WAKEFIELD DISTRICT HARRIERS & AC

MID-WEEK DISTANCE RUNNING LEAGUE

NEWSLETTER 62  29^th March 2003

A record number of eight lady entrants took to the roads around Carlton and Robin Hood in the 10^th race of the series.  Newcomer Carmen Pidcock made the running to come home 12 seconds ahead of league leader Denise Green, with Jane Senior and Dot Hand following.  Denise edged slightly further in the lead in the league table but as there are two meetings left, we still can’t crown her league champion. The men’s event was led home, in Steve Tibbs’ absence, by Rob Parfrey who had an 8 seconds lead over Richard West.  Steve’s absence puts the division one title once more within reach of Rob and Tony White and Steve can’t afford to miss another of the last two events.  The Vets championship really is a two horse race now, with 7 points separating Tony Audsley and Stuart Anderson.  Again, Tony can’t afford to miss either of the last two events. 

Accounts

We had £169-00 in the kitty.  We took £30-00 in entry fees.  Prizes cost £13-00, leaving us with a balance of £186-00.

Next Event

Owing to the late Easter, next month’s league event will be held on 8^th May and will go from Walton WMC.  The entry fee will be £1-50, with no food provided.  Tony Audsley will be putting on the route.
