Bristol Sri Chinmoy Races Summer Series 2016

Bristol Sri Chinmoy 3 x 1 Mile Relay Race

In total we had 41 teams complete the relay race. We had some impressive 1 mile times considering that the course has a hill on it and it was the hottest day of the year (30C)!

It was nice to see that some of our regular runners brought family and friends to join them. Also nice to see some teams made up of members of different clubs.

It seems that the junior boys were thinking about the Olympics when choosing their team names!

We gave our awards for the series winners and also for the male and female club winner awards. Although not everyone can win a medal, each runner did get an ice cream. Perfect on a hot summer's evening!

Bristol Sri Chinmoy 2 mile and Junior 1 Mile Race

Many thanks for coming on a beautiful evening. We had a good turnout of 74 runners. 

It was great to see so many runners from Emersons Green Running Club! 

See current standings for the individual and club series awards. We will give out the individual series awards at the relay race on 19 July. The Club series is still not finished as points from the relay also count towards the club prizes.

Unfortunately the two adults with numbers V87 and 257 didn't give us their names so they do not appear on the results. Please contact us if you ran with these numbers and we will add your name to the results. Thank you!

See you all next time for the ever-popular 3 x 1 mile relay race. If you cannot form a team but would like to take part then come anyway and we can put you in a team on the night. We will do our best to organise some ice cream after the results too!

Bristol Sri Chinmoy 2 Mile and Junior 1 Mile Race

This season we decided to encourage under 16 athletes by giving them free entry and also their own race. The response was fantastic! Many thanks to Alison Hurford and Paul Owen for bringing their young runners.

We had 28 runners for the Junior 1 mile race. The standard was high with Ben Rawlings (first boy) finishing in 5:16 and Nancy Dineen finishing in 5:53. Not bad with our famous hill! I think a few of the adult runners were happy that the juniors had a separate race! 

The junior race was dominated by runners from Bristol & West Running Club. I was particularly impressed by their group warm-up!

The senior race had a bigger variety of running clubs taking part. 1st place man was Robert Stewart from Bristol & West AC with a time of 10:22 and first place woman was Lucy Ellis, with 12:26, also from Bristol & West. A long-time friend of our races, Gary Hughes from Team Bath was first Vet50 in a time of 12:05.

See you all for the 5K in June!
