Thursday, February 18, 2010 at 1:20PM In the 'Best of ACE' section I have uploaded Edition No.2 from April 1982.
It is interesting to note an article mentioning the Council trying to ruin Bute Park; how history repeats itself, together with the first Castles route.
Cardiff Castle - Caerphilly Castle - Merthyr Castle - Builth Well Castle - Welshpool Castle (Powis) - Barmouth - Harlech Castle - Criccieth Castle - Caernarvon Castle.
"Next year we hope to have two teams running, a fast team and a vets team"
Enjoy the trip down memory lane. ACE Edition 2 (April 1982).
Sunday, February 7, 2010 at 1:46PM The ladies put in a sterling performance earlier this afternoon at the European Clubs Cross Country Championships. On a tight twisty and often very muddy course all the team put in terrific effort.
Up against some of the foremost European Clubs, Les Croupiers' Ladies; representing the UK, did themselves proud. All finished including Jen who was suffering the latter part of the race with a painful ankle injury.
Congratulations to all the team of Katie Beecher, Maria Zubizarreta, Libby O´Duffy, Jen Salter, Liz Ashton and team captain Phil Cook.
Now off to buy the drinkers amongst them a well deserved glass or two of Rioja.

Arguably the most significant team competition in our club's 30 year history!
As stated earlier on the forum, we have been to this fixture before - in 1989 in the Algarve and in 2000 in Salamanca, Spain - but never before have we represented Great Britain. It's difficult to understate how important this is - perhaps not so much in the results of the race, but in the raising of our club profile, and the belief it can give our runners. Hopefully that belief can only rub off on others.
An e-mail from Martin Duff, previewing the event for Athletics Weekly prompted me to realise - hey, the national athletic press are interested - this is our chance to promote ourselves. So good luck to Katie Beecher, Libby O'Duffy, Jen Salter, Maria Zubizarreta and Liz Ashton - you deserve to be there. Great to see so many taking the chance to travel to support - yet again proving what makes our club so great. Back home, we'll be with you every step of the way.
