Surrey Walking Club/ Blackheath & Bromley HAC 3km Track Walking Championships, Norman Park  7th Jul 10

The field for this joint Surrey Walking Club/Blackheath and Bromley HAC championship was rather smaller than usual than of recent years but with visitors was not insignificant with the field fairly evenly spread giving everyone someone to chase. Once again Roger Michell traveled from Shropshire to lead the field from the off. Although challenged by visitor Steve Allen (Barnet) towards the end Roger was able to keep comfortably clear to the tape. An annual best for Mick Harran gave him an emphatic 2nd place in the SWC event. It was a sunny but humid evening and this may account for slowish times for the last four in the field while the front half all recorded improvements.
