CAPTION COMPETITION
What did Damaris say to Helen that was so shocking? Why was Nick looking the other way? What was Kal staring at? Was Kieran holding up the whole pub? Whose hand was struggling to get into the picture? You decide……
The photograph, if you haven’t guessed by now, was taken at our September
social evening at The Bridge pub. A gold medal to Damaris for organising the
event and sponsoring a raffle prize or two - and thanks to everyone who made
it such a fun night. All ideas for our Christmas bash gratefully received.....
MARATHON MEN
Good luck to Dave Kelly,
who's running the Abingdon Marathon on October 22. Dave has pioneed a new
approach to training that involves combining two of the three triathlon disciplines.
When cycling into the River Thames at speed becomes an Olympic sport, possibly
in 2012, Dave will be among the medal favourites.
Good luck too to Nick Willan, who's taking part in the Great North Run half
marathon on October 1.

CHANGING FACES
Our founder, Janet Stansfield, has sadly stepped down as club secretary. We
are all very grateful to Janet for her efforts in creating Barnes Runners
- we wouldn't be here today were it not for her drive and enthusiasm. Hopefully,
Janet will still take the occasional training session, where members can benefit
from her expertise as a personal trainer - and learn to bear-walk. We all
wish Janet well with her business - you may have spotted the odd link to www.youniquefitness.co.uk
on our own website www.barnesrunners.co.uk.
Happy Running
David
