Sunday 15th February. Times were:
Paul Holdaway 28:53 Jacqui Vaughan 47:07 Lorna Cotter 48:48
Please note Wednesday 25th February's session will consist of a 5km seafront run, where Dave Oxbow hopes to time everyone. No medals just a 5km on Alex's seafront.
He realises as time passes newer members/runners will not know about Alex Hall and why he was/is so special to the club.
Everyone is welcome to join in, members or not, usual time 7pm by the shelter near the sailing club. Dave looks forward to seeing as many people as possible on the evening, plus join him in 'Kerry's' for a hot cuppa afterwards if you would like.

Last Friday 6th Feb at 6pm Tim Cox embarked on probably his toughest challenge to date. The Arc of Attrition
the South Wests toughest non stop footrace. 100miles with a 38 hour cut-off.
The Route is a complete “Arc” around the far SW of Cornwall taking in 100miles of dramatic coastal path.
Tim entered the race before he found out that his shoulder surgery date was to be the middle of January. He decided that all being well after the op he would get on the start line and see what happened! Tim was delighted to find out at the end of a long 30 hours 35 minutes of racing that he had finished in 14th place! This is an outstanding achievement and the club salutes you Tim! Very well done.
One other result from last weekend was from our lovely Sherrill Barrett who ran the Brighton- Falmer 10 mile race. This challenging trail run starts on the outskirts Brighton on Falmer Village adjacent to the Village Green on the outskirts of Falmer. Sherrill recorded a splendid time of 1:40:37.
