South Downs Way Relay
Sat 4 Jun 2016
The South Downs Way Relay is so popular that Phoenix was reduced to three teams this year from our usual four, to make room for newcomers. The race is limited to sixty teams of six, each with a support van and driver/navigator. The 100 miles from Eastbourne to Winchester is divided into eighteen legs so each runner does three during the course of a long extraordinary day.
The Phoenix A team (Donald Maclellan, Jose Muzio, Jim Whitelegg, James Miles, Alex Bonzi, Mark Cossey and driver/navigator Louise Gregory) suffered bad luck on the first leg with James injuring his ankle and unable to continue. Out of the race as such, they voted to carry on with their allotted legs but with the pressure off "running free". This proved to be a wise choice allowing Jose to break the club senior record for leg 5 and Donald to break the vet's records for legs 6 and 18!
The Phoenix B team (Pete Goodman, Jon Wright, Malcolm Kemp, Richard Thompson, Andrew Neighbour, Anita Jones and driver/navigator Sue Hudson) ended the day as silver medalists in that category, running 11:38.52 just 10 minutes behind the leaders.
The Phoenix women's team (Erica Martin, Bobby Searle, Liz Halliday, Hannah Carey, Kath Harnett, Caz Garrett with driver navigator Hildi Mitchell) were seventh out of 10 in their category in a respectable 13:33.55.
Well done everybody

Track and Field
Putbos Memorial Leon Buyle
Sat 4 Jun 2016
The Putbosstadion Vlierzele, Oordegem in Belgium, saw the lads from Brighton Phoenix all recording new PB’s in impressive style.
Robbie Fitzgibbon, who was fresh from a 5-week training stint in Flagstaff, Arizona with Mo Farah, Matt Centrowitz and Charlie Grice, became only the 25th U23 to dip under 3:40 for the 1500m. He was placed third in race two. This gives him the qualifying time for the U23 European Champs in Poland in a few weeks time and extra determination to qualify for the European Senior Championships in Amsterdam.
Archie Davis had posted another 1500m PB (3:45.43) in race 1, to move ever closer to the standard for the same Championships in Bydgoszcz, Poland.
Spencer Thomas was 1st in the 8oom 'After Programme' securing his long awaited World Junior Championships qualifying time with 1:48.24.
Sensational running guys.
All three runners will have the chance to improve their case for selection in a series of fast races later this month.

Sussex Grand Prix
Rye 10M

Surely one of the most attractive of the Sussex Grand Prix series. The sun always shines on this event with the route following the quietest of undulating country roads. There was a respectable Phoenix turnout and all turned in excellent performances. Paul Weir took third spot overall just half a minute behind the leader and Paul Whelpton and Andrew Haig won their respective age groups.
3rd Paul Weir 1:01.40
20th Paul Whelpton 1:07.33 1st M60

Road Race
Vitality Westminster Mile
Sun 29 May 2016
Eddie Harrison ran a terrific 6:03 for 53rd AG place in the U13s taking an impressive 15 seconds off his recent Brighton mini mile time. A messy start where he had to jump over a number of fallen athletes made this even more of an achievement.
Also on show was the ubiquitous Terry Avey whose 6:32 brought him yet another age group first.
Well done both
