Sunday 21st March - Open University, Milton Keynes The Brighton and Hove mens team were in action today at the Open University in Milton Keynes for the Southern Road Relay Championships. The relay alternates 6 long legs (7978m) and 6 short legs (5506m) It was a much improved performance this year as we posted our fastest time and position for 9 years, 4:37:38 and 14th to qualify for the National Road Relays for the 6th year in succession. It was Chris Thomson who in the spring sunshine set off the team to an excellent start. Chris who has recently posted times of 31:02 and 69:55 for 10k and Half Marathon respectively ran the team into seventh position with 24:46. Richard Airey took over on second leg and held off a number of good runners for 18:26. After finishing just ahead of fellow Sussex runner Ben Warren, Rich was happy that he managed to hold off Ben despite the Harrow runner's time of 17:14. The remainder of the race was spent in the between 11th and 16th position and with some big gaps appearing later on as the field spread out a few of our runners had lonely runs. The aim at the start of the day was to qualify for the National Road Relays at Sutton Park, Birmingham on 17 April. There was talk that we were good enough to maybe finish in the top 15. With both of these goals achieved we went home after an excellent day out looking forward to doing it all again in three weeks time. | 14 | | Brighton & Hove City AC 'A' | | | 4:37:38 | | | 1 | | Chris Thomson | 24:46 | 7 | 24:46 | | | 2 | | Richard Airey | 18:26 | 11 | 0:43:12 | | | 3 | | Kevin Mason | 27:53 | 16 | 1:11:05 | | | 4 | | David Boyce | 18:38 | 14 | 1:29:43 | | | 5 | | Martyn Bean | 27:19 | 16 | 1:57:02 | | | 6 | | Zarad Hale | 19:12 | 16 | 2:16:14 | | | 7 | | Andrew Donno | 26:53 | 14 | 2:43:07 | | | 8 | | Craig Walker | 18:56 | 12 | 3:02:03 | | | 9 | | Luke Lambourne | 27:14 | 11 | 3:29:17 | | | 10 | | Josh Mutch | 18:29 | 11 | 3:47:46 | | | 11 | | Matthew Bristow | 27:13 | 11 | 4:14:59 | | | 12 | | Dan Titheradge | 22:39 | 14 | 4:37:38 |

The junior's team coach had to take a detour through Reigate on the way to the SEAA Championships on Saturday 30th January. The M23 was closed between junctions 8 and 9 and the resulting diversion delayed the coach by over an hour. This meant that the Under 15 boys missed the start of the first race of the day. The Under 15's have proved dominant at County level all season and were hoping for a good showing at the Southerns. Unfortunately the team were at the top of Hampstead Heath Hill, still on the coach, when the gun went off for the start of the race.
Having managed to get to Parliament Hill in time the Under 13 boys made sure they were on the line ready for the third race of the day. James Oliver continued to build on his good form this year with an excellent 11th place completing the muddy 3K in 11:55. Tom O'Brien shook off his ankle injury worries to come home 118th of the 212 finishers in 13:37, Harry Sullivan-Jones wasn't far behind in 146th, 14:05, with Aiden Silsby completing the team in 209th, 17:07. The team finshed 24th of 34.
The Under 17's had time to get properly warmed up for their 6K race at 12:10. This helped the boys put in a good team performance. Will Gray relished the conditions leading the team home in 21st place of the 189 finishers with a time of 21:54. The next two boys played cat and mouse through the race with Kieran Silsby proving too strong in the final run in, finishing 52nd in 22:34. TW, who the boys were calling 'Liam' all day was given the same time in 53rd, Not bad seeing it was his first run at this distance. Alec Rice was not able to repeat his strong run at the County Champs and came in 76th, 23:12. The team finished 6th of 22.
