Juniors News

January 2025

31/1/2025

 
January can be a tough month for maintaining motivation but our junior runners have braved cold dark nights on Thursdays and ice and wind on Saturday mornings, enjoying a brilliant first month of the year. We have had an excellent turn out for every session, demonstrating great commitment from the kids. Well done everyone.
We welcomed new runner Ethan this month.
 
Throughout January we have had lots of fun along the prom doing interval work and relays. We admired the stars in our evening sessions and headed down onto the beach to play Bulldog on the steep sloping pebbles during our Saturday mornings.

We have done our warm up on the sand at low tide and pushed hard with hill repeats up Galley Hill. 
 
The group has been particularly focusing their learning on pacing this month. We have practiced the various technique changes we make when we switch from jogging to sprinting.
 
The January cross country race was held at Black Cap near Lewes in lovely snowy conditions. It was a beautiful morning with a cloud inversion and four of our juniors took part. Well done to Eva, Freya, Ellie and Alex. Eva was the fastest girl in the race. There are two months of the cross season left if anyone else wants to have a go.

Herstmonceux Relays 2018

1/8/2018

 
Picture
Wednesday 1st August saw seven BRT Juniors turn out for this year's Herstmonceux Relays on a beautiful, warm evening. This very popular and friendly event, organised annually by Hailsham Harriers, saw runners in teams of four each cover a distance of 1.5 miles over a multi-terrain course against the stunning back drop of the Castle and moat. 

The Juniors competed as equals not only against the four BRT Adult teams but other East Sussex clubs too. The Junior teams were made up of Boys: Ferdi Ibrahim, Hector Evett, Luca Hunter and Max Phipps; and Girls: Hope Sankey, Lucy Boreham and Ruby Phipps. Special mention must be made of Hope Sankey who ran both the first and the fourth leg of the relay after a last minute hitch meant the fourth girl was unable to attend.

Individual times were: Boys Ferdi 10.19; Hector 10.39; Luca 11.34; Max 10,39 with an overall time of 43.11.   Girls Hope 10.39; Lucy 10.56; Ruby 11.11; Hope 10.27 with an overall time of 43.13.​

New Coaching Assistant

30/6/2018

 
In June I attended the Julie Rose Athletics Stadium to take my athletics coaching assistant qualification which i am pleased to say I passed. Over the weekend I had a great time and learnt many new things - such as warm ups/ cool downs and games for the younger children to integrate into the main session as well as different ways to make the drills they do fun, interesting, and varied.

Thank you very much to BRT for the support and oppourtunity.

Nine members of BRT’s Junior section competed in the 1 mile race on Wednesday 30th May on what proved to be near-ideal running conditions and provided some outstanding results. The Junior girls produced some fine running, seeing Hope Sankey, not only finishing 1st girl but taking the overall 1st place, with a time of 5:56. This was followed by Ruby Phipps and Martha Wilson coming in 2nd and 3rd girls respectively. Ruby’s brother, Max Phipps finished in fourth place and 3rd boy overall. Other Juniors running were: Harrison Silver, Charlie Bulteel, Nathan Frais, Oliver Good, William Good.

Following on from the 1 mile three of our Juniors competed in the full 5k distance. Hannah Frais came in at a very impressive 21:56, followed by Izzy Mitchell at 23:44 and then Ferdi Ibrahim with a time of 24:39.
