Southern Veterans
League - 2004
So the Track & Field league is over for
another year. BVAC did exceptionally well this
year. The women finished runners-up to Bexley in
a very tight finish, losing out only by one point
in the final league match of the season - had we
won that we would have been equal on points in
the overall standings. The men came third with
the second place again resting on the final match
when Medway & Maidstone came through to win
their first meeting of the season.
In his first year as T&F Manager, Phil
Greenfield says:
"The season has been notable for me
for some excellent performances and the
have-a-go spirit of our ladies. I hope that
next season we will do even better and try to
ensure we score in every event."

Commemorative One Mile
Races - 6 May 2004
To mark the 50th anniversary of
the first 4-minute mile, there were a number of
One Mile races held at the Dartford track in
Central Park, Cranford Road (link to Map). 6 May is the day on which that record
was set in 1954. It falls this year on a
Thursday. Races start 7.00pm.
The result in the Men's Vets
Invitation race was a 1-2 for Bromley Vets. Phil
Greenfield and Chris Marshall tore the field
apart, leading from the gun and together
stretching out the field before Phil added some
extra pace on the last lap with a final sprint to
take the tape.
