Here Comes Summer! The nights are becoming lighter and something is happening in the Leicestershire countryside. Walkers are being treated to the sight of a hoard of happy hoggs as we take our training into the highways and byeways of our beautiful county. Winter Wonders We've had record numbers of runners turning out for the Winter League races and as things stand, were at least holding our own. The ladies are locked in a tight battle with Hermitage and Fleckney for the second promotion place from Division 2. Chris: The end of a quest (see page 4). Our senior men are just shading Birstal for second Inside another packed edition: in Division 2 and our veteran men are fifth in Division 1, but the division is so tight that we are Mark's Marathon Tale (Page 2) only 3 points behind the second place team.

Keith organised a hat themed training session to celebrate the end of winter training. Not surprisingly, Baz won the prize for best outfit (or should that be bravery?). After the run, it was off to the Cow & Plough for chip butties. A bunch of ‘serious runners’.

Jon Heap and his Peter and Nick from the Foxhunter and half way partner were there as well. round I was in pain and I had more or less totally given up on doing the marathon. I did not run Although I wasn't prepared to do the event I am again for 7 days, and only did 2 miles with no happy I did. I'm in it again next year and pain. The next day I did 5 miles and felt hopefully I will keep buying the proper running knackered. I did nothing for the last two days shoes.

On the Saturday morning Rob, Matt and myself Mark Chamberlain met at the cafe at St. Maggy's, then went on our way down south. We met up with Andy there and booked in at the accommodation then went for our numbers. We had a few beverages and some smashing grub to see us through. 3 EUROADHOGG'S 2008 Hi Everyone, After the success of last years Benidorm Half Marathon in which Baz, Matt, Craig and myself took part a few members have expressed an interest in doing another race that is different than what we are used to. Below I have compiled a list of half a dozen that start from the beginning of September, they are: 1. Amsterdam Marathon and Half on the 19th October. 2. Calvia Majorca Half and Full on the 14th December. 3. Aviemore Half on the 19th October. 4. Aldernay Half on the 6th September. 5. Budapest Half on the 7th September. 6. Rotterdam Half on Tuesday 9th September. This is just a selection of events, if you have any preference from September then let me know. We will give it to the end of May to decide which event we are going to go for and then we will have enough time to train and save up. The more the merrier. I will get the relevant information about flights and accommodation when a decision has been made.

It highlights contemporary discourses on citizenship; ‘active citizens’ can ostentatiously fulfil their rights and responsibilities by raising money for those ‘in need’.

So far, I have heard plenty of moans on both sides :- Reading Support ‘Loitering’ (bus stop), ‘Loafing’ (village benches), ‘Littering’ (the Church entrance), "I blame the parents!"; At our recent School Governors’ Meeting it was agreed with "We've spent a fortune on facilities but we still get graffiti and the Head Teacher to seek assistance from retired members of vandalism!"; "zero tolerance is what is needed!".
