Results are published here in date order, latest at the top. If you have any results to add, please email the webmaster (see contact us page).

Nowadays quite a lot of races only show club name for EA registered runners. This is very frustrating as it makes it much more difficult to find Hardley results. If I miss you please email me. Or better still, join EA.

Geoff Mills Trophies

Geoff was a prolific racer who represented Hardley in pretty well every local race even into his 80s. To celebrate his love of racing his daughters donated two floating trophies, one for women and one for men. They are awarded annually to the two Hardley members who represent our Club in the most races in the RR10, HRRL, HCCL and CC6 Leagues plus the Hampshire, South of England and National Cross Country Championships. The more races you complete, the more points you get, with a current maximum of 33 events.

The 10th RR10 - IBM Hursley -17 August 2022

Click on the photo to see an album, with thanks to Derek Jennings

Dan reports,

The final RR10 of the 2022 season was at IBM Hursley hosted by Eastleigh runners. A 30 second hand clap was given by all the runners before the start in respect of Eastleigh runner and organiser David Hawkins. The course was similar to previous years with one lap of a grass field, before 2 laps around the IBM grounds running over grass, gravel and tarmac. There were some tight turns and twists and some short sharp inclines, which was actually a very challenging course to complete.

Leading the ladies' home was Jo Avery in 45th place, Jane Hodge in 49th and a very low F60 placing, and Lisa Lewis in 56th place with a very good F50 placing.

First male home was Dan Latham in 32nd place, Nathan Renyard in 46th place and Matt Casey in 72nd place. Kevan Day finished well in the M60's in 88th place and Mick Anglim finished in a great 164th M70's placing.

Roy Van Hal was involved in a great finishing battle with a Southampton AC runner over the final lap of the cricket pitch as we cheered him in.

Thanks again everyone for coming out to run, it makes the organisation all worthwhile! We will do a final round up of the seasons results once they are published.

The 9th RR10 - Badger Farm Winchester - 3 August 2022

Dan reports

Run 9 of the RR10 series was at Badger Farm in Winchester, in the Words of Mick Anglim; "since 1985 this is the toughest RR10 course we've ever had". It was an enjoyable run though, with a very simple and effective course; run uphill for 2K, then run down hill for 2K through a wooded gulley and look out for the roots, and then do it again.

There was a smaller ladies attendance tonight, with Lisa Lewis first home in 39th place, closely followed by Jane Hodge in 41st place, Sarah Fitton in her best finish this year 59th and Jo Blackmore in 106th.

First home for the men was Dan Latham in his highest RR10 position 20th, Simon Ibbotson in another consistent 42nd. Matt Casey & Aaron Pritchard would have run hand-in-hand if the gulley was wide enough, finishing in 68th & 69th.

We also had some very high placed age category results; so well done to Lisa Lewis, Jane Hodge, Kevan Day and Mick Anglim.

Andy Kellaway made a return to the series with his first run post lock-down finishing respectably in 111th.

Well done all, great efforts on a very tough course, but it seemed to suit us Hill Efficient Hardleys, thank you coaches it's clearly paying off!!! The next Final RR10 of the year is at IBM Hursley on 17th August starting at 7pm, hope to see as many of you there for the season finale (there's still time to run your first RR10 in 2022) !!!

The 8th RR10 - University Playing Fields - 20 July 2022

Dan reports:

Tonight, was the 8th Round of the RR10 Trail Run Series at the University Playing Fields, Wide Lane, Eastleigh. Luckily the heatwave passed and there was a cooler breeze tonight, but still very hot running conditions. The course was pancake flat but that meant the pace was fast and relentless.

Firstly, congratulations to Sam Messer who after completing the beginners 5K course earlier this year, completed his first RR10 (7.6K) in a very respectable position, absolutely brilliant!! It also was great to see the return of Paul Newby one of our top M70's who has returned after suffering an unfortunate calf tear in the spring. Roy Van Hal and Rob Wells received the biggest cheer from the Itchen and Hamwic marshals tonight finishing strongly.

Jo Avery has got the RR10 bug and competed again bringing the ladies home in a great 33rd place. Lisa Lewis was our second lady in 61st place and our 3rd lady was Sarah Fitton in 75th place.

The first runner back for the men was Dan Latham in 24th Place, his highest RR10 placing to date. Second back was Simon Ibbotson in a highly consistent 41st place, with Matt Casey third home making huge improvement to finish in 60th place.

Well done everyone, great running. The next penultimate RR10 is at the great Badger Farm course in Winchester (the CC6 venue which has not yet been run in the summer RR10 Series). This is on Weds 3rd August at the earlier start time of 7:15pm. See you there, Rob & Dan

The 7th RR10 - Manor Farm Country Park - 6 July 2022

Dan reports:

It was a hot evening and the 4.5 mile single lap course featured a variety of long up hill and long down hill sections, it was hard work and the usual final hill was thrown in to finish us off.

Hardley fielded a team of 7 ladies and 16 men. Leading the ladies home in her debut RR10 was Jo Avery in a brilliant 27th position. Jane Hodge was second home in 42nd place and Lisa Lewis was our third lady in 62nd place. The men were led home by Matt James in a great 24th Place, with Dan Latham in 30th and Simon Ibbotson in 41st place.

It was great to see Ann Bruce-Low return to the series our only V80 to compete this year. Also, brilliant to see Aaron Pritchard making a return after a long time out suffering with injury. The following runners all made considerable gains on the last RR10 all improving by 20 or more places; Simon Ibbotson, Dave Wilson, Rob Wells.

In the age grade league prior to tonight's run we currently have the following positions M50 10th Paul Blundell, M70 5th Jeremy Barber, Mick Anglim 7th, Mike Smith 8th. (Mick and Mike only had 3 finishes at time of these positions). F60 Jane Hodge 4th, F70+ Chris Harris 1st, Ann Bruce-Low 3rd.

The next run is at Uni Playing Fields, Wide Lane, Eastleigh on 20th July start time 7:30pm.

The Exbury 10K - Sunday 26 June 2022

A personal view from Hannah Cockle.

Click on the thumbnail to see Hannah storming to the finish.

It hasn’t happened since 2016 – so naturally a lot of Hardley Runners were excited to attend this year’s Exbury Gardens 10k, originally a Hardley organised race. We all knew it would be a beautiful course with great support and the 1,000 limit sold out quickly!

After parking up, collecting numbers (always great to be greeted with volunteers from your own club) and a few last-minute warmups, we were ready to toe the line. There was some hesitation as the MC asked the elite (sub-40) runners to move to the start line, a lot of modesty among the group! But then we were off with a quick lap around the Gardens before heading out on the mostly downhill road to Lepe. I started near the front and could see our own Hardley Runner, Tim Anetts, out in front.

The first half, as always, seemed to go very well. Quite a few 5k PB’s were had thanks to the descent to the sea. Before the turn around point, I saw Tim, now in second but just off the shoulder of the first runner. “Keep pushing Tim” I manged to squeak out. Then on the sea front I saw the first female runner from Ryde Harriers and not far behind her our very own Alice Rudd in second. Then the Hardley Runners came thick and fast, Dan, Laura, Carl, Paul – just behind me – Karen, Tamsin, Mick, Jane, the list went on… each of us cheering the other.

Support around the course was amazing but of course as we turned around to run uphill and into some strong winds, things got tougher. It was fantastic however to see the number of happy smiling runners out on the course.

I looked at my watch at around 35minutes and knew that people would be finishing but I didn’t know how Tim and Alice were getting on. Back into the gardens and across the finish line – more amazing club volunteers handing out medals and much needed bottles of water. I went straight up to the Hardley gang and saw Tim and Alice both with prizes in hand – Tim in first and Alice with second female!!! I would later hear about the cheers as both, and everyone else, came in to cross the line. A bit of a race at the end but with Tim having 10 seconds over second place.

Well done to every single runner out there, and a massive thanks to all the gorgeous volunteers.

The Lymington Times report

Click here to see the published report.

The first Exbury 10k was held in March 2008 and was the brainchild of Martin Loveless of Hardley Runners. Fittingly it was won by Mike Cummings who led the Hardley men to the first team prize. The race was limited to 250 runners as the course included the shingle path along Lepe foreshore. That path was destroyed by a storm in 2014 and the race distance was then changed to 5 miles until 2016. For various reasons the race has not been run since so it very exciting for Hardley to be approached in 2021 by Steve Collins the Race Director of the very successful Eastleigh 10k. Steve is very used to arranging road closures as the Eastleigh race has around 3,000 runners through busy streets and his aim was to resurrect the Exbury 10k course with closed roads in the summer of 2022 and to attract up to 1,000 runners.

With free entry into Exbury Gardens for runners and half price for supporters the race was a sell out and last Sunday with sunny but windy conditions there were 862 finishers. There were a couple of teething issues with the start delayed for 15 minutes due to parking problems in the overspill hayfield and the water station at Lepe was disrupted by the blustery winds. Overall however the race was a great success and Exbury Gardens has already agreed a date for 2023.

The course is very scenic with a start loop through the Gardens before heading out through Exbury village mostly downhill to the very windy U turn before Lepe Country Park. With runners heading in both directions until the left turn back into Inchmery Lane it was a very supportive atmosphere with runners encouraging each other.

The leading runner after the turn was unattached Thomas Stevens with Hardley’s Tim Anetts on his shoulder. The uphill return leg was tougher with the blustery wind and Tim took the lead to win by 10 seconds in 34:15.

The ladies race was won in 38:32 by Holly Newton of Ryde Harriers with Alice Rudd of Hardley in 2nd and first F35 in 39:24.

Tim led Dan Latham (37:27) and M50 Carl Hall (40:28) for the first men’s team prize mirroring Hardley’s success in the inaugural race.

Alice led F35 Laura Porter (46:11) and Hannah Cockle (47:04) to win the ladies team award.

Mick Anglim of Hardley won the M70 award in 48:50.

Many of the runners and their families stayed to picnic after the race and enjoy the Gardens and steam train.

Congratulations go to Steve Collins for bringing the race back to life, to Sarah Fitton and her team of Hardley Runners who handed out drinks, race T shirts and medals and to all of the runners who completed the course and thanks go to Exbury Gardens for hosting the race again.

The 6th RR10 - Romsey - Weds 22 June 2022

Dan reports:

Tonight's RR10 hosted by Romsey Road Runners was at a new venue; New Forest Outdoor Learning Centre at Ridge Lane Romsey. The course was unique by the fact that it followed the route of a grass cyclo cross course. It was tight and twisty and very undulating, there was a departure into a wood section and back out up a steep hill back onto the track to complete the lap, and the two further laps to complete the 3 lap course. It was tough but great fun and very different.

First home for the club was Matt James in a brilliant 12th Place, followed by Callum Johnson who despite an ankle twist managed to over take 7 people in the final lap to finish 19th, and in 3rd was Dan Latham who could not contain his eager first lap pace finally finishing in 28th.

First home for the ladies was Hayley Coates in 43rd place, with Jane Hodge in 53rd and Sarah Fitton in her highest placing this year 69th.

It was a great turn out tonight with 27 runners completing the course, well done all.

The next run is at Manor Farm Country Park, on 6th July at an earlier start time of 7pm, see you there!!

The 5th RR10 - Ampfield Woods - Weds 8 June 2022

Tonight, was the 5th race (4th for us) of the RR10 Trail Series. 5 Ladies and 19 men tackled the run at Ampfield woods, which uses parts of the Hursley 10K course for anyone that has done it. The course was a fairly hilly route, just over 5 miles long, with some very sticky clayey mud in places which proved very challenging. There were though some long down hills to let yourself go on.

Our first lady home was Hayley Coates in 38th place, with Jane Hodge in 40th and Sarah Fitton in 92nd. First chap home was Dan Latham in 25th, with Nick Jarvis in 33rd and Callum Johnson in 34th despite taking a tumble. Well done everyone I think we all found that a challenging one, great running across the board.

The next run is at New Forest Outdoor Learning Centre, Ridge Farm on 22nd June. A very local run for us, so come along everyone it's sure to be a good run.

See you next time,

Rob & Dan

The 3rd RR10 - Upper Hamble Country Park - Weds 18 May 2022

Dan reports,

Tonight's RR10 was at one of the favourite venues; Manor Farm Country park. The course was mainly on gravel tracks with the usual views of the River Hamble.

There were many regular runners on holiday this week, but Hardley still manage to turnout a good team.

First home for the ladies was Lisa Lewis in 84th place, followed by Jacqui Healey in 95th place with Lindsey McLennan third lady home in 108th place.

Making his debut RR10 run was Nick Jarvis first home for the club tonight in 36th position, followed by Simon Ibbotson in another very consistent 44th place, with Matt Tanner scoring highly in the M50's with a 75th place finish.

Well done all.

The next event is our own host event (which means no Hardley Runners can take part in this one). We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible on 1st June volunteering to marshal etc. See you then, Rob & Dan

HRRL Captain, Simon Ibbotson reports:

It was a warm and sunny day for the 8th race in this HRRL season. It was a small turnout with just five men and no ladies running for Hardley. First home was Dan Latham in a chip time of 1:06:24. I myself managed a 10 mile PB, which was quite surprising on this course!

The next race is the Netley 10K on the 15th May. I hope to see you there!

The Second RR10 - Itchen Valley Country Park - Star Wars Day

Click on the little picture to see great support.

Dan reports,

Tonight, was the 2nd round of the RR10 Trail Series at Itchen Valley Country Park, hosted by Lordshill Runners. The course was a wooded route, taking in twisty paths, a couple of bridges, one horrible hill 3 times and bluebells decorated the way throughout. There were 11 ladies and 11 men in force for Hardley this evening

Well done to Andrew Simpson and Linsey McLennan who completed their first RR10 and finished very respectably indeed, we hope you enjoyed it and to see you at the next one.

There were some big improvers this week; Mike Osbourne took of 15 places from last week's result, Mike Smith jumped up 14 places and Peter Haxton moved up 10 places.

First home for the ladies was Alice Rudd in a great 11th place, with Trish Patterson "taking it easy" in 20th and Hayley Coates in 58th.

The men were led home by Dan Latham in 27th his highest ever RR10 finish, followed by Carl Hall absolutely smashing the M50's with a 32nd place and Simon Ibbotson with a very consistent 39th place.

Another great team display with our runners finishing and cheering on their fellow team mates in - GREAT!!!

The next event is on 18th May at Manor Farm / River Hamble starting at 7pm, this is a brilliant course, we are very much looking forward to seeing you there!!

The First RR10 - Fleming Park - Weds 20 April 2022

Click on the little picture to see the team photo.

Dan reports,

Tonight, saw the return of the RR10 trail run series and the first event was organised by Totton Runners and Southampton AC, at Fleming Park, Eastleigh. The course was similar to previous years going up and down the banks of the old gold course, the weather was perfect, a sunny start but not too warm. There was a good club turnout for the first event with 6 ladies and 18 men, though we're sure these numbers will pick up with many on holiday and some saving themselves for big races this weekend.

Bringing the ladies home was Hayley Coates in 42nd position with Jane Hodge right on her tail in 43rd, this will be a very high finish in the F60's for Jane well done. 3rd lady was Lisa Lewis in 85th place. We were also most pround to have our first ever F80 participant complete an RR10, well done to Annie Bruce-low, an inspiration to us all.

Our first chap back was Callum Johnson casually making his way round the course in a brilliant 18th place, Simon Ibbotson pipped me on the finish line like a good sport in 39th place and I (Dan Latham) finished in 40th. Looking in the age placings Paul Blundell ran well to finish in a great 83rd position in the V50s and Mick Anglim finished high up in the V70's in 162nd. Unfortunately Paul Newby suffered a calf strain and could not complete, we hope he makes a steady recovery.

It was a good night everyone was in good spirits and we cheered home most of our runners certainly our final finishers got a big old cheer tonight, well done team!!

The next run is at Itchen Valley Country Park on 4th May 7pm, this is a great course for those that have not yet run here. See you all there, smashing running tonight everyone!!

The 8th (yes 8th) CC6 - Fleming Park - Sunday 27 March 2022

Click on the little picture to see the team photo. Matt reports,

Firstly, Happy Mothers' Day to all the mums at the club.

Today, was the eighth round of the CC6 series at Fleming Park where Eastleigh, Itchen Spitfires and Hedge End hosted the event. It was beautiful sunny morning. The course started on the main field near to the park, we ran past the leisure centre before crossing a bridge. Then it was 3 laps of field which zigzagged up the hill before a short downhill. After the 3 laps it was back across the bridge and run out on the main field back past the leisure centre and towards the park.

In the Women’s team we had Trish Paterson leading Hardley home in an impressive 9th place. Vicki Clarke was the next #773cb2 vest over the line in a great 28th place and rounding out the team was Sarah Fitton in an incredible 50th place.

The men’s team saw Carl Hall home first in an amazing 19th place. Matt Casey made finished in 32nd place. Next in was Mike Osborne in 72nd place which is a massive 40 place improvement from the last round Mike ran in. Rounding out the men's team was Mike Smith who finished in a great 78th place.

Well done to Rob Wells (95th) and Peter Hackston (96th) for both getting in the top 100.

It wasn’t the usual turn out for Hardley this time but we think that is due to a few people out with sickness and Mothers' Day; we had 6 men and 3 women.

Hardley results are below. The full results will be on the CC6 website (see Links tab above) the day after the race.

That's it for the CC6 season. Well done to everyone who took part. Not long to wait now for the first RR10.

Chris Harris reports,

Click on the little picture to see the big one.

Apologies this is a little late!

But the Eastleigh 10 K does deserve a mention. On this splendid Sunny Spring Day Hardley Runners did make their mark with at least 13 runners. Understandably among 3,000 runners our folk were difficult to find!

It really was an upbeat event with a constant cheerful conversation about the history of this event & all runners as they sprinted over the finishing line. So many celebrating P.Bs!

This was a perfect day for fun & Friendship!

The 7th CC6 - Badger Farm - Sunday 6 March 2022

Click on the little pictures to see the full size versions.

Matt reports,

Today, was the seventh round of the CC6 series at Badgers Farm where Winchester AC, Southampton AC and the Running Sisters hosted the event. It was sunny morning with a chilly breeze. The course started halfway down the grass field which firstly headed up the hill before doing a small lap of the top field then back up and over the bridge. Then there was a long downhill along a muddy path before heading up a steep (ish) climb up a muddy path with tree roots everywhere. Then along a gravel track that had a slight uphill feel before heading into a field that was surprisingly dry underfoot. Once out of the field a short tarmac section then back into the field we started in. we headed all the way down the left side, which had a slight camber in places making it a little awkward before turning round at the very bottom and heading all the way back up (roughly 1km) the hill wasn’t too steep but felt like it went on forever. A brilliant course as always, a big well done to the host clubs .

1st place alert!! Poppy Tanner leading Hardley home in 1st place, which is the highest finish for any Hardley member this season. Alice Rudd was only a few meters behind in a superb 2nd and rounding out the team was Chris Harris in an incredible 52nd place, a huge 18 place improvement from the last round.

The men’s team also had a good result with Nick Jarvis being yet again the first Hardley home in a strong 11th place, which is an 11 place improvement from the last round. Matt James made it to his first CC6 in 2 years and finished in a brilliant 20th place, Carl Hall with yet again an impressive position of 27th and probably another V50 win. Simon Ibbotson rounding out the men’s team in 33rd place which is a 4 place improvement from the last round.

We had some huge place improvements that are worth mentioning – Andy Farrow-Thomas 88th (24 place improvement). Sarah Hall 65th (19 place improvement). Hilary Hinks 66th (19 place improvement) Emma Farrow-Thomas 57th (18 place improvement). We also had the return of Mike Sleath 122nd and Jeremy Barber 124th. Steve Jarvis also making his CC6 debut and managing to get inside the top 100 in 99th place.

It was a great turn out for Hardley yet again with 11 men and 6 women.

The last CC6 event of the series is on the 27th March 2022 at Fleming Park which will be hosted by Eastleigh, Itchen Spitfires and Hedge end and will have the standard 9:30 start time.

The 6th CC6 - Ocknell - Sunday 13 February 2022

Matt reports,

Today, was the Sixth round of the CC6 series at Ocknell Campsite where Totton were the hosts. It was cloudy and windy morning with the rain coming in just after the race finished. The course started and finished on concrete road and a gravel track loop in-between. Similar to the last event the start was downhill making it a quick start but that also meant the finish was back up the hill which made for a tough finish for the runners but was great to watch as a spectator.

The ladies team had another great performance with Poppy Tanner leading Hardley home in 3rd place. Alice Rudd was in hot pursuit finishing in 4th and rounding out the team was Stephanie Warne in a superb 18th place which is a massive 12 place improvement from the last round. The men’s team also had a good result with Nick Jarvis making his CC6 debut and being the first Hardley home in a strong 22nd place. The second male Hardley in was Carl Hall in 31st, Simon Ibbotson in 37th and finishing the men’s team was Phil Rudd in 49th which is a huge 27 place improvement from the last round, great running Phil.

We had 3 CC6 debutants Nick Jarvis (22nd), Andy Farrow-Thomas (112th) and Emma Farrow-Thomas (75th), great running from all of them and we hope to see them at the final 2 rounds.

It was a great turn out for Hardley yet again with 12 men and 9 women.

The next CC6 is on the 6th March 2022 at Badgers Farm which will be hosted by Winchester, Southampton AC, Running Sisters and will have the standard 9:30 start time.

HRRL Race 6 - The Ryde 10 - Sunday 6 February 2022

Click on the medal to see the team.

HRRL Captain, Simon Ibbotson, reports,

Sunday 6th Feb saw the 6th race of the HRRL season - the Ryde 10 mile. It made for a fun day out on the island, as usual. The weather was pretty bad early on but it cheered up for the race and was dry and sunny for the start.

I'm not going to pretend it is a flat course but the hills are nicely spaced allowing for recovery between them. There's also some really nice scenery and views across the Solent. I really recommend giving this race a go if you haven't before.

Six of us started and unfortunately only 5 finished, as Dan Latham pulled out half way with a hamstring issue. Callum Johnson was our first male back in a chip time of 1:08:07 and Poppy Tanner was our only female, chip time 1:10:24.

Callum Johnson, Callum Tanner, Matt Tanner and myself made up our men's team and unfortunately we didn't have a ladies team. Overall our men's and ladies' teams are now 4th in division 2.

I hope you can make the next HRRL race which will be the Salisbury 10 mile on the 3rd April.

The 5th CC6 - Roundhills Campsite - Sunday 30 January 2022

Click on the thumbnail to see the big picture

Matt reports,

Today, was the fifth round of the CC6 series at Roundhills Campsite where Romsey, Halterworth & Southampton Tri were the hosts. The day started out being a chilly one but once the sun came out it turned into a gorgeous day for cross country racing. The course was 4.5 miles or 7.2km, it was another new course to the CC6 that everyone enjoyed (apart from the last hill). The course was 90% gravel track with a short section of grass and mud for good measure. The start was downhill making it a quick start before heading over a rail crossing from this point it was quite flat with a few undulations before heading back up the hill we started at the top off which made for a brutal finish that really pushed everyone to dig deep. Overall, another brilliant course a big well done to the host clubs.

Another strong ladies team performance Natalie Green was the first Hardley member over the line in an impressive 2nd place. Next in was Alice Rudd finishing in a fantastic 6th place and Poppy Tanner rounding out the ladies team with a great 12th place finish. The men’s team also had a great result with Chris Harris yet again leading Hardley home finishing in an incredible 4th place. The second male Hardley member home was Mark Clothier in 10th which is a 9 place improvement from the last round and breaking into the top 10, Dan Latham with a strong 18th place finish even while carrying an injury and not being able to train recently. The men’s team was rounded out by Matt Casey who broke into the top 20 for the first-time finishing 19th place.

We had a few CC6 debuts with Stephanie Warne finishing in a great 30th place, Hayley Coates finishing in a strong 43rd place and Jamie Davies finishing in brilliant 62nd Place. All great results for first appearances against a strong field of runners.

Great work everyone it was a great turn out for Hardley yet again with 15 men and 11 women.

The next CC6 is on the 13th February 2022 at Kings Garn, Ocknell Campsite which will be hosted by Totton and will have the standard 9:30 start time.

Here's a lovely album from Hammy .

Romsey 5 mile - 24 January 2022

Chris Harris reports,

The conditions were perfect for the Romsey 5-mile event yesterday. As many are aware this race is held in the extensive grounds of Broadlands, a completely flat ( traffic free ) course. Ideal for spectators as the runners complete their laps, pulled along by the uplifting music at various points.

Hardley Runners had an excellent turnout, far more than 2020.

Our first man home was Carl Hall: 31:59, followed by Peter Pimentel: 36:46, Malc Renyard: 42:00.

The first lady was Meghan Claridge 43:10 P.B, followed by Chris Harris: 47: 08, Hilary Hinks: 51:11, Sarah Hall: 54:00, Ann Maylot 1:08:54 and Annie Bruce-Low 1:19:18

Well Done Everyone!

Chris

HRRL Race 5 - The Stubbington 10K - Sunday 16 January 2022

Here's a photo album of our runners in action

Simon reports:

The 5th Hampshire Road Race League (HRRL) race for 2021/22 was the Stubbington 10km. This is another quick course and known for setting PBs. It was a lovely morning for running - cool, dry and calm.

23 of us crossed the line for Hardley with Mark Clothier (his first 10K!) and Alice Rudd being the first male and female, setting blistering chip times of 36:55 (PB) and 39:19. There were also PBs from Poppy Tanner (first time sub-40 mins), Grace Hawker & Jo Avery. Our female team came in 9th place (out of 29 teams) and male team 11th (out of 30 teams). Very well done to everyone that took part!

Our ladies' A team are currently third in division two and men's A team are fourth in division two.

The next race is the Ryde 10 mile on 6th February. It is full but transfers are still possible until the 31st January and there are a couple of spaces left in the two cars that the club has paid the ferry crossing for. We could do with more ladies as we do not have enough for a team as it stands.

CC6 Race 4 - Holmsley - Sunday 9 January 2022

Click on the little picture to see the team photo.

Matt reports

Today, was the fourth round of the CC6 series at Holmsley Campsite where New Forest Runners, Lymington Athletes and Lymington Tri Club were the hosts. It was a chilly morning as shown by the number of layers everyone has on in the team photo. The course was 4.91 miles or 7.9km, it was a new course and it did not disappoint. Starting on a grass field with a slight uphill made it a challenging start with getting grip up the hill before funnelling into a track that was 3 people wide with plenty of puddles and mud. We then headed into the enclosure which was mainly gravel with a few muddy tracks thrown in for good measure. There were a few hills on the way round nothing team Hardley couldn’t handle with all the hill training we do in the week before heading out onto a flat grass area for around 400m to the finish. The grass area was wet which again made grip an issue especially for those opting for road shoes. Overall, a brilliant course that everyone really enjoyed; great work host clubs.

A brilliant result for the ladies team with all three runners finishing in the top 10, Poppy Tanner was the first Hardley member over the line in 7th place. Natalie Green finishing in 8th place which is incredible considering Natalie ran at the Hampshire cross country championships yesterday, which was a serious mud fest I am told. Alice Rudd was in hot pursuit finishing in 9th. The ladies team could yet again be in contention for winning the round, great work Ladies. The men’s team also had a great result with Chris Harris finishing in the top 3 with an impressive 3rd place finish which is amazing after Chris ran Hampshire cross country championships yesterday along with Mick Anglim (127th), Paddy Butler (70th), Second male Hardley member home was Dan Latham in 18th, Mark Clothier making his CC6 debut finishing in a strong 19th place and Carl Hall rounding off the men’s team with an amazing 25th place finish. Superb work guys I’m sure that will be a great team finish for Hardley. It was great to see the return of Hannah Cockle who finished in a strong 35th place and Roy Van Hal who brought it home in 158th.

Great work everyone it was a great turn out for Hardley yet again let’s keep it up on the next event. After 3 rounds the ladies team are currently 3rd and the men’s team are in 4th, after the great team results today it will be interesting to see if we improve.

The next CC6 is on the 30th January 2022 at Roundhill’s which is hosted by Romsey, Halterworth & Southampton Tri and will have the standard 9:30 start time.

Hardley Runners' results are below. The full results will be on the CC6 website (see Links tab above) the day after the race.
