Race Report W/E 17 February
Well, it’s raining again after a balmy weekend that definitely felt more springlike than midwinter – a bonus for all those out racing. We had a fairly large Ful-on-Tri contingent out over the weekend. Fortunately, none of Saturday’s cycling mishaps seemed to have affected race entrants. In total there were 5 races going on. Most […]

Update & Reminder – Race Calendar
Thank you to everyone who has used and added to the Race Calendar so far, and for promptly asking for additional events to be added. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive so far. This post is in part a reminder that the Race Calendar is there (for those who have yet to view or add to […]

Race Report W/E 10 February
As Storm Erik blew headlong into the UK, it appears that Ful-on-Tri was handing out its own battering at this Saturday’s Cross Country races – both in terms of impressive results and in the sheer number of runners we managed to field. That wasn’t all either. In the Southern Hemisphere we also had a (rather […]

We now have a Race Calendar – with actual races in it – AND… drum roll… that you can add your name to, if you’re competing. Please spare 30 minutes over the next week or two (and definitely before the end of February) to do the following: Find the races you have already entered, […]

Race Report W/E 3 February
This morning’s walk through the rain was about as far removed from sunny, sandy Dubai as you could imagine – and Strava suggests that many of you reacted to the weekend’s weather by staying indoors and switching on the Turbo… or, more likely, the rugby. However, we did in fact have two races, and 6 […]

Race Results – 1 February (a rare pre-weekend post)
Just when you thought news couldn’t get even more fresh – here’s a Race Report published before the weekend. Now pick yourself up off the floor, grab a cuppa and calm down.

Race Results W/E 25th November, 2nd, 9th and 16th December
There has been a minor (ahem) hiatus in the race reports as the fixtures secretary was coming to terms with being in the workforce again, so strap yourself in as this is a long one (especially considering the time of year…our club has clearly forgotten what “off season” means). Let’s cast our eyes back to […]

Race Results w/e 11th and 18th November
Although it’s been a while, I haven’t forgotten the brilliant racing that has happened over the past couple of weeks. For starters, there was the second round of Surrey League Cross Country. On the Women’s side, a strong team of 15 showed up to race on a stunning Autumn morning in Nonsuch Park. Well done […]

And suddenly it’s November, the mince pies have hit the stores, coffee cups have turned wintry themed, and Ful-on Tri Christmas Party tickets are on sale (get yours now, especially if you think you’ve won an award, as you’ll get a cool cup to drink out of. Just ask Ruth or Nick how well that […]

Race Results w/e 28 October
That summer I was talking about last week has very clearly disappeared: it’s 100% bobble hat season (Ehem…). Racing, nevertheless, continues for the FoT gang across all sorts of disciplines. First up was Sarah Lewis at the ETU Middle Distance Champs in not-so-sunny Ibiza. Despite crazy wet and wild conditions, Sarah battled through to claim […]
