Beautiful weather and a great turnout from the club both in terms of runners and marshals - lead bikes, course marshals, start/ finish marshals. well done everyone.

If you ran and dont appear below its probably because you ran under another name! - let us know who you were on the day...

Lance Bellers and Paul Lawrence both recorded pbs. Lance reported back:

It went really well, we planned to run the first five miles together and it worked out perfectly, we ran 6:40s and kept it nicely under control, resisted anything silly early doors. Paul was happy to carry on so we did another couple, past seven mile marker but gradually I started to feel it so told him to push on which he did but we both had a great platform to go from by that point.

Weather wasn't great, very cold and wet with some wind on exposed bits but it wasn't the all-out onslaught I was dreading so could have been a lot worse. I think on a calm day though it would be very quick, worth bearing in mind. The start was a bit weird, had time to reset my watch before even crossing the actual timer line but apart from that was well run, lots of marshals and free cuppa at the end.

Billy White was first and Jake Algar second in intermediate boys

Will Durkin was first and Robbie Fitzgibbon second in senior boys

Chloe Watson was 5th and Charlotte Matthews 6th in the junior girls

Full results and news of other phoenix athletes

Shock, horror. 16 men turned up to run the senior race!. Was it the fine weather and firm going that attracted such numbers?. Like heck it was. It was cold, blustery, wet and like a swamp underfoot. Still, mustn't complain – there were some great performances leaving us well positioned in a good few categories.

U13 Girls
The star team this year. Winners on the day and consolidated as gold medal team overall. Congratulations to Naomi Fonteyn 2nd, Almi Nerurkar 4th, Chloe Watson 6th, Charlotte Matthews 8th and Izzie Whitelegg 16th.

U15 Girls
No representation!

U17/U20/Sen/Vet women
Second on the day and second overall by just 5pts, the women are well poised for promotion to division 1. They need an optimum turnout for the final race. Vets are a modest 12th. Erica Martin 19th, Megan Bradford 22nd and Paule Kremer 38th were scorers, ably backe up by Hildi Mitchell 61st and Liz Halliday 64th.

U13 boys
Well done to Jack Etherton for coming a handy 24th. With no backup that meant a lowly 14th place and the team are languishing in 10th spot overall.

U15 boys
A fine win for this well-organised team. Overall they are 4th but within easy reach of bronze. Archie Davis 2nd, Matt Berridge 8th, Oliver Johnson 11th, Harry Swindells 20th, Chris McGarry 21st, Will Russell 22nd. Great teamwork guys.

U17 men
Another terrific team effort and a wonderful front-running win by Robbie Fitzgibbon resulted in second position on the day and  first place overall by just 10 points. All to play for guys. Robbie Fitzgibbon 1st, Jake Alger 5th, Sam Kitchen 9th.

U20/sen/vet men
Too many to mention everyone but turnout and performances were uniformly impressive. Ben Tickner 3rd, Daryll Hards 6th, Tom Hopkinson 8th, Jose Luceron 16th,  Bruce Warren (Vet 50) 30th and Robin Fitzgibbon (V40) 43rd. scored for the senior A team. Bruce, Robin and Adam Tribe 46th scored for the vet A team. There were A, B, C, and D teams in both categories. Both teams were second on the day with the seniors comfortably in silver position overall and the vets needing to make up just 6 points to move in to silver spot at the final event. In fact the deficit of 23 points for gold is not impossible.

Full results.

As the name suggests, this is not an easy race.There were 236 finishers.

The very much in form Phoenix vet Donald Maclellan was our only representative and he took the race by storm, winning in a time of 1:00:26.

To give an idea of the quality of this performance, the second placed runner was 46 seconds adrift and the third almost two minutes behind.

Great run Donald.

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.

The positions are gun and the times chip.

County medals are now confirmed. Brighton Phoenix were bronze medalists in the team competition (Guilmant, Miles, Atkinson). We might have done better but the placings suggest that not everyone was correctly registered.

Conditions were perfect. Sunny but not too hot; no wind. Perhaps a little muddy underfoot, but what a day. A decent turnout from Phoenix, and we came away with a bunch of medals.There were particularly fine runs from Paule Kremer who was first woman in the five miler, James Miles who was fourth in the 10 miler and Liz Durman who was second woman (first senior woman) in the 10 miler. Andrew Haig was first M65 in the 10 miler.

A perfect summer evening for the annual club Handicap run.  A good turnout and a very tight finish amongst the field due to good handicapping ( and not believing everything the runners said about their level of fitness!)

30 athletes took part in the 3rd league meet of the Under 13 league at Eastbourne.
A fantastic turnout.

The rain it rained and the wind it did blow but congratulations to Andy Bone and team for organising another exceptional event. Anecdotal feedback confirms that this race is rapidly gaining in status.
