  Speaker 2: sit back and enjoy it. So it's a lot of
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: really is a folks and based sport show today. Well,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: we start with football. The long awaited return to Sheritan
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: Road by Folks in Victor took place on Saturday in
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: front of one thy three hundred and seventy nine fans
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: and it was a game that had everything. It had
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: a miss, penalty, ascending off and a ninety fifth minute goal.
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Opponents Dullage Hamlet went in one the other halftime, but
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: in Victor clawed their way back with two goals from
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Joe Piggott, the second one coming in the eighty ninth minute.
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: Earlier on, though, Dullage were awarded a penalty and unfortunately
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: Liam Smith protested too loudly and received a second yellow
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: and was subsequently sent off. However, the penalty ended up
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: in Morrison's card Park, much to the great relief from
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: the home supporters. So, with the score two to one
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: to focus them and just one minute of normal time
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: to go, the board went up showing five minutes of
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: time added on. Could ten many Victor hang on Well?
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: The answer was no, unfortunately, and Dulage equalized with almost
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: the last kick of the game in the ninety fifth minute.
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: But it was a great welcome home, it really was.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: The fans loved it. It was a nice afternoon and
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: it's been a long time coming, but that they are back.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: So on to Tuesday evening, the first league game under
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: lights this season against the Lewis. After Saturday's game, the
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: fans were hopeful to seeing Victor get three points, but
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: I don't believe anybody would have expected a six kneel victory.
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: Joe Piggott got the ball a roll in the first minute,
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: then Joel of Dinner had made it two nil fifteen
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: minutes later, so they went. They went in two nil
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: up at halftime. Now they were probably expecting a fight
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: back from Lewis in the second half, but it never
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: happened and if Victor hit another four goals, sending the
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: folks and fans home extremely happy. The crowd was a
• 4:30
  Speaker 2: good one for a Tuesday evening, nine hundred and forty
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: four in attendance. This Saturday is an away fixture against
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: Burgess Hill in the FA Trophy first Round, a match
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: that is worth three thousand pounds of the winners and
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventy five pounds of the losers.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: So moving on to hive.
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: Town now were they welcomed the peece Haven and Telscombe
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: from the Sussex County Premier League to Reach Fields in
• 4:52
  Speaker 2: a Favur's first round fixture in front of one hundred
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: and ninety three spectators and they won the match one
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: nil with an eighty seventh minute goal from Tommy adig Belugabe.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: In Monday's draw, they received a home tit against Burnham FC.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: And now this is going to be a tough one
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: because Burnham are currently top of the Combined County's Premier
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: League North and they will travel down from Slought in Buckinghamshire. Meanwhile,
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: on Tuesday evening it was back to league action when
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: they were away to Bearstead, the game ending in a
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: one nel victory for Bearstead. Sadly, the twenty fifth of
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: October is a return to Breech Fields with another home fixture,
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: this time against Tunbridge.
• 5:31
  Speaker 3: Wells in the league.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: So I'm going to move on to a bit of
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: more music now and we come back with some football
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: after this track. But now this is the track. This
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: is a famous track really and you all know why
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: it's famous because it was the first ever song played
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: on Radio One. It was way back in nineteen sixty seven.
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: I think it was the pirate era was over and
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: it was time to like for the Radio one to
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: pretend that they were a pirate station. And this was
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: the first ever song played on September thirtieth, nineteen sixty seven,
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: and this is Flowers in the Rain and the move.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Walked up one morning a sleep with ally blankets and.
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: Again and yellow roses scanned up round. The first song
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: ever played on Radio one. So it was the end
• 6:40
  Speaker 2: of the era for the pirate radio stations and the
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Tony Blackburn will he jump ship literally and ended up
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: on Radio one. Several of them did, but they didn't
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: have any auction, did they, as the government seemed to
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: be trying to dampen down the teenage music and it well,
• 6:58
  Speaker 2: they won in the end, didn't they. But that sort
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: of music from that era still still goes on. It's
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: really strong and loads of people love the old classic
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: gold stations now, So there you go, first song played
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: on Radio one as the Move and Flowers in the Rain. Okay,
• 7:16
  Speaker 2: switching back to a little bit more football now. In
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: the Kent Intermediate Challenge, Shield New Romney beat Boca Juniors
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: by three goals, to two. On Saturday the twenty fifth
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: is an away league fixture against Meridian VP, which means
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: a trip to Southeast London. Now this will be a
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: close encounter as Meridian are fourteenth and New Romney are
• 7:35
  Speaker 2: fifteenth out of nineteen teams. And I think in their
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: previous meeting, I think Meridian beaten three to one. Actually
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: Hawkinstown had no fixture last week, but this week they
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: are a way to bottom club fleet Down United, which
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: means a trip to Dartford. Hawkings are currently seventh. Now
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: in the Wild of Kent Charity Cup, Hawkinstown Reserves lost
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: three nil away to wood Church Reserves, but New Romney
• 7:58
  Speaker 2: Reserves had a great win in the same competition, beating
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: Brimley Green seven to one. This week New Romney Reserves
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: are at home too, Smarten and I can't find a
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: fixture for Hawkins Reserves, possibly because there is an odd
• 8:11
  Speaker 2: number of teams in the division. So moving on to
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: Folks Inn in Victor disability football team, they had to
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: travel up to Southeast London to play Greenwich Borough, a
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: deaf football club and what sounds like a very competitive game.
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: Now we'll just repeat this in case you're wondering how
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: deaf players cope with playing on the pitch. Well, what
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: the referee does. He blows his whistle and if he
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: makes a decision, but he also holds a flag up
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: at the same time and it does work. I've seen
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: several deaf teams Welling deaf have got a good sight.
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: They've been down to Folkeston before and it does work.
• 8:46
  Speaker 2: It does seem that the players are ready for it.
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: If they think it's a controversial decision, then they immediately
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: will look straight to the ref zee if he's got
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: his flag up anyway. Vinnie Perry opened the scoring for
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: a Victor, but Greenwich pulled one back for one all.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Perry found the back of the net just before halftime,
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: making it to one, but keeper Wayne Froud was called
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: upon to make some important saves and clearances. Greenwich found
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: their way back into the game, making it to all
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: and then piled on the pressure. However, a first time
• 9:14
  Speaker 2: passed from experienced veteran a maestro a player manager, Garren
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: Wilson put Vinnie Perry through and he made no mistake
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: in Victor now three to a head. In Victor had
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: more defending to do, but they saw the game out
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: and with a well earned victory. Man of the Match
• 9:31
  Speaker 2: award was a share between Billy Hayter and Vinnie Perry.
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: And their next game is Saturday, the twenty fifth of
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: October with a friendly against apple Doore Veterans Football Club
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: three pm kickoff at the Three Hills. And just a
• 9:44
  Speaker 2: reminder in Victor, a women's team play on the new
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: artificial pitch on Sunday, the twenty sixth of October against
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Dealtown Ladies. It's a two pm kickoff, so see if
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: you can make your way down there to see how
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: the ladies get on on the artificial pitch.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: Now, it's hell of a day out there at the moment,
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: isn't it.
• 10:02
  Speaker 2: I came out this morning and my bins were like
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: half way up the street and because they was empty,
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: got blown away.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: So I've found a couple of songs that have got.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: The wind related themes in them, and I haven't heard
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: this one for a while. This is Christopher Cross and
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: Ride Like the Wind. Christopher Cross there riding like the Wind.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: I've known that for a long time either. So coming
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: up now we have got remember this one. Do you
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: know what the film it was from? Patrick Swayze He's
• 11:01
  Speaker 2: like the wind. What was the film?
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: She's like the wind? Do my tream?
• 11:33
  Speaker 3: Patrick Tracy?
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: There that a film? You know, you all remember that
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: film Dirty Dancing. It made a smashing sensation when it
• 11:42
  Speaker 2: came out, didn't it. And there was that famous catchphrase
• 11:45
  Speaker 2: that everyone was going around.
• 11:46
  Speaker 3: Saying, nobody puts baby in a corner? Remember that?
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: Well back in the day, I went up to the
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: West End to watch the theatrical version and on the
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: stage and I thought to myself, how are they going
• 12:01
  Speaker 2: to do that bit where you know where she is
• 12:05
  Speaker 2: in the water and she jumps onto him and he
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: balances her. I thought, are they going to do that
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: on stage? They're going to have a tank or something.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: But the special effects they kind of put a false,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: false picture of water flowing in front of the two
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: actors and they brought the lights down and wow, it
• 12:24
  Speaker 2: was like the highlight of the show. To be honest,
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: it really was. They got it off to a fine art.
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: You would have really thought they were in water.
• 12:32
  Speaker 3: So there he goo. That was Patrick Swayze. A couple
• 12:34
  Speaker 3: of wind.
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: Related songs because it's a bit breezy out there, so
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: time for some more sport now and it's the turn
• 12:42
  Speaker 2: of a rugby so once again Folks and Rugby Club
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: had a good weekend. The First fifteen scored ten tries,
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: winning the game by fifty eight points to nineteen against
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: a brave Sidcup side who appeared to have run out
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: of steam in the second half. The Seconds had an
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: amazing score line away against Whitstaball. I've never heard of
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: this score in rugby before. The game ended twenty two
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: points all. And to finish off the weekend on a high,
• 13:06
  Speaker 2: the Ladies team beat Beckahamian Ladies by forty five points
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: to nil. So that was their opening game of the season.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: So that's that was a great weekend. It's nice to
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: have some good news to come in constantly from Folks
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: and Rugby Club because in the past it's been a
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: little bit up and down. Let's hope it carries on.
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: Now.
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: Up and coming fixture to see the First fifteen at
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: home to Beckon Them on November the eighth, the Seconds
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: away to Gravesend also on the eighth, and the Ladies
• 13:33
  Speaker 2: away on the ninth against Thanet Wanderers. And don't forget
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: the big firework display happening at the ground on the
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: fifth of November. For further information on this, please go
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: to the Folks and Rugby Club Facebook page and you've
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: got a link there to the website, so go along there.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: That's I think the last year it was totally washed out,
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: which was such a shame.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: So fingers crossed for the weather. Well, any any.
• 13:58
  Speaker 2: Sort of fair paying display that's going to go on,
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: then let's just hope it happens. So we've got some
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: hockey news now. With two weeks running now, it's been
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: a full set of fourteen results from the Folks to
• 14:11
  Speaker 2: Optimus Hockey Club. So this is a tough one for me.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: I always make a few mistakes in this one. To
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: bear with me, let's crack on with fourteen results and
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: all the scorers. So we start with the men's first eleven. Well,
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: they lost a three to two against Rygates, will Mead
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: getting both the goals. The men's second team lost at
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: four to one against Old Williamsonian's Healthy Ball getting the
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: solitary goal. The men's thirdeam they won six to one
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: against k Sports. Ben Allen scored twice and Jude File,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Phil King, Jack Timmins and Wheelball scored one apiece. Men's
• 14:46
  Speaker 2: fourth team they lost seven three to Ashford, Kyle Mackett
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: scoring twice and Andrew Normangain won. The men's fifteen they
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: drew a three all with Blackheath Heavens, Ross Driber scoring
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: twine and ten Die.
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: Nika scoring once.
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: Men's sixteen they beat bern Ash three nil, Steve Rowe
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: logan chairman and Jack Jake Davison they got one each.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: The men's seventh team they beat Hulcombe Hurricanes four to three,
• 15:17
  Speaker 2: Matt Carter getting a hat trick, I Matt and another
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: Matt Matt Goodwin getting the other goal, and finally in
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: the men's team, the men's eighth team they lost three
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: to two to k Sports, Chris Simpson and Andrew Reed
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: getting the goals. Switching our attentions to the ladies now
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: the Ladies first team where they beat burn Ash four
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: to two, goals coming from Claire Carter she scored twice,
• 15:41
  Speaker 2: Becker Shaw and Iszi Prout getting the other two. Lady's
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: second team they drew one all with the Tumbridge Wells
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: former guest to the show, Adrian Rose scoring the solitary goal.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: There Ladies thirdeen they beat Hulcombe three nil. Em Pulland
• 15:56
  Speaker 2: scored twice and Polly Ritchie got the third. Ladies fourteen
• 16:01
  Speaker 2: they beat Maystone two to one, Ciana Craig scoring twice,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: Ladies fifteen they beat Herne Bay one nil, Lily Ella
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: Gore scoring the goal, and the Ladies sixteen they beat
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Herne Bay six nil. Janet Follo scored twice. Former guests
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: of the show Catchery on the Peak scored once. Then
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: the other goals came from Vicky Stafford, Jenny Craig and
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: Edith Kent.
• 16:26
  Speaker 3: So there we go.
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: I think I got through that lot with that making
• 16:28
  Speaker 2: a mistake. I normally make a slip up there and
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: then anyway, just looking closer at the ladies' scores, they
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: were so unlucky to have like six wins. They had
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: five wins and a one old drawer, So that is
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: amazing considering all sixteens one last week. So looking at
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: the bigger picture, over the whole fourteen games they played fourteen,
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: they won eight, they drew two, they lost four, they
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: scored goals four, they scored forty one and they conceded
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: twenty five, so that on paper is a fantastic weekend.
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: So well done everybody that turned out for the opposite
• 17:08
  Speaker 2: I think I worked it out last week. One hundred
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: and fifty four players before substitutions.
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: That is brilliant.
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: Okay, we're moving up to two thousand and three now,
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: and this is a group I do love.
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: I must admit. We'll sure you know that by now.
• 17:21
  Speaker 3: This is M People and Angel.
• 17:24
  Speaker 2: Street from two thousand and three. M People at Angel Street.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Don't you just love the voice of Heather Small? Okay? Now,
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: last week I was wanted to get in first and
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: played at Thriller as it is coming up to Halloween,
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: and I thought, you know what, I haven't played much
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: Michael Jackson. When I look back over the years, I've
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: dug this one out done and pumps.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: Out Billy Jean.
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: She was more like Queen.
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: Classic track from Michael Jackson Villy Jean Jean. Okay, just
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: move on a bit more sport now, shall we well?
• 18:50
  Speaker 3: Sunday morning?
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Last Sunday morning, it was an early start for me
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: as I had an hour's drive to meet up with
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: the Nice Work team at six thirty, Yes o six thirty,
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: set up for the Bedroom Park half marathon and ten
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: k through the beautiful but undulating forest trails. There was
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: almost a dead even split for the choice of distance
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: in with one hundred and seventy seven finishing the ten
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: k and one hundred and seventy eight finishing the half marathon. Now,
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: this is the first time I can remember actually because
• 19:19
  Speaker 2: it is a bit of a journey that there's not
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: any local runners present and the furthest away that the
• 19:25
  Speaker 2: furthest distance traveled by an athlete. There was a lady
• 19:28
  Speaker 2: there came with her family, especially from Somerset. They were
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: looking for a trail run. They wanted a weekend away
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: and they ended up in Bedgbury Park and they I
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: was chatting to her after the runner. She said she
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: absolutely loved it. It was really really worth the trip. But
• 19:44
  Speaker 2: you had to feel for the half marathoners as they
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: did two loops coming past the finish line, knowing there
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: to go round again. And I was on the microphone
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: at the finish point, so the ten k has kind
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: of came in first, and the half marathoners they did
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: a little extra loop while they were at on their
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: second lap. I mean, but to go around again, psychologically,
• 20:06
  Speaker 2: it's really one of the toughest things you've got to do,
• 20:08
  Speaker 2: certainly in my experience in my running days. If it
• 20:10
  Speaker 2: was a loop two loops, thought oh no, I come of,
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: just go out a bit further and do one loop. Anyway,
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: they all pass that barrier and finish the race successfully.
• 20:20
  Speaker 2: My next race on the MIC is the Deal five miler,
• 20:23
  Speaker 2: organized by the Deal tri Club. That's on Sunday, the
• 20:26
  Speaker 2: second of November, which is this one's different. It's a
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: dead flat, fast course, but in my recollection of the
• 20:35
  Speaker 2: Deal five, it always seems to be really windy or
• 20:38
  Speaker 2: pouring with rain, and sooner or later you're going to
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: copy it one way or the other. Running along the
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: seafront there. However, in between between now and the Deal five,
• 20:48
  Speaker 2: I have two Halloween park runs to compare. Saturday, the
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: twenty fifth of October sees me at the Dover Waterfront
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: Part Run, where there will be prizes for the best
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: dressed adult and the best addressed. Now this is in
• 21:01
  Speaker 2: conjunction with a five k Your Way, which is organized
• 21:04
  Speaker 2: by cancer survivor some of Luiz. This happens once a
• 21:08
  Speaker 2: month on the last Saturday of the month. She tries
• 21:12
  Speaker 2: to encourage families and friends who've been touched by cancer
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: to come along get some exercise.
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: You don't have to run it.
• 21:18
  Speaker 2: You can walk it, have a coffee afterwards and swap
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: some stories. Now, this race also marks the one hundredth
• 21:25
  Speaker 2: edition of the Dover Waterfront Park Run, so it's celebrations
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: all around. It's going to be I'm looking forward to it. It's
• 21:30
  Speaker 2: going to be a good morning. Then on the Sunday,
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: the twenty six she'll be playing some spooky music at
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: the Radna Park Junior Park Run, which starts at nine
• 21:39
  Speaker 2: am Radne Park. The clue is in the title and
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: the children will be encouraged once again to come along
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: dressed in a Halloween themed outfit. Hopefully some of the
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: parents and adults will also join in the spirit of
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: the things and that's always a good one. So parents,
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: if you want to come along for the first time,
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: then please just check out Radna Park your park round.
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: You will need a barcode if you want to time
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: and but it is free and then with that barcode
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: you can go to any junior part run in the country.
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: How good is that? Right?
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: So we're going to take a little break for some
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: music now and this is one direction from twenty fifteen
• 22:18
  Speaker 2: and drag me down.
• 22:22
  Speaker 1: I've got five far hard, I'm not scared of the dark.

• 23:04
  Speaker 2: hobble in. He did four forty nine and nineteen but

  Speaker 2: places to go running. Nicki Goodwin went to Lubljana in Slovenia.

• 24:05
  Speaker 2: he did very well. Really he came two hundred and
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: thirty second out of four hundred and forty seven, so
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: about halfway in the field. Well done to you, Adam.
• 24:14
  Speaker 2: Now fifty four kilometers that is well, let me think
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: one hundred k is sixty two miles, so that's it's
• 24:23
  Speaker 2: about thirty three thirty four miles. And I've been down there.
• 24:27
  Speaker 2: We compared a race down there many years ago in
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: near Swanage and the countryside is lovely to look at,
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: but you wouldn't want to do fifty fifty four kilometers
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: over it. So on to park run venues. Martin Salmon
• 24:41
  Speaker 2: was found one at Basilden, pill Maoll found one at

  Speaker 2: on the Sunday, well on Greg Now. It was also
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: the weekend of the Great South Run. Now the Great
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: South Run is ten miles as opposed to the Great
• 25:17
  Speaker 2: North Run, which is a half marathon thirteen point one miles.
• 25:21
  Speaker 2: Seven South Kent Harriers took part. Sewn Pilcher won twenty
• 25:25

  Speaker 2: PB came from Ian Tomlinson one thirty six twenty five
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: Marie Westbrook. She ran it in one thirty nine to
• 25:50
  Speaker 2: fifty five and it was reported that conditions were tough.
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: It was rainy, that was strong winds and once again
• 25:56
  Speaker 2: I've been down there. It's the Great South Run is
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: sort of Portsmouth part of the world, but they do
• 26:02
  Speaker 2: run along the prom at south Sea and me and
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: Missus Ferret we stayed at south Sea but it was
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: a lovely time. Then we didn't go down for the
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: Great South Run. But it's a bit like Hasting's Sea Front.
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: It's a long, flat, open run at sea level, so
• 26:21
  Speaker 2: you get the wind whipping off the sea and it
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: can be very uncomfortable. But also there was a marathon
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: in York. Catherine O'Connor. She set a PB by six minutes.
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: She run in by three hours twenty four and she
• 26:37
  Speaker 2: came first in her age category and qualified for England
• 26:40
  Speaker 2: Masters in twenty twenty six. So well done to you, Catherine.
• 26:43
  Speaker 2: All that hard work's paid off. John O'Hara did the
• 26:46
  Speaker 2: marathon in four hours four and husband and wife duo
• 26:50
  Speaker 2: and both former guests of the show, Pam Mclive Allen
• 26:53
  Speaker 2: running the York ten miler, both finishing in one hour
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: twenty four minutes. Except I did hear a little birdie toe.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: I mean that Clive outsprinted pam Ha the finish, putting
• 27:02
  Speaker 2: him in the doghouse.
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: For the rest of the week.
• 27:04
  Speaker 2: But spaah thought for Tristan Upton from South Kent Harriers,
• 27:08
  Speaker 2: who trained for months to run a marathon in his
• 27:11
  Speaker 2: hometown of Cape Town in South Africa, only to be
• 27:14
  Speaker 2: told on the start line, along with thousands of other runners,
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: that the event had been canceled.
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: Was he a joke?
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: They was all talking would They said, this can't be right.
• 27:24
  Speaker 2: But the answer no, it wasn't a joke. It was
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: for real right on the start line. The reason given
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: was due to safety reasons because of strong winds on
• 27:31
  Speaker 2: the course and all the runners at the start line
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: I found out a bit hard to swallow when it
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: was quite calm at the starts. But these decisions are
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: not taken lightly by the organizers. I mean it's bad enough.
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: I've been in a situation with a park run run
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: director where let's say you get two hundred people and
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: the weather doesn't look too good and they've got to
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: make this decision does it go ahead, especially if there's lightning.
• 27:53
  Speaker 2: If there's lightning, it's definitely a no go. But so
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: these storms must have been pretty horrendous if they were
• 28:00
  Speaker 2: going to take the bold decision upset thousands of runners.
• 28:04
  Speaker 2: But safety is the first priority, isn't it?
• 28:08
  Speaker 3: Okay?
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: So we've got what also, I've got something else he
• 28:12
  Speaker 2: has tapped away.
• 28:13
  Speaker 3: Of course I have.
• 28:14
  Speaker 2: You've got Sam Hart and the plod Squad. Now, Sam's
• 28:17
  Speaker 2: been sending me some reports about how his plod squad
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: is going, so this is the latest. Sam says that
• 28:23
  Speaker 2: they successfully completed two sessions of three kilometers. Now they
• 28:28
  Speaker 2: had a mixture of old and new faces and we
• 28:31
  Speaker 2: even had a two and a half year old ride
• 28:33
  Speaker 2: his bike alongside his mum, proving that really anyone can
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: do it. Some older kids also came along with their bikes,
• 28:39
  Speaker 2: running alongside their mums and there was lots of smiles
• 28:42
  Speaker 2: and laughing as they went along. More days will be
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: added soon, which can be found on the Facebook page
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: plod Squad Folkston or on Instagram. And since Sam sent
• 28:52

• 28:55
  Speaker 2: in fact a run on Thursday with twenty third of
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: October at four point thirty and on Saturday at ten thirty.
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: On the twenty fifth of October at ten thirty, did
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: I say that I think I did that's it the
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: lees Cliff Hall. All the run start of the lees
• 29:10
  Speaker 2: Cliff Hall. And what they're going to do is a

  Speaker 2: gentle warm up then a gentle plod. All ages and
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: all abilities are welcome and the added bonus is it's free.
