We had a great time at today's navigation event. First real test of a thumb compass, it is proved it's worth. Thanks to AMC and Ian for organising.

The primary league track and field dates are 25th April,9th may,6th June, and the medal meet is 4th July. £5 fee for all 4 events. They are held fridays about 6pm until 8pm.All 4 events are at wigan harriers track. It is for children in years 3 to 6 at primary school and is great for those too young to do the mid lancs(11+). I have entry forms so see me either Monday or Thursday night at training. Thanks to Jan Mayor for the info .

I'm guessing the results from last nights Blackpool interclub aren't published yet anyway but is there one reliable source for most race results that everyone uses??
Thanks

If you’re interested in these swim sessions, please will you contact Jonathon Grundy on grundyjonathan@gmail.com, instead of the Chorley tri contact given in the previous email as she’s away and any emails sent to her won’t be received in time.

The trail races that were on Wednesday and Friday have been combined into one night (junior and senior races). The Junior course was new last year, and the senior course is the same as run on the Wednesday night.

The trail races are these the ones which were on a Friday night, if not were will registration be.

May I stress to parents/guardians the important of both taking your child into the session (and not just dropping them off in the car park) and collecting them from the session and not just expecting them to leave the training venue and go to the car park on their own. This is stated in the Code of Conduct for Parents/Guardians. It is also essential to be on time for both the start and end of each session. Unfortunately, there have been a couple of incidents recently where this has not happened. We take the safety of the juniors very seriously and if you have any comments or concerns, please contact the welfare officer, Terry Dickenson on tdickenson@Tesco.net

Six juniors competed in the Wigan Open Track & Field Meet. U11's Daniel Lilley, Jessica Williams and Will Davis. U13's Kian Davis. U17's Holly Brookes and Ryan McCracken. For many of the athletes it was their first time competing in a track & field competition and there were some excellent strong performances by everyone. Daniel achieved 2nd in the 600m & 3rd in Long Jump, with Kian 3rd in the 1500m.

The Tri season kicked off with 3 athletes competing at the Carr Hill Sprint Triathlon in Kirkham. The event consists of a 400m pool swim 24k bike and 6.4k run.
Kona bound triathlete Joe Duckworth claimed a superb first home in 1hr:11:45 with not too far behind Jonathon Mann claiming 5th in 1:14:46.
John Baron was also on for a great race but was sadly misdirected by a run marshal and only completed 1 lap of the run.

Well done to the 6 juniors who attended the Wigan Track & Field event today. U11 Daniel Lilley, Will Davis & Jessica Williams. U13 Kian Davis. U17 Holly Brookes & Ryan McCracken. Many excellent performances throughout the day. For some it was their first time competing in Track & Field.
For any athlete in year 6 and above, the first of the Mid~Lancs Track & Field events takes place at Wigan on Saturday 26 April. We need as many athletes competing as possible to earn points for the Chorley team. Thank you.

15 junior athletes from Chorley turned out today for their first aquathlon
of the season, and for many, their first event of this kind.
Aquathlons are part of the triathlon series, and consists of swim, and
transition straight into a run, finishing on the athletics track. Distances
depend on age and category.
They all did amazingly well, supported and cheered each other on and had
smiles on their faces throughout. A brilliant day was had by all. A proud
bunch of mums (and dads) on Mothers Day.
The event was hosted by City of Lancaster Triathlon Club (COLT) and
Carnforth Otters ASA and held at Salt Ayre Sports Centre in Lancaster.

Did anyone else spot the mistake in the Junior fell message. Despite both of us just having our eyes tested neither Ian nor myself spotted January - of course it is March. Still waiting for glasses to arrive!
