London Heathside

[Paul Lemmon]

Heathside’s men’s track & field teams had their penultimate league matches of the season on Saturday afternoon. The A team put in a strong performance with the star being Ed with a big PB in the 5000 Metres despite the extremely hot conditions. Julian backed him up ably to get us our 2nd best result of the day, beaten only by the excellent double 1st in the Triple Jump from Nathan & Reg. A couple of slip ups + my absence at a wedding leaving us with only 1 Steeplechaser led to us being narrowly beaten into 4th however. We still gain a place to 22nd in the league, but with 20th our best possible finishing position now it looks certain that we will be relegated unless some sort of reorganization saves us. The B team found themselves in a very tough match but competed well all round and did enough to stay 3rd from bottom in their division so, if only 2 go down (as we hope) then they have a good chance of survival. Results from these matches and of other races as follows:
