RR&TC Racer: Edition #112

Hi Rutlanders

First off a very warm welcome to Ellie Lovett and Chris Foley who have both recently joined the club.

Last weekend’s Anniversary Games in London provided a great final athletics spectacle before the Rio Olympics. There were some brilliant performances not least from young Laura Muir who broke Kelly Holmes’ 1500m record with a stunning 3:57.49. Mo Farah also looked on top of his game with the fastest 5,000m of 2016 with a time of 12:59.29. Coupled with the other great performances, August is looking great for some inspirational sport … and let’s not forget Chris Froome’s amazing third Tour de France win!!!

The club has had its share of superstars in action last weekend too 🙂

Here is this week’s club news …

RR&TC Racer: The “Eleventy First” Edition #111

Hi Rutlanders

Welcome to the Eleventy First edition of The Racer and so we are now officially the same age as Bilbo Baggins at the start of the Lord of the Rings. Absolutely nothing to do with running or triathlon but sometimes training for a target event is like going on a journey or quest with all the inherent challenges that we have to face along the way … and although there might not be a Master Ring to destroy, you do sometimes come away with a nice “precious” medal 😉

RR&TC Racer: The “Here Comes The Sun” Edition #109

Hi Rutlanders

After a promising start June proved to be a complete wash-out so I’m going to be brave and predict that Summer proper starts here 🙂 Just be careful when you are out racing or training and make sure you stay well hydrated and don’t forget the suntan lotion too … don’t want to see any lobsters at any club sessions 🙂

Last Sunday was certainly a scorcher and there were some scorching performances over the weekend especially at Holkham Hall in Norfolk for the inaugural running of the Half Outlaw and other supporting events …
