<br />
The event, which was organised in conjunction with local Police Community Support Officers, was attended by 169 runners from all over London, and covered by the Evening Standard. <br />
<br />
PRC was represented by Nick, Martin, Sarah and Liz (pictured below, L-R), with Nick and Martin heading off in the "faster" group and Liz and Sarah modestly opting to start in the "less fast" group.<br />
<br />
Special congratulations go to Nick, who impressed by storming home in the top 10. Speaking afterwards, Nick said, "I think I was in the top 10, or maybe 5 or something." <br />
<br />
The event raised over £1300 in total.<br />

<span style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Jo is running the <span style="font-size: medium;">London Marathon</span> on 17th April, along with Vice President Martin (and 35 000 others, of course), and she is only <span style="font-size: medium;">the second female MP</span> ever to do so. Jo is raising funds for Lukaemia and Lymphoma Research, and we wish her all the best - and then a well-earned rest afterwards!</span><br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">That happened pretty fast. </div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Some new club stats for you all:</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><u><strong>1. MEMBERSHIP: </strong></u><br />
<br />
We now have <strong>26 members</strong> on the books, of whom <strong>18 </strong>have attended at least 1 session. <br />
This includes staff from Labour, Conservative and the Lib Dems, as well as 3 House of Commons staff.<br />
<br />
<strong>7 </strong>new members have attended since Christmas.<br />
<br />
As we started with only 4 members last summer, this is excellent progress!<br />
<br />
<strong><u>2. MILAGE:</u> </strong><br />
Collectively as a club, we have run<strong> 399 miles</strong> since records began (last October that is, not the stone age). <br />
<br />
That is almost precisely the <strong>distance between London and Edinburgh</strong>!<br />
<br />
Good work, team.<br />
<br />
<u><strong>3. THOUGHT</strong></u><br />
<br />
Running thought of the day:<br />
Thought a long Running Club session was a big challenge?<br />
<br />
Try the <strong><a href="http://www.spartathlon.gr/main.php">SPARTATHLON..</a> 153 miles</strong> long, based on Herodotus' description of the route taken by Pheidippides when he ran from Athens to Sparta seeking reinforcements for the impending Battle of Marathon.. which as we know, was the birthplace of another famous race. <br />
<br />
The course record is 20hours 25minutes.Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01372962974958493634noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4109928498250945671.post-37942612122024332932011-02-21T03:37:00.000-08:002011-02-21T06:10:19.990-08:00PRC takes on Brighton - and wins!<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXYzB__P7OzzsSRqphVI8mTm6ylohbSNQYonXpw1E18JZJhrztFWOZYZL08kkmizvhG4sOpHhw3ml3UUS82MvsC9PCQkwDuNuBqfG6dlT3CnwG7RGdtjABNfKqns_ZUw8z9cLg4hp1JG7Z/s1600/Martin+Leay+Brighton+half+marathon+before+start+%25282%2529.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="149" j6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXYzB__P7OzzsSRqphVI8mTm6ylohbSNQYonXpw1E18JZJhrztFWOZYZL08kkmizvhG4sOpHhw3ml3UUS82MvsC9PCQkwDuNuBqfG6dlT3CnwG7RGdtjABNfKqns_ZUw8z9cLg4hp1JG7Z/s200/Martin+Leay+Brighton+half+marathon+before+start+%25282%2529.jpg" width="200" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-QSncYexZHzkPlGisnbhuDaiyYP3rfwIcMLK34YQYSSP_fqv5KnRtkIF-PIHXw-ojvPmKNzZMeki9nyCjK-qrMlIq3D-wFEtjjqcpfuIQC6Ec1UV_Bu2pHwG8iXn4mu7vpI63-s1Cqspx/s1600/PRC+Brighton+6.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="150" j6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-QSncYexZHzkPlGisnbhuDaiyYP3rfwIcMLK34YQYSSP_fqv5KnRtkIF-PIHXw-ojvPmKNzZMeki9nyCjK-qrMlIq3D-wFEtjjqcpfuIQC6Ec1UV_Bu2pHwG8iXn4mu7vpI63-s1Cqspx/s200/PRC+Brighton+6.jpg" width="200" /></a>Four members of Parliamentary Running Club completed the Brighton Half Marathon this weekend!

<br />
In total we had 11 runners including 2 new members - this means we now have 21 members on the books, of which 15 have been to at least 1 session. As we started out as 4 people last summer that is a growth rate of over 500% - maybe we should found our own economy next?<br />
<br />
Also the new T shirts have now been unveiled, as displayed by Chris here!<br />
Many thanks to Martin for sorting. We will now all look officially EVEN MORE fantastic than we already do!Lizhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01372962974958493634noreply@blogger.com0
