All a bit of a rush

I managed to tidy up the front page this morning as I had been adding content for the past week without removing any.

6 new marathon records

Thanks to Christine Bathgate for sending the updated records list for the Salclear events (double click the list to see larger version of file).

Coaching course

Here is something else I received a little while ago. I've added it to the front page for a couple of days although the main source of information will be at iomaa.info

Running and Fitness magazine

Thanks to Sue Ackroyd who sent me these two articles over a month ago but I have only just got around to using them (double click to see bigger versions of the images).

Photos from Monday

I used the video camera to take a few photos of the prize winners on Peel Hill on Monday night but when I took out the SD memory card I could not find them.

I realised why this morning - the settings for still photos are different and they were recorded onto the hard disk of the camera. I'm afraid that they are not very good (that is why I use a "proper" camera for still shots normally) and they were made worse by some marks on the lens after carrying the video up and down the hill but here are some of the them.

The best part of finding the photos is that I found a full set I had taken at the Steve Jacobs Mile in 2009 which I thought I had lost. One of those in particular was special. More on that tomorrow.

New England shirts revealed

1 out of 12 this year

We're a bit sad in this house today as Ben has just sailed to Liverpool and is not planning to be back until Easter. He wasn't at home from New Year until a month ago and for most of the time he has been home he has spent his daylight hours serving Manx Telecom customers. He has taken his car and possessions to Hull but then goes on holiday in France for a couple of weeks before returning to resume his studies - he still has 3 years to go! He has hardly done any running whilst he has been home so I don't think he will be able to join me in Amsterdam to run the half.
