London Marathon 22 April 2018

Over 30 VAC members completed the Virgin Money London Marathon in unseasonably hot conditions which did not promise fast times. Nevertheless, there were some great achievements.

Lynda Hembury was ranked Number One in the W60-64 listing with a superb time of 3:28.33. Susanna Harrison’s time of 3:25.46 placed her fourth in the W55-59 ranking, while Fiona Russell was 10th W45-49 in 3:14.02. For the men, in the M60-64 category, Jon Cross was second in 3:03:46 and Steve Smythe 10th in 3:16:39.

The first VAC member to finish was Richard McDowell in 2:27.56, placing him 11th in the M18-39 age category and 15th in the whole non-elite men’s race. He was one of the few who ran faster than last year and was rewarded with a PB by over seven minutes. Kent AC’s Stuart Beaney was next for VAC in 2:42.25, placing him 25th in the highly competitive M40-44 age group. He was closely followed by clubmate, Robert Laing, in 2:42.35 for 28th place.

On a good day for Kent AC, Victoria Buck was the first VAC woman to finish in a time of 3:12.51, placing her 27th in the similarly highly competitive W40-44 age group.

VAC’s Club place had been won in the ballot by Dave Hoben. As a race-walker, he was on the course for a testing 6 hours 26 seconds, but coped well.   

Special congratulations go to Bill O’Connor who is famous as one of the 11 remaining London Marathon “Ever-Presents”. He kept up his amazing record and competed for the 38th time, completing the course in 5:46.09. For 2018’s marathon, it is reported happily that all the 11 ever-presents started, and all finished.

The VAC members’ results, below, have been compiled by scanning the Virgin Money London Marathon results website. Inevitably, I am bound to have missed some members. Apologies if you are not included. Please let me (Maggie at entries@vetsac.org.uk ) know your placings, and I will amend the list. I have included several VAC members whose subscriptions expired on 31 March. If you are one of them, I hope you will renew soon. Your continued membership is appreciated.

Over 30 VAC members completed the Marathon in ideal cool and dry weather conditions. Thomas Payn (M35) once again led the way in a super-fast time of 2:22:19 to place 13th of all the non-elite men. VAC cross country champion, Richard Mcdowell (M35) was next for VAC, setting a PB of 2:35:17. Nine VAC men went under three hours with some fine placings by Andrew Mitchell (M45), Stuart Fraser (M50) and Len Reilly (M55) in the top 20 for their age groups.

The first three VAC women posted times within two minutes of each other. Ange Norris set a PB of 3:08:29 to place a magnificent 3rd in the W55 age group. Fiona Russell’s 3:09:07 put her 9th W45 and Susanna Harrison was 5th W50 in 3:10:14. For the W60s, Avril Riddell was a fine 10th in 3:48:18.

VAC’s walkers were represented by Dave Hoben whose time of 5:54:03 was faster than last year’s and comfortably below 6 hours.  

Special congratulations go to Bill O’Connor who is one of the 11 remaining London Marathon “Ever-Presents”. He kept up his amazing record and competed for the 37th time, completing the course in 5:30:48.

VAC Members at the Virgin London Marathon: 24 April 2016

At least 34 VAC members took to the streets of London in the 2016 Virgin London Marathon. Our fastest was Thomas Payn (M35), the recent BMAF 10k champion, who set a magnificent time of 2:21:20. VAC cross country champion, Paul Cheetham, getting faster every year, was next for VAC, setting a PB of 2:34:05, taking a very good 20th position in the M40 age group. David Symons was the third VAC-placer, running 2:42:08 to achieve 25th place in the very competitive M45 age group.  

For the women, Clare Elms set a new PB of 2:53:52 to head the W50 age group, and take a remarkable 31st place in the whole women’s field. Well done to Victoria Buck (W40), Susanna Harrison (W50), Pippa Major (W50), Lynn Wilson (W55) and Ann Bath (W65) who all achieved top 50 age group placings.  

VAC’s walkers were ably represented by John Ralph and Dave Hoben.  

Special congratulations go to Bill O’Connor who is one of the 12 remaining London Marathon “Ever-Presents”. Happily, he kept up his fantastic record and competed for the 36th time, completing the course in 5:18:35.

The first time I've done over 4 hours but it was not very nice in the heat, and as you know I don't run very much (about 300 miles last year but cycled 9500 miles) I raised over £1000 for Downs Syndrome Scotland in memory of my cousin who died age 27 playing rugby of sudden death syndrome, and leaves his sister who has Downs as an only child.

With such a low running mileage at least I never get injured.
