Track buddies...

City Schools XC Champion.
Nicely done,

This weekend saw Chris and Harvey take on the Round Sheffield Run. A quirky stage race taking in lots of the parks Sheffield has to offer.

The boys did good taking 2 minutes off the record they set lasted year and getting the overall win in the process.
A good morning on the trails.

Big props to and for making them look this cool 😎

Now that the dust has settled after a triumph in Northumberland, the rest of Team Accelerate have put their thoughts together and written a little summary of their own weekend. Spoiler, there's some funny interpretations!!

Go check it out in the link in bio.

The boys brought it home in Wooler.
Chris, Will and Jonah took a clean sweep of the podium. They battled it out on the hilly and muddy course with Chris running away from the rest in a strong showing of his fitness and strength on the trails. Closely followed by Will in second and Jonah showing his versatility in third.
Now for some much need recovery.

Local Legend Dot was back out racing again but this time on the trails!! 

After overcoming a injury that kept her sidelined for a few weeks, Dot focussed on getting stronger to come back better than ever. Dot entered the Steel City Trail 10, Parkwood Springs and absolutely smashed it, being the first women back with a time of 55:06 

Keep pushing on Dot!! 

                                                     

A finishing time of 35:59 for at this morning’s Sheffield 10k, dipping under the 36 minute barrier for the first time on a hilly course 🏃

Here he is in the home straight, representing and

The lap?
Completed it mate!

Last weekend Matt and Chris headed to the Lake District to take on the 47 mile lap of lake Windermere.

They went with the goal of getting round in one piece, big tick there.
Well done, onto the next one.

Sun's out guns out!
Morning session for Hugh with Coach Stu. Hugh is still in the process of going through a rehab plan following a ni**le back which turned out to be a hip problem.
As always back to basics, working through movement and technique.
So far so good.
Next stop a to see Oliver at the clinic. Massage, mobility and assisted stretching are on the menu.

Keep up the good work Hugh, you'll be back soon enough.

A week last Sunday was a rather good day for .
Matt took on the Great Welsh Marathon. Knocking 7 minutes off his PB making for a great day of racing.
Well done Matt!
Now turning his focus off the road and to the longer stuff.

Busy weekend on deck for the team.

Paddy and Matt started the weekend off racing at the Derbyshire Cross Country championships. This is the first time they have both put on spikes in over a year, so it was certainly a baptism of fire. They both ran a strong race, showing all the winter Mike's are paying off.

Chris and Harvey closed out the weekend at Round Sheffield Run. A time staged race with plenty of hills thrown in. They ran a solid race and managed to take the mens pair win, setting a winter course record in the process. They even post the second fast time of the day.

A good weekend all round. Back to the grind tomorrow.
