This time wee remembered our chairs, so a little comfort in our spectating, and we managed to kick back and simply watch a good chunk of the days activities, waiting around for the 4 x 400 at the end of the day, which in the end we were short of 1 runner in and had to pull out.<\/p>\n<p>The 3000m was run at just after 2pm, and was, due to numbers run as a single combined race including both A and B stream U17&#8217;s and A and B stream U20&#8217;s the inclusion of the U20&#8217;s added some competition, but with a starting grid of 7 runners, not a lot. From the bell there was a determined charge to lead by Toby Clyde from Thames Valley Harriers who went on to win the combined race, as an U20, in 9&#8217;12&#8221;, Robbie came second overall but won the U17&#8217;s race in 9&#8217;33&#8221;, the second place runner (from Chiltern) in the U17&#8217;s finished in 10&#8217;17&#8221; so a very convincing win. Fellow AFD athlete Dan Rickards came 2nd in the U20&#8217;s finishing 3rd overall with a time of 9&#8217;49&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>A good, and quite tactical run, Robbie decided not to go with the U20, partially convinced that he would die, and to some extent not worried since he wasn&#8217;t in that race. Still slow compared to last season, but with all the problems hopefully behind us it is nice to trim another few seconds off his seasons best.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_746\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/?attachment_id=746\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-746\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-746\" class=\"size-large wp-image-746\" src=\"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YDL2-001-800x559.jpg\" alt=\"Robbie starts fast behind Thames Valley Harriers, Toby clyde\" width=\"800\" height=\"559\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YDL2-001-800x559.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YDL2-001-400x279.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YDL2-001-215x150.jpg 215w, https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YDL2-001-150x105.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/YDL2-001.jpg 1176w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-746\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Robbie starts fast behind Thames Valley Harriers, Toby Clyde before settling down to run the race at a steady 77 second per lap pace.<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A very sunny yet windy day left a number of spectators with decidedly pink skin, a full on afternoon of spectating for us, Robbie raced in the 3ooom at 14:05 we arrived at the very new and very nice Wycombe Phoenix track at about 12:30, just missing Jack Boswell winning \u2026 <a class=\"continue-reading-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/ydl2-wycombe\/\"> Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr; <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,6,7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-745","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-athletics","category-club","category-ctrack"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/745","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=745"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/745\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":747,"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/745\/revisions\/747"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=745"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=745"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.runwrecker.co.uk\/wpsite\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=745"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
