3.Runner Michael Goodliffe for doing 12 in 12 already and PBing all over – will be missed

John Clucas
4.This month I’d like to nominate Neil Fraser for ROTM. He has smashed some great times this month and PB’d 3 times in a week. On fire. He is also probably one of the nicest Conservatives I know.
MOTM for me goes to Kayley Almond. She helped out loads behind the scenes for my leaving do. She knows how easily stressed I get from working with me at Aircelle, so she pretty much took over and sorted the lot! Top lass!

9.Runner, Mark Vaughton, the guy is going from strength to strength with his running, posting some great times. Plus he’s doing fantastic with his weight loss and is genuinely a top guy who is totally dedicated.
Member, Ashley Weir, for sorting out the Bradford runs and keeping his cool with what could have turned into a very stressful task.
Graham Jordan
10.
ROTM – Jen Allen. Jen joined the BMW relay team for the first time this year. She was swopped from leg 2 to leg 3 and then due to a team-mate’s injury, swopped at last minute onto leg 5 to run with the brilliant and very speedy Jo Sharp. Leg 5 is tough even when you’re an experienced trail runner, it’s one of the longest legs and has a ridiculously difficult uphill start which seems to go on for miles! She did a fantastic job to get round in a very respectable time and hot conditions. She didn’t make any fuss about swopping the leg and although daunted by the prospect of running with someone very fast, just got on with it. Huge respect!MOTM – Shell Sears. We’ve had 2 emails into the club this month from members of the public offering praise for one of our runners – and on both occasions it turned out to be Shell. Shell has a fantastic attitude, and is obviously giving a positive impression of our club ethos to others. Well done Shell!
Thanks,
Kate Rippingale
11.ROM – Linzi Birch-Dearden for her astounding solo accomplishment on her marathon in the heat
MOM – John Hannan for organising all the interesting off-road routes and keeping his “flock” rounded up with all the different ability runners getting involved.
Kudos mentions to Rowena for assisting John on the off-road runs, Ellen Pope and Andy Chatterton for their mobile refreshment stations during the half-marathon training sessions on a Friday and to the people who’ve really given me encouragement and a kick up the backside to get the training done PROPERLY for this next half marathon (they know who they are).
Thanks

David Haworth
13.ROM – Michael Goodliffe – completes the 12/12 before his move to France as well as hitting 1000 miles for the year. Summed it up on the 17th June when he ran with Pappa G in the Crazy Cow 10k then with Phil at the Feckleton half. Commendable
MOM – Joint one Spenny and Nicola – even though both have been injured they continue to organise and turn up for the Monday open runs, always meeting at the half way point with water for all.
