SNOW JOKE AS HALL ROMPS HOME
The Xtreme Challenge held on Sunday February 5th at the Catton Hall Estate near Alrewas attracted a field of 200+ entrants and the arctic conditions caused by up to 3 inches of snow on the Saturday before only served to encourage more effort and human bravado from the exertions of the hardy runners that took part.
The course, an approximate 10k in length consisted of a 2 lap circuit of the estate grounds and was made up of steep gradients, deadly declines, wicked man-made obstacles more suited for equine athletes, tunnels, 12 foot high hay bales, icy water that saw some athletes have to virtually skate over, but as things ‘warmed up’ others had to wade through up to their chests and all laced with that magic ingredient… deep snow!!
First person home was Uttoxeter RR athlete Robert Hall, second last year but now triumphant in a time of 39:15, the only sub 40 min runner in the field. He was chased home by Alistair Gorrie who finished in 40:29 with Jacob Fry coming in third in 41.21.
First of the many women taking part was Stafford Triathlon Club’s Jen Seager in 50:49 who finished in front of Hallamshire Harriers’ Emily Morton in 52:46 with Joanna Rooney third in 53:24. A special well done to Dan Gibson aged 13, who came 29th!

CLAMP TRIUMPHS IN THE KINGSBURY MUD
Tipton Harriers veteran athlete Phil Clamp won the second running of the KP CORPORATE KINGSBURY WATER PARK 10K on Sunday Nov 27th in windy but fine conditions on a course that had plenty of muddy paths and wetland areas to make it a testing event for all 300 + who entered.
Clamp, an expert runner in the cross country genre started strongly and gradually eased his way to the front early on and left the others to do the chasing in the vain hope of catching him, but his time of 33:21 was testament to his abilities in tough conditions. First woman home was Ute Baird of Team Raidlight in 43:07.

Results – Sutton Park Super Man – 11th Sept 2011
Sep 14th
This joint event with Cancer Research WEST MIDLANDS was a new event designed to appeal to men in a similar vein to the very successful RACE FOR LIFE womens’ events.
Participants dressed as a Superhero of their choice and had to take on some interesting challenges around the specially designed 9k route of Sutton Park, including wetting stations, cargo nets, steep inclines, woody trails and then run through foam at the finish line.
Well done to all the the runners, fund raisers and everyone else who helped to organise this successful fun run. Over 200 Batmen, Spidermen, Buzz Lightyears, Invincibles, Wonder Women and others braved the windy conditions to raise thousands of pounds for such a good cause.

winner Peter Middleton
winner Phillippa Morris
The Alpha Sports Sutton Park 10k drew a field of 200 on a blisteringly hot summer’s day. We heeded the forecast and rerouted the course slightly on the Saturday before to ensure more of the course was in the shade and less hills were encountered.
The race was won by Peter Middleton in 35.55, followed by Brian Maynard in 36.66 and in third place Andrew Hunt 39.15. First female home was Phillippa Morris in 43.41 – which also secured her 20th place overall, in second was Emma Lines in 47.06 and Emma Tod 3rd female in 47.15. Here are the full results:
