In the East Midlands we have a junior squad of athletes, EMJOS. The Junior Regional Squads (JROS) are the base level where the aspiring young athletes start to develop their skills and running ability, so as to attend the summer camps.

The summer camps are subsidised by JROS – Llaganlia (M/W14), Deeside (M/W15-16), Stockholm (M/W16 – 18) and Goteborg (M/W18+), bringing together juniors to train on superb terrain with top coaches, and also bond as a friendship group.

So to raise funds JROS have created a set of 8 Christmas cards for £3.

I shall be attending the JROS AGM Saturday 10th Nov (2 weeks away), so can pick up early orders from Keith Marsden.

Email me directly () by Friday 9th Nov.

Thanks – Ann-Marie Duckworth – EMJOS coordinator and DVO member.

The results for “First Across the line” are here and for fastest runners here
Michelle Mackervoy would have been first across the line so takes the Judy Buckley trophy, then Ben O’Donnell who takes the Lithuanian trophy and Paul Addison takes the Chris Yardley trophy. Michelle was also the fastest woman so the Karen Jackson trophy goes to Rachel Duckworth as next fastest and Richard Parkin was the fastest man just ahead of Paul. No-one actually beat their target time; even Michelle was nearly 4 minutes over, so probably indicative that we all found it a tough competition. Note that the target times were calculated to one tenth of a second so there is a rounding for the difference.

Presentations on Saturday at Alfreton after the event.
