| Burnham Beeches Half Marathon 2009 |
The hilly course was made more difficult than normal by temperatures up to 26° and a stiff breeze when runners came on to the field at the end. Consequently times were a little slower than normal, although there were some good runs.

It’s that time of year again for the annual Jim Banks Challenge, a Dashers-only 5k handicap race twice round Home Park.
The important things first:
- it’s on Thursday September 3rd, with the first runner off at 1930
- it’s free to enter!
- there’s free fish-and-chips afterwards!
For those who know all about it, enter online here.
For those who don’t, read on…
The Jim Banks Handicap is a fun handicap 5k race that runs twice around the outside of Home Park. It’s a chance for the slower runners in the club to shine, and often produces a surprise winner!
Here’s how it works: the slowest runner goes off first, followed by the next slowest, etc, until eventually the fastest runner goes off last, over a lap (2.5k!) behind the slowest runners. The winner is the runner who crosses the line first!
In theory, if the handicapper has done a good job, everyone should finish at about the same time - in previous years we’ve had 40+ runners finish within 90s of each other!
Afterwards we decamp upstairs to the cricket-club bar for a drink and free fish-and-chips.
So now that you know all about it, you can enter online here!
Paul and Barbara report back from France:
A showery Saturday evening in Charente-Maritime didn’t put off nearly 500 runners who almost got a whole race without rain, only the later finishers got wet while running the rest of us got wet eating cake and sugar cubes. We had to wait for the prize giving as Philip upset Triathlon La Rochelle’s dominance of the children’s groups.
