On Sunday eight club members went to Stratford to run in the annual nine mile road race called ‘The Roman 9’. This race has been run for many years and always attracts a large number of runners. The course starts at the Sports Ground on Loxley Lane and proceeds towards Loxley via Alveston Hill and the Banbury Road until the left turn towards Loxley where it goes up the steep hill in Blue Lane after which it soon reaches Loxley through which it passes to rejoin Loxley Lane and back to the start.

Roger Wilkes who finished in a fine 68 minutes and 38 seconds which was an improvement of 21 seconds on last years effort and very creditable seeing that he also ran in the previous days cross country.

27/01/02 Winter League Race 5 - Honiley Hoof

On Sunday morning 13 members of Kenilworth Runners and 12 very welcome visitors from Leamington took part in the 5th race of the Club’s Winter Handicap Series.

This race is known to members as ’The Honiley Hoof’ and is 3.5 miles long. The race started opposite the Honiley Hotel and proceeded along the lane to Beausale then turned right to Haseley Knob, right again to Clattyland Wood and right towards Beausale and so left back to the start. Tim Payne continues to dominate the Winter League and his fine run took him ten points ahead of his challenger Mick Morris. With only five races to count in the League he will be very difficult to catch in the remaining three races. Our visitor Richard Grundy produced the best run of the day with a splendid time of 21 minutes and 59 seconds closely followed by Club member Robb Carr who took the maximum 50 points with an excellent run in 22 minutes 4 seconds beating his predicted time by a massive 1 minute and 18 seconds.
