George Richardson (Loughton) writes
What a turnout! This was a record field by a long way. If it gets any bigger, we'll have to start introducing qualifying standards!
For the first time, Veterans AC turned up in force, and they were rewarded with their first team victory in this long-running fixture.
Conditions were as good as you could expect for November: sunny for the start (but clouding over), light north wind, a reasonable 12 degrees Celsius and the course reasonably firm.
Bob Belmore was team captain.

Inter area match at Solihull – 8 August 2010 – VAC team report

With a bit more warning than last year, we managed to get together a rather bigger team than last year, and improve our positions in both the mens’ and womens’ matches, coming 6th in both and overall. Despite the wonders of email we did fail to contact some potential members of the team until too late or miss them altogether, so there is scope for improvement. The timing of the meeting two weeks after the European Championships also affected us, but also affected all the other teams, as some good athletes had got injured or called an end to their season for other reasons.

On the ladies’ side, last year we only had one athlete last year, Anna Garnier, but this year she was joined by three other W50s (Joan Trimble (100m, 200m and Relay), Fiona Argent (Shot, Long Jump, High Jump and Relay), Carole Wisdom (800m 1500m and Relay) and W60 Brenda Fee (100m and 400m). Anna did the 400m, 3000m and the 800m leg of the Medley Relay). Brenda won both her races, and Joan won the 100m, and there were good 2nd places from Anna in the 3000m and Joan in the 200m.

On the mens’ side, we had representatives in the M35-49s, M50s and M60s but no M70s. None of us was as successful individually as the ladies, with best results coming from Derek Wardle (2nd in the M60 400 and 200, 3rd in the 100m), John Browne (2nd in the M50 100m and 3rd in the M50 200m) and club President Peter Hannell (2nd in M60 2000m Walk) on the track and Brian Harlick ( 2nd M60 Pole Vault) in the field. In the M35-49s Robert Allen, Robert Peers, and Mike May did lots of events with varying success. Phil Bell and Mike Elwell did likewise in the M50s and Walter Wessely covered our middle and long distance events in the M60s. At the end of the meeting both the W50 women, and an M35 team of mixed age group men took part in the curiously ordered Medley Relay. The running order was 400m, 200m, 200m and 800m, so any club with a weaker 400m runner would find its sprinters too far behind to make any difference and as usual with a medley relay everything hinges on the prowess of the 800m runner.
