Once again, although the field was small, there were some good performances. Well done to Jose,winning his 3rd race in succession , to Fran racing for the first time, and Emma setting a new pb on the course. The final race of the series is this Friday.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sunday run location this week was Boston,starting at The Hive. Jose, Dennis, Geoff J and Fran were up for it. The route consisted of heading up to Langrick Bridge and then onto the cycle path to Boston. Jose and Dennis broke off at Anton Gowt to do a couple of miles extra, while Geoff and Fran headed to the bridge and back to the Hive on the other side of the bank, to run approx 10 miles. Jose and Dennis totaled around 12 miles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It was a longer Tuesday session than normal, with Dennis, Geoff J, Emma, Ken and Di again running the route we did on Sunday. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Training continues on Tuesday at 7pm through the winter at The B Hive, consisting usually of a steady run of around 6 miles. All ages and abilities welcome.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thursdays we meet at Focus( soon to be B and Q!) carpark at 7pm, again for a run of around 6/7 miles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This Sunday is our Six/ Twelve hour/ 100k race at Witham Park, Boston. Start time is 7.30 am and help/ support is always appreciated.

Once again, although our squad is not huge compared to other teams in our division, such as Doncaster, Sheffield and Chesterfield, all our athletes gave their all. Great performances on the Track was matched by superb encouragement from the stands. We finished 2nd on the day and 3rd overall, and so secure our place in the division for next year. Congratulations to all the athletes, officials, coaches, supporters and family members present. You did us all proud!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Friday sees the next Friday Five. The start of the race is at 7pm and entry is only £5. Will anybody challenge our 'King of the Fives', Jose Ferreira, who set the course record on the last Five? Support is always welcome even if you don't want to run.

type='text'>London Marathon Places 2011</title><content type='html'>The club always recieves several places for the London Marathon.Recently we have been awarded as many as 4 club places,however,this year have only been awarded one.The places are allocated to athletes after discussion by the club committee and take into account such things as turn out at training and races and the general amount of work put in/help given to the club.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  This years place has been awarded to Tony Tomblin.Well done!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  To my knowledge that brings the total number of Boston A.C athletes who will be competing to 4- David Johnson,Bob Shaw,Dennis Rainbow and Tony Tomblin.All athletes will be delighted to recieve sponsorship for their run,the money which goes directly to the club.If anyone wants to help please contact the individuals or Dennis at training or races.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

type='text'>Boston 'Poppy Run'.</title><content type='html'>Well-what a day!After some terrible weather this last week,we were truely blessed with great weather this morning.The morning was cold,but the day clear and bright,with virtually no wind.&lt;br /&gt;   The club had a good turnout of road runners and it was our own Jose Ferreira who was first to cross the line.As you all know Jose puts a tremendous amount of time into helping the club,is an ever present in races throughout the year-on the road,country and on the Track(his 800m sprint start will go down in club history!),and since coming under the wing of our head coach,Peter Arnott,just continues to improve with every race.Well done Jose!&lt;br /&gt;    Boston runner,Shaun North,whose strong running is always appreciated by the club came a good second,followed our young thoroughbred,Aidan McClure in 4th.These 3 athletes dominated the team race.Well done lads!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   The Ladies section is going from strenght to strenght at the minute.Alice Flint was second junior/senior lady,with another performance which typifies her never say die attitude.Emma Penistone was 3rd junior/senior lady.Emma always gives her all,both in training and racing,and her attitude is an example to all the younger athletes in the club.This was the second hard race in as many days for Emma,as she ,together with Aidan McClure and Dennis Rainbow,paraded the club colours at the North Midland League Cross Country at Wickstead Park,Kettering,the day before and it was fitting to see her walk off with an individual trophy.Diane Gill was the 3rd member of the winning ladies team,as well as carrying off a trophy in the Ladies vet 40 category.Di joined us in the summer and is already a valued member of our 'road running gang'(not just saying that to get free eggs,Di!!).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    Of course it is not just the athletes at the front of the pack who make the club,but everybody as a whole.Well done,and thankyou,to all the rest of our athletes who competed in the 5.4 mile road race and The Fun run.Also for all the invaluable help by everyone involved in the initial organisation of this event and for everyone involved on the day responsible for such things as refreshments,time keeping,marshalling,results and the setting up/taking down of the course.Thankyou.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br

type='text'>THE East COAST Classic 10k</title><content type='html'>A bright sunny day and a beautifully calm high tide met the runners at the start of the East Coast Classic 10k at Mablethorpe.Two Boston athletes were competing.In the fierce inter club(but very friendly!) rivalry between the young gun,Aidan McClure and the old dog,Dennis Rainbow,it was Aidan who this time won the battle!Aidan finished in a great 7th position,finishing well ahead of his nearest rivals his age,in a time of 38 mins 40 secs.Dennis was 8th,trying vainly to catch Aidan in the final couple of kms-but failing-in a time of 38 mins 53 seconds.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt; Next week sees a break from competition before the West Pinchbeck 10 k the week after.Ideas have been suggested for a group run somewhere

tops'who made the journey to the small village,just outside of Sleaford ,this year.The course had been changed this year,incorporating more fields and trails,and the large amount of rainfall experienced the day before the race,had made the condition of the course-especially in the final 3k-extremely challenging.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   First Boston athlete home was Dennis Rainbow in 10th position,in a time of 41mins 36 seconds,followed by Aidan McClure,comfortably finishing as first Under 20 year old in 15th position in 42mins 29 seconds.Tony Tomblin made his customary late appearance just before the start to finish in 77th position in a time of 52 mins 39 seconds.With work committments meaning Tony is currently working 7 days a week and ,once again,had put in several hours of work the actual morning of the race,his dedication continues to inspire the rest of our road runners.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   Diane Gill (Di-Hard-as she is now known at the club!)was making her competitive debut for the club,having recently moved into the area.Di finished in 108th position,well up among the female finishers,in a time of 56 minutes 21 seconds.&lt;div

/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;       Saturday 7th August saw the first running of The RNLI Summer Sprint 10k on Skegness Beach.As we use this particular stretch on training runs regularly,several members were keen to give it a go.The course started on the beach just down from the lifeboat station and headed towards the pier and on towards North Shore Golf Course.The race consisted of 2 laps of a 5km course-the first part around and just beyond the pier on soft sand,before runners dropped towards the harder sand at the waters edge.A strong wind was blowing towards the north,presenting the runners with a challenging return leg on each of the two laps.&lt;br /&gt;       &lt;br /&gt;        Boston and District A.C had four runners present.Jose Ferreira lead from gun to tape,never threatened by the competition to record his first victory of the year,in a time just under 40 minutes-an excellent time,considering the difficult conditions.Dennis Rainbow was next member in ,in 3rd place,followed by Aidan McClure in 7th.Geoff Johnson made a welcome return to competition-his 10th position reflecting his rapid return to race fitness.All in all,an excellent team performance by the 'Gold Tops'.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'
