    Brighton Phoenix 10k

    Wed 17 Jul 2013

    The weather was a little more favourable then last year for the 3rd Brighton Phoenix 10k! There was a great turnout with a record 462 runners turning up. The event ran smoothly thanks to race director Andy Bone and all of the other organisers and our UKA Race Adjudicator Bob page also had only good things to say about the event. Another big thank you to all of the marshals who turned up to help out.

    Congratulations to Burce Warren and Terry Avey who won their categories, Tom Farsides who came second in his and to Andrew Haig and Liz Durman who both narrowly missed out on 3rd by a matter of seconds. Dave Carter and Sean Scott also had a great race especially Sean who had ridden beforehand in preparation for the Duathlon World Champs in Ottawa, Canada next month.

    This was a fantastic outing for Phoenix at the opening Sussex Grand Prix event of the year. Jon Pepper was just a second behind the winner with Ian Leitch (4th) and Josh Guilmant (9th) winning the team event with the lowest points score anyone can remember. Not only that but Phoenix scored 10th and 20th with their B and C teams.

    Brighton 10K

    Sun 18 Nov 2012

    Great turnout for the club and some fine performances in near perfect racing conditions. Donald for example took well over a minute of his previous pb. First things first though. It's incredibly difficult to locate results when you terrible people are registering under all sorts of club names. BRIGHTON PHOENIX is correct for all events, running or multisport. We had Brighton Phoenix Tri, Phoenix AC and no club name at all. Important because this race was the Sussex 10k championship. If I haven't spotted you (or your pb), please email.

    There were 2729 finishers. The men's race was won by Paul Martelletti in 30 minutes dead and the women's race by Caryl Jones in 32:31 – a new course record.

    Sussex team and individual placings will be added as soon as available.

    Hastings 5M

    Sun 13 May 2012

    This is a fast and flat seafront out and back run and an SGP race. It was a beautiful sunny morning with just a light headwind on the out run. Phoenix were represented by just three vet runners but punched way above our weight coming 7th out of 36 scoring men's teams.

    Bruce Warren
    ran a superb 28:58 for seventh place (2nd MV45)

    Sat 5 May 2012

    The format for this is races on three consecutive days with a total distance adding up to 26.2 miles (ring any bells). The weather was miserable and each course was partially off-road so well done to the following, especially Sonal and Rik who bravely ran the two 10 milers:

    Barns Green Half Marathon

    Sun 30 Oct 2011

    One of the major SGP races and ever popular. Eight Phoenix athletes took part some of whom had been at the Phoenix party the night before. Doesn't seem to have affected them one bit!

    Lewes Downland 10M

    Sun 2 Oct 2011

    In previous years this race has been run in biting winds and teeming October rain but this year's conditions can best be described as 'mediterranean' with temperatures in the 80s. Seems to have encouraged a good few Phoenix athletes to the start line with eleven making the effort. Jake Elliot was the first home which given that he is still under 17 and that this is way over his usual distance is a great result.

    18th Jake Elliot 1:10:35

    Phoenix 10K

    Wed 20 Jul 2011

    The inaugural running of the Phoenix 10K was an undoubted success. Not only did the race sell-out but initial feedback from competitors is very positive. With chip-timing and well -organised facilities such as toilet provision, baggage tent, massage, PA (great work Tim) etc, the oveall impression was highly favourable and bodes well for the future.

    Congratulations have to go to Andy Bone who has steered the event with consumate organisational skill. The marshalling and bike-leading too was excellent with Liz Halliday, Eleanor Moore, Malcolm Kemp and others assuming responsibility. Particularly heartening was the raucus reception committee of junior athletes, organised by John Marinko, at the 5K turnaround point.

    It also turned out to be a high quality race with a sprint to the finish with Dean Lacey of Cambridge Harriers just edging out Phoenix's Ian Leitch by three seconds. Josh Guilmant of Phoenix was just 30 seconds back in third place. Phoenix won the men's team prize (Leitch, Guilmant, Hopkins, Hards). A special mention too for Terry Avey who's running has transformed this season. He was first in the over-60 category against a qualty field in that age-group, with a superb sub-40 run. Amazingly, this is his eighteenth age-group first this season.

    In the women's race Emma Richards of Hailsham Harriers was run away winner in 37:35, a substantial PB for her. The next two places were fought out by two V45 athletes. Elspeth Turner of Horsham Blue Stars was second in 38:17 and Cathy Ulliot of Brighton and Hove was third in 40:13.

    Thirty-one of us competed and here are our results (chip times). Well done everybody.

    Bewl 15M

    Sun 3 Jul 2011

    One of the most beautful races in the Sussex calender, the heat and distance nevertheless made it quite a challenge. Most of the route is on footpath around the shores of the Bewl Water reservoir, finishing at a sunlit meadow where, to the accompanyment of a brass band, the 600+ rrunners were treated to free refreshments including their justly famous selection of homemade cake. Bliss.

    Worthing 10K

    Wed 8 Jun 2011

    It was the wind wot won it. The new out-and-back course meant an initial wind-assisted 5k followed by the return leg into the teeth of a fierce and unrelenting gale. Not surprisingly times were a bit down but 621 finished this popular Grand Prix race on an otherwise warm, sunny evening. The race was won in 33:00 by Matt Dunigan of Worthing and District Harriers. Congratulations to our two prize winners Josh and Terry.
