Junior Knole Improvement

Huge congratulations to the 11 harfy year 7s and 8s who ran the prestigious Junior Knole run last friday to record the best result at the event for 3 years.
the A Team finished in 14th place, which considering it is the national event for their age group bodes very well for the future. The 2.1 mile course is on soft ground with a dangerously packed start and 2 big hills to overcome.
Well done to all

Success at Lancing College

Saturday 10th November saw the JFS SC Team head to the south coast for the annual fixture vs Brighton College, Charterhouse, Ardingly, Harrow, Lancing, & Sevenoaks

This is a great fixture in great surroundings

All the runners start above the school on a muddy field and run up a very steep slope to a track, the U16s then turn left for a downhill route of 2.8 miles, the Seniors turn left for a really challenging (the hardest race of the year - J.Jones) 5.8 miles route that takes in 3 hills, two of which are ridiculous and a varied terrain.

Luckily the weather held off and it was a crisp day and not too soft underfoot considering the mud baths of previous years.

 U16 2.8 miles              

  2. Nkamuo  16.41  (18.26 - 2017) 

  3. Roberts  16.45

TEAM  2^nd  ( 11 teams)

Fantastic results all round. Special mention to Ebuka who smashed his previous time to finish 2nd. Joe Roberts once again showed his development as a runner of repute to finish 3rd. Matt Conway took a minute off his previous time and Paul Hewitt destroyed his previous time!. Both Fabian and Emmanuel improved and well done to Kalle and Dawid for their first time on this course

The Seniors were fantastic, Freddy showing his undoubted potential in 3rd place and first JFS finisher but Gianluca also running a top race and beating his previous best. Special mention to Ben Brant who took a barely credible 6 and 1/2 minutes of his time from last year.

Also mention to Mr Fell who also improved on his previous time from 2015 to finish in 48.40!

  

Park Run

Saturday 3rd November saw JFS runners compete at the Roundshaw Parkrun. With club runs on the same day and a couple of runners retiring from the race mid-way through it was depleted numbers, but still very beneficial to the boys. Well done to Matt and Paul for their PBs!

Ben Brant 20.20 (Riddlesdown)

Ebuka Nkamuo  20.23

Matt Conway 20.45  NEW PB!

Paul Hewitt 21.51 NEW PB!

Emmanuel Victor 23.11

Philip Motyl 24.43

Jack Hession 24.45

Christiano Piccirilio 24.47

Charlie Kitchen 25.55

Jacob Horle 29.10

HASKELL CUP CHALLENGE

This annual relay event with 1.7 mile legs is an enjoyable one, and in the past we have had some success. Knowing that all of the 'big guns' compete the challenge was to improve on personal times and finish as close to last years 5th place as possible.

Several younger runners were also selected to give them the experience of a highly competitive senior event.

All the runners acquitted themselves brilliantly

The A team finished in 7th place overall and their times are as follows

Gianluca Ercolano      11.14  (2017: 11.50)
Jacob Jones                 12.10 (12.01)
Freddy Georgiou         11.51  (12.02)
Robbie Tambling         11.54

The B Team finished as the 8th B Team which was a great result, with younger runners as well

Malachi Messette       12.52  (13.16)

Ebuka Nkuamo           13.16  

Alfie Smith                 13.12  (12.28)

Harry Smith                12.48  (12.01)

Matt Conway and Zack Johnson-Alleyne also ran as an incomplete C Team, and both ran great times

Matt Conway                 13.28

Zack Johnson-Alleyne   13.25

Well done to all who ran!!
