Thank you to each of you for taking part. Only Dorking and Mole Valley are ahead of us. Not surprisingly, with such a strong showing RPAC was the highest scoring team and leapt from fifth place to second in the league, overtaking Runnymede Runners, Wimbledon Windmilers and Blackwater Valley Runners. She was followed by Ruth Willis and Beth Higgins who were fourth and fifth lady finishers respectively. Jo Davey was our first lady home, finishing as third lady and in 23rd position overall. Ben Stanton finished in sixth place and Frank O'Regan in 7th. ![]() First home was Ryan Harris in first place, closely followed by Steve Bass in second and Andrew Reeves in third. RPAC runners turned out in force for this home fixture with no less than 29 finishers across the one and two lap races. Fortunately conditions were a little better than in 2020 but there were still areas of deep mud and standing water. It's fair to say that the course was challenging with its combination of hills and deep mud. At the bottom of the gulley the route turns left onto "The Woodland Trail" beloved by Parkrunners before crossing the park close to the copse close to Park Lane. This is followed by a steep ascent up onto the ridge, a couple of hundred metres along the Greensand Way, followed by a descent of "The Gulley". The route crosses the park to a point close to the beacon before turning left to the "top corner" whence runners climb up to the path that runs along the back of the ridge (close to Park Lane East and then Park Lane). The course is approximately 5 miles long and follows 2 laps of what some people know as the "cross country course" (approximately). She commented that she had only just cleared her driving licence of penalty points so we have to hope that there were no speed cameras operating between Farnham and Reigate. Anyway she must have put her foot down as she arrived just after 10:00 and the race was able to start at 10:15 with most people wearing the numbers that they should have. Given current petrol prices this was a costly mistake as Jenny lives in Tolworth. Jenny's presence was quite important as not only does she keep time, but she also keeps the race numbers between races. The next setback was when we discovered that the MABAC League timekeeper Jenny had arrived in Farnham Park, only to discover that the event was taking place in our beloved Priory Park. Thankfully Andrew Pringle managed to set them back upright and apart from a bit of damp toilet paper, no real harm was done. The day got off to an inauspicious start when we discovered that the port-a-loos that we had hired for the event had been toppled, presumably by the "yoof" of Reigate. How little we suspected how all of our lives would be affected by events that were beginning to unfold in China and Italy. You may recall that we hosted the last MABAC race before Lockdown One on 1st March 2020. MABAC League Race Priory Park 6th March 2022Īfter many months of discussions with Reigate and Banstead Borough Council and a great deal of effort from several club members yesterday (6th March) we were able to host our first MABAC event in more than two years. ![]()
