Congratulations to all who ran at the Southern Road Relays in Aldershot. It was out best ever turnout at this top class event. With 4 full teams, with the A-team finishing in 5th position out of 92 teams, which equals our best ever position.

The Southern road relays are on Sat 27th Sept. Book in diaries. It is Aldershot as usual. We're looking for a strong M40 and M50 teams, so Luke says no excuses. It would be good if you could race either assembley league at beckenham or club 5000m so the selectors can have a look at current form.

Congratulations to all the competitors in the 2008 Sidcup 10 on Sunday 10th Feb. There was strength in depth at the front of the field, producing some of the fastest times for a few years. Ben Noad of Highgate was first home, breaking 50 minutes in a time of 49:58.

Kent AC’s 110th Anniversary is in 2008.

To celebrate this fantastic achievement the club is planning a trip to run in the New York Marathon on Sunday 2nd November 2008.

Those who are seriously interested in taking part please let Adrian Musson know NO LATER THAN THE SECOND WEEK IN DECEMBER 2007 WITH A £200 DEPOSIT TO SECURE GUARANTEED PLACES.

On Saturday, there was an excellent turnout for the junior & U17 men and womens team at the second Kent XC league race of the season. The junior team finished in 2nd place and remain in 2nd place in the overall standings.

Sounds a bit the like the title of a folk tune, but it is running related. A number of club athletes were out in action over the weekend 8/9 September in a number of road races (and probably more that I'm not aware of!) Some great performances with no less than three first places.

Kent AC men's team finished 14th (the club's best result ever) at the National 12 stage Road Relays at Sutton Park on 14 April 2007, being the first Kent club home, with Jermaine Mays and Gary Thornton having storming runs posting the 3rd and 8th fastest long legs of the day respectively.

After the dreadful weather of the previous week, we were relieved that only a few showers and a moderate wind spoilt otherwise perfect running conditions. As the record field of 400 sped off down Hurst Road, multi Kent County X-country champion Barry Royden opened up an early lead, but by halfway round the first of the 3 laps he had been joined by Kent's James Connor.

Onward and upward. Kent AC's best ever performance in the National Road Relays in Birmingham to come 12th. Jermaine selected to run for Great Britain in Japan.

On Saturday 21st October the National 6 stage road relay championship was held in Sutton Coldfield; this historic event draws together the 80 best teams in the country who have won qualification from their regional championships and each of the six team members run a 3.

Great performances in the Southern Road Relays 23rd Sept 2006 Aldershot. Each team produced Kent AC's best ever performance. The M40's won bronze medals. The Senior Men came 5th with Jermaine doing the 3rd fastest leg of the day.
