NEWHAM & ESSEX BEAGLES, who were third in the Southern Six Stage at Aldershot were never out of the hunt in the Senior Men's National Six Stage race at Sutton Coldfield on the 17th of October and in fact after Dave Mitchinson , came 13th of the 95 starters in 13th place on leg One, they were never out of first place when Scotsman, Chris Mackay, took them into the lead in the latter part of stage 2. Mo Farah put the icing on the cake on stage 5 with the fastest lap of the day. However Belgrave repeated their Southern second place when their captain Neil Speaight took them from 5th to 2nd on the anchor leg and Southern Champions Aldershot & Farnham were up from 6th to 3rd, thanks to a sterling anchor leg by Ben Moreau (recent Wimbledon 10km winner)
Alastair Aitken talked to all the Newham & Essex Beagles team after they finished their legs for Running in London.

I met Andy Baddeley by chance on the 3rd of July 2009. He reminded me a bit of Dave Moorcroft, not just because he covered the same distances in racing but also, that he appeared to have a kind and helpful nature, which was something Dave Moorcroft certainly had in my experience of interviewing him many times writes Alastair Aitken.

I KNOW ROY FOWLER WAS NOT A SOUTHENER OR A LONDON MAN BUT HE WAS SO INSPIRATIONAL FOR ANY ATHLETE WHO WOULD LIKE TO HAVE SOMEONE TO LOOK UP TO AS A DISTANCE RUNNER, WITH HIS FANTASTIC COURAGE SO, I FELT MY OBIT ON HIM SHOULD BE SEEN BY THE PEOPLE WHO LOOK AT RUNNING IN LONDON. I AM SURE THE ATHLETICS WEBSITE 'KING' RICHARD XERRI WOULD AGREE, AS WOULD HIS RIVALS, SUCH GREAT RUNNERS FROM THE SOUTH WHO COMPETED AGAINST ROY, LIKE TIM JOHNSTON, who won the Inter-counties, Southern and British Universities in 1963 in the snow, plus outstanding cross country man GERRY NORTH .

It is not often you recognise someone from pictures in old scrapbooks, from 45 years ago but, that happened to me at Ewell Court on the 23rd of May. The name was JOHN SNOWDEN (who did 4:03.6 for the mile), who ran in GORDON PIRIE'S epic last international as an amateur at the White City Stadium IN 1961. said Alastair Aitken
