It was a busy weekend of racing away from the track with fast times in Swansea Bay whereas City of Norwich won the Round Norfolk Relay

ROUND NORFOLK MT RELAY, Kings Lynn, September 16/17

The 35th edition of the circuit of the Norfolk boundary race attracted a maximum entry of 59 teams of 17 for the day and night long race of 17 individual stage races, Martin Duff reports.

Unfortunately, there was a major problem during the early hours of Sunday morning when a suspected ram-raider caused havoc in Feltwell. A spokesman for the race said: Stage 14 had to be cancelled at a moments notice in the middle of the night due to a last-minute road closure, which has caused a few headaches.

For the race, teams were asked to predict their total times and the slowest then started first and 43-year-old Michael Eccles was then the fastest, of the 56 starting teams. This was on the 16.32 miles out to Hunstanton with a 97:28 clocking in bright late morning sunshine. His family also took the age-graded award awarded for a squad of three relations.

Last year the race turned into a battle between the two Norwich clubs and here, City of Norwich sought to overturn their loss to the Road Runners back then.

By the end of the third stage, it was City who had the advantage thanks to Ellie Grubbs 38:12, which was not only the stage fastest overall, but also beat her own 2018 womens stage record by 22 seconds.

After six stages, City of Norwich, who had John Senior fastest on the run on to Mundesley, led by eight minutes from Bure Valley, whose Joanne Watkins was quickest amongst the women.

The next stage to Lessingham had St Edmund Pacers W65 Jenny Morgan clock 71:22 to register a top class 91.9 per cent on the graded tables to be comfortably the best overall on an age basis.

Norwich then kept up the pressure on stage 8 on to Horsey as 45-year-old Cat Cummings ran 46:33 for third fastest overall on the 7.52-mile stint and 85.2 percent on the age tables. This was a stage masters womens record and just a little adrift of 58-year-old Malcolm Tuffs 86.1 per cent for Ryston.

However, it was 63-year-old Pat Ronksley whose 56:26 for the Stragglers earned 88.4 per cent on the age graded tables, the second best of the race.

Andrew Jakeman then improved the stage nine record for the 16.6-miles forward to Belton with 89:59 and triathlete Joanna Oregan hacked more than eight minutes from the womens best with 1:43.02.

The weather stayed mild overnight and, after ten stages, the holders had slipped back as Paddock Wood now led Kevin Hollands Wymondham by just over two minutes.

One of the biggest improvements to a stage record came on the eleventh as Elys Chris Smith ran 65:25 to lower the best by four minutes over the 12.45-miles.

After a series of better performances and with just four stages left to run, but it was just three after the stage 14 cancellation. City of Norwich had surged back into the lead and were 40 minutes clear of Ely. However, it was Ryston who staged a late rally to try and catch the 2021 winners but they fell half-an-hour short, leaving Norwich Overall and Club Class champions.

BLACKHEATH & BH WILL BOLTON XC RELAYS, Sparrows Den, Kent, September 16

With the championship relays coming up, Tonbridge took advantage of a local outing and, once again, dominated and had the top four teams in the mens race, Martin Duff reports.

This was over a modified lap and it was the holders declared second team who came out on top despite James Kingstons fastest overall lap on stage two for the second-placed finishers.

The South of England and then English National cross-country champion later turned out again over the final stage when his 13:11 was the fourth best time.

Blackheath & Bromley led throughout the womens race and then closed in with Jess Keenes third quickest 15:52 giving a winning margin of more than three minutes over Tonbridge.

The hosts also had the quickest womens lap, which was set by under-20 Carys Firth on the opening 2.5-mile leg for their junior team, as Elaine Rayner was next best in their mixed quartet.

Tonbridge did not have things all their own way in the younger age groups. However, the three leading teams to finish in the under-15 boys category all had their second leg runners take a shorter course. Had they not done so, Tonbridge may have won.
