The Sutton Community Games is taking place at Wyndley this weekend. All the sport clubs of Sutton will be there offering a chance for you to try their sport. You can come and try the long jump from 2 – 3pm on Saturday and Sunday. Everyone is welcome so bring your friends and family.
A super performance (as seen on TV) by Katie Ingle gave her the bronze medal in the 3000 metres Steeplechase at the British Champs in a time of 10.02.34. Thoroughly deserved and a great reward for all the hard work she has put in. This was more than a ten second improvement over her previous lifetime best of 10.13.99 and is a new Club record.
It was a cold and wet evening and sprint times were a little slow but our rather small team put in some excellent performances.Here are a few I have picked out.
A special thanks to Ruth D, Ian S and Phil P. Burton AC have acknowledged the help they received from all officials which helped the meeting to run smoothly.
Well done everyone. The next meeting is at Sutton on the 19th July so no excuses not to be there (John T).
On a very hot Saturday at Doncaster Muninder Singh Hayer had the perfect last competition prior to competing in The World Racerunning Championships in Denmark from the 9th to the 15th July. in blazing sunshine and with temperatures well over 30 degrees, he competed over 200, 400 and 800 metres over the space of 5 hours. He set New World Records over 200 and 800 metres knocking 1.5 seconds off the 200 record and 5 seconds off the 800 record. In addition he set a new PB over 400 metres. This was just about the perfect preparation for Denmark and he is travelling with high expectations of winning Gold Medals and further improving theses records. Muninder’s Coach Graham Felton is now working with Muninder on final preparations and a few last minute tweaks and is confident that he will have a very successful championships.
