  • Blackheath & Bromley Courier
    Blackheath & Bromley Courier November 2019. President 2019-20. Julian Golding. Editor. Pat Calnan ([email protected]) From 150 Years to Tipping Point? 23rd October 1869. Happy birthday to us! The Club History quotes “Bells Life In London” of Weds October 27th 1869 on the first run of Peckham Hare & Hounds, “The first meet of this Club took place on Saturday, the 23rd inst., at the King’s Arms, Peckham Rye…. The hares… were sent off at four o’clock, and led the “run” through Goose Green, Denmark Hill, Lordship Lane, Dulwich, Sydenham, Forest Hill, and back to the Rye, making a run from nine to ten miles. Time of running, 97 minutes”. Peckham Hare & Hounds became Peckham AC, who became Blackheath Harriers, who became Blackheath Harriers, Bromley, who became Blackheath & Bromley Harriers AC on merging with Bromley AC, who had previously been Bromley Ladies AC, Wigmore Ladies AC and originally Wigmore Harriers. Throw in a number of HQ changes, the Boer War, First World War, Second World War etc etc… it’s been a long journey. Happily the Club birthday fell on a Wednesday Night and those attending our Clubhouse were treated to free beer. We saw some people we had not seen for some time such as Carolyna Haley (nee Jones Baldock) and Mark Colpus, one of the scoring 6 when we won the Senior Mens National Cross Country title for the first time in 1994. John Turner brought greetings from Bill Clapham, who had earlier in the day cycled part of the original course at the age of 89, and from David Johnson who is currently in hospital.

  • Sports Snapshot
    Sports Fundraising Market Snapsh t 2018 Mass participation sports events provide an excellent opportunity for charities to recruit, engage and inspire people to fundraise for them. Whilst not all charities have their own mass participation events, the majority utilise third party events delivered by ‘commercial’ providers for fundraising activity. The Sports Fundraising Snapshot is our annual review of this market. Which are the biggest events for sports fundraising? Working with our charity partners and ‘justcharity.org’ we have updated our estimate of the UK’s 25 most important mass participation sporting events for fundraising. Collectively we estimate this group of events enabled charities to raise more than £135M last year.

I think this is a record for the number of articles in the club Newsletter. THANK YOU to each one of the contributors. I’m certain you will all agree with me – these are excellent articles! Michael Percival is not only a fantastic runner, he also writes some pretty entertaining race reviews. Run with him a bit further on in this edition. Nick Carter and Stef Neale keep us local with the Great South Run. Lee Westwood takes us on a Road trip to Birmingham whilst Ben Jarvis expertly paces us through the Birmingham Marathon. This month’s cover photo is all about determination, with a bit of spookiness added. Maybe I’m thinking a bit deep, but to me the “ghost print” is the image of everything you do from the point after you’ve entered a race from pre-race training plans, nutrition, dedication, discipline, perhaps frustration or injury, tiredness all the way through to our individual race experience, and the race result – whether that is what we expected or not (or whether your wife made you run harder than what you really wanted to!) ☺If you’ve prepared well, you’ll have a very clear ghost print.

    Title of meeting: Cabinet Member for Culture and City Development Date of meeting: 20 March 2020 Subject: Great South Run Contract Report by: Director of Culture, Leisure and Regulatory Services Wards affected: All Key decision: No Full Council decision: No 1. Purpose of report 1.1 To outline to the Cabinet Member the proposal for new contract between the Council and Nova International following the completion of the current contract to deliver the Great South Run after the 2020 event. 2. Recommendations 2.1 That officers are authorised to enter into negotiations with Nova International to continue to hold the Great South Run in Portsmouth with a new contract in order to retain this iconic event in the city. 3. Background 3.1 The Great South Run started life in Southampton in 1990 as the Diet Coke Great South run (as it was known) attracting 2,500 entries before moving to Portsmouth 12 months later where it will have been held for the past 30 years after the delivery of the 2020 event. The fast flat route has now become an international gold standard where, with the support of prevailing winds in the right direction it has given thousands of people the opportunity to achieve a personal best time as well as fundamentally encouraging participation in mass physical activity. 3.2 This 10 mile event attracts a wide range of participates from the international athletics elite to the charity fundraisers with this mid distance event supporting runners as they progress from the 10km routes up to the half marathon. As a renowned European IAAF Gold Label Road Race the event attracts some of the most successful professional runners with world class athletes such as Sonia O'Sullivan, Paula Radcliffe and Mo Farah to name but a few.
