RANELAGH WEBSITE
As you may be aware, the Ranelagh website has been unavailable for the last
week and a half. It seems that a serious problem has developed with our
provider. Our webmaster Ken Powley has been informed: "The platform has
failed and there is no way to fix and we are advising customers to cease and
move to a new provider." Ken has arranged for an alternative supplier and is
currently trying to transfer the domain name. We hope normal service will be
resumed shortly, but the domain name transfer can apparently be a lengthy
process.

COAD CUP 5 miles handicap Tuesday 12th July in Richmond Park 7.15pm start
As a break from our normal Tuesday night training sessions we have our
annual five miles summer handicap in the Park. All members are welcome to
take part. Two pleas from our hard-working officials:
1 PLEASE arrive early if you can. This will help avoid long queues to
register and assign handicaps.
2 If you haven't run in a club event before, please e-mail our handicapper
Angus Cater angus.cater@gmail.com to let him know you're thinking
of taking part. He will need some idea of your pace - e.g. a parkrun time or
just a guesstimate. This doesn't commit you to running but will also save
time at registration
NEXT ROAD GRAND PRIX and SURREY ROAD LEAGUE EVENT - ELMORE 7 miles on
Saturday 16th July
The Elmore 7m is on a rolling country lanes course and is held in
conjunction with the Chipstead Village Fair and Flower Show. Start time is
2pm. Details and entries:. Only 16 Ranelagh entries so far!
After the Elmore comes the Elmbridge 10km on Sunday 26th July, with a 9am
start at the Xcel Leisure Centre by the river at Walton-on-Thames. It's a
flat course, part road and part Thames towpath. Entries here:.
25 Ranelagh entries so far.
NEXT JOB FOR THE MOB
It's the Wedding Day race in Bushy Park on Friday 29th July, starting at
7.30pm. It's a flat 7km, partly grass, partly tarmac but all inside the
Park. There's a mob match trophy for the club with the biggest turnout, and
we have begun to view it rather proprietorially. The race isn't until the
end of July but it's popular and often hits its entry maximum. Over 300
entries are already in, including 40 Ranelagh early birds. Don't miss it!
Entry and details:.
RUNNING AWARDS
Rick Jenner writes:
"The Men's And Women's Running Awards 2016 need helpers. (And there might be
some free kit in it for you too!)
They have kindly asked us to help, and need runners of all abilities and
levels, to put a range of running kit, nutrition and gadgets through their
paces. Then to provide honest and frank reviews and ultimately determine
which brands and products walk off with the awards. Testing takes place
during August 2016 and you will need to be able to collect and return any
kit to the clubhouse during that period.
To register your interest and get more information please email Jayne
Bennett at awards@wildbunchmedia.co.uk asap.
(Please note this is for Ranelagh Harriers only, do not share with any other
people, non-club members will not be accepted.)"

WHAT'S HAPPENED
***************
RANELAGH RICHMOND 10k Sunday 19th June
Numbers were down a little on last year, both overall and from Ranelagh, but
we still topped 70 blue vests in the race, out of a total of 558 finishers.
It's a great tribute to the club that we can cope with such a home entry and
still find enough marshals and officials to ensure a successful race. Both
the men's and women's races were solo exhibitions of class. From the start,
Belgrave's Phil Wicks disappeared down Riverside Drive and was never seen
again by his pursuers. He had lead bike Hugh Jones all to himself, and
second lead bike Aiah Songu-Mbriwa was left to make the pace for the rest.
Wicks never let up and was rewarded with a new course record by three
seconds and a massive winning margin of 2m 39s over London Heathside's
Olivier le Polain. Aldershot's Georgie Bruinvels couldn't quite match that
in the women's race but her lead over Hercules Wimbledon's Claire Grima at
the finish was a cool 1m 44s.
Jackson Creegan was inside the leading Ranelagh vest, but was entered under
the name of his first claim club Gateshead Harriers. Phil Killingley writes:
"Jackson Creegan looked good for a medal but faded in the last km to take
fourth. The team results miss him out from Ranelagh, lodging him with first
claim Gateshead. David Benton completed an excellent run to finish first for
Ranelagh in traditional mesh vest( oo-er), superb effort as a M50. He
managed 85.0% age graded. The men's team was completed by a resurgent Jon
Smith (tortoise) who stole past a rapidly fading Nick Impey (hare) not long
before the line. Jon recorded a massive PB with 35:10 and Nick 35:22. The
men were third after Belgrave and Reigate. Reigate move to the top of the
road league table just ahead of us. Unless we are lucky and Jackson counts
for us under league rules, in which case we might be out in front.
First lady was Megan de Silva with a 2s PB over her London 10km time-37:31
and 4th lady overall in a swift field. The ladies team of Megan, Laura
Blazey and Marie Synnott-Wells was second after West 4 and should be at the
top of the road league table. In the Surrey Championship they went one
better and took the gold medals.
At the front, Phil Wicks did pretty well to knock 3s of the course record.
And a slew of PBs were recorded. I suspect Alex Morgan's 36:24 was a PB and
David Ready 38:11 certainly was."
David Benton will take the Flash Gardner Cup as the leading finisher
representing Ranelagh and the Whitlock-Welch Trophy for the best age-graded
performance by a first-claim member was won by Marie Synnott-Wells whose
80.8 rating put her half a point ahead of Steve Whitehead.
Ken Powley adds:
"The race produced a number of changes to our vets all-time rankings:
Men O/50 David Benton moves into 5th Best Time for Ranelagh and Trevor
Maguire moves into 20th Best Time for Ranelagh
Women O/45 Ann Kearey, Sally Dell and Sally Yau move into 13th, 14th
and 15th Best Time respectively for Ranelagh.
Women O/55 Fiona Hopwood moves into 5th Best Time for Ranelagh and Anna
Reichwald moves into 6th Best Time, with Sally Bamford in 11th Best Time for
Ranelagh."
Last word to Race Director Rick Jenner:
"Thank you very much to all the volunteers for your help today. I've had
lots of good feedback about the race and all of you in particular, so thank
you for making it a success. Sorry if I didn't meet and thank you in person.
A particular thank you to Hannah and Vaughan for going above and beyond. If
you have any feedback about the race, or your specific job, please do let me
know. Likewise, if you had any feedback from runners, or any complaints for
that matter, please let me know at ranelagh10k@gmail.com."

MINI-MOB MATCH v THE STRAGGLERS at the Crane Park parkrun Saturday 11th
June
Phil Killingley reports:
"It was a home venue this year for us at Crane parkrun, happily coinciding
with Crane's fifth birthday. A large array of Blue vests and Yellow vests at
the start attested to the popularity of this event (or at least to the
captains' ability to twist arms) - 126 in total with Ranelagh holding the
pre-race advantage of 70 to Stragglers' 56.
Ranelagh's strength at the front looked to have sealed things with
'Integrated Transport' Eirin McDaid taking the win (he had taken at least
six different buses to make the event). He was followed by Jon Smith and
Marc Snaith, both of whom took the scalp of their captain. Marc was elated,
having waited 12 years for this privilege. Indeed we got eight of the first
ten. First junior place was Tom Bradley in 11th, who is showing excellent
promise.
Stragglers managed first lady and M40 while Wiebke Kortum was first lady
home for us and Michael Everard first M40. But the blue wave overpowered the
yellow river and when Ken Powley posted the results later in the day there
was no surprise to see Ranelagh winning healthily by 2638 to 3102."
Perusal of the results suggests that there was less of a blue wave this
time, more a series of blue wavelets. They were enough to see us home, but
Strags gave us a good run for our money, especially considering that this
was our 'home' fixture.

VITALITY LONDON 10k Monday 30th May in Central London
Individual results were in the last e-news, but the UKA national team
championship results have just been published. Our men's first team finished
14th thanks to Ralph Street, Richard Gregory and Eirin McDaid, while Megan
de Silva, Suzy Whatmough and Becky Northwood took our women's first team
into 22nd place. About 200 men's and 200 women's teams are listed, though
the numbers are bolstered by B, C, D etc teams and by the inclusion of such
well-known clubs as "NONE" and "N/A". You wouldn't put money on Aldershot
not winning events like this and sure enough they are at the top in both the
men's and women's competitions. In the women's they were 2nd and 4th too!
Results were based on cumulative times.

TOUR OF EPSOM & EWELL Monday 6th - Friday 10h June
Phil Aiken reports:
"Such was my enthusiasm to once again take part in the five day Tour of
Epsom and Ewell that I was the first person to enter. I was duly rewarded
with bib number 1. For some races numbers are allocated alphabetically, so
it's not the first time I've worn number 1, but I felt somewhat conspicuous
on learning that the numbers for the other entrants would start from 702!
Though my performance during the week didn't merit the honour, wearing
number 1 meant I received plenty of support.
The real number 1, winning each of the five races and the overall title by
almost 6 minutes, was South London's Kevin Quinn. Back in the autumn Kevin
was diagnosed with a hole in the heart and he had surgery to correct the
defect four months ago. Collingwood's Lisa Rooney comfortably retained the
women's title, finishing 16th overall. Garmin distances for each race were
3.18m, 3.68m, 3.63m, 2.80m and 3.74m respectively."

POLESDEN LACEY 10km Sunday 12th June near Dorking
Bill Neely reports:
"Fancy something brutal for the summer? Try the Polesden Lacey 10K. I was
lulled into complacency by reading about this 'undulating' event at a
National Trust property and thought I'd have a pleasant Sunday morning
there. The lashing rain didn't help, or the road shoes I wore for what is a
woodland race. But it's the hills that make this the summer equivalent of
the Tadworth Ten, and then some. One hill lasts more than a mile. Total
elevation gain 750 feet. OK, it's not the Alps and I'm not fast, but doing
one mile in six minutes followed by the next in nine tells its own story. So
beware, the Polesden spin and puff - this is no picnic and no walk in the
park. On the other hand, if you want to be tested, it's the one for you."
