On the Saturday 13th weather conditions could only be described as horrific with very severe rain storms (aka Helsinki), and the triple jump continued performances were down totally, Craig finished 14th in the triple jump and on Sunday finished 12in the Long Jump (Craig's training partner Huntingdon's Andrew Bullymore won, beating the members of the British Team!!).
Also competing was Matt Turnbull , the last event under the Biggleswade name (Matt is now a member of Bedford & Cnty), Matt was 8th in the Shot Putt and 15th in the Discus.
Dorset Doddle 21 August
Three Biggleswade AC runners took part in this year's event, following the coastal path from Weymouth to Swanage, a distance of 31 miles. The total ascent is 8800 feet, and so it is equivalent to going up and down Ben Nevis TWICE, while running 5 miles further than a Marathon!
Our three runners, Chris Clarke, Jan Forrester, andNigel Bush, decided to run together to avoid going off course. Unfortunately the plan didn't work, and they managed to choose the wrong route while crossing the Lulworth Firing Ranges - not to be recommended when there are unexploded shells about! Despite their detour they still managed to finish the event, on a very hot day, in 7hrs 30mins, and Jan was the first LADY to finish.
SEAA Inter Counties Abingdon 28th August.
Jorden Best represented Bedfordshire against the other 18 counties in the South of England; in the U15 Boys 80 m Hurdles, in his heat Jorden finished 2nd in a new club record of 11.92 secs, (wind assisted 2.9 m/s) and in the final was 4th with 12.06 secs. Also competing was Sammy Freeman in the U20 womens javelin (Sammy is an U17 but is the best in the County at U17 and U20 - the weight of the the javelin does not change for this age group), Sammy came 12th with a seasons best throw.
