The manxathletics.com forum

Welcome to the manxathletics.com forum.  Please share information and your views on the sport in the Isle of Man with others. 

The forum has been operating in its present form since April 2004 and I particularly welcome comments from new contributors, whether you live on or off the Isle of Man, if you have an interest in Manx athletics.

Many people have used the forum to give thanks to the officials or their own supporters when they have enjoyed an event. Contrustive criticism is always welcome as an additional means of communication, although it is not intended to replace formal communication between clubs and other bodies and their members.

If you are unable to find information about an event on any of the Manx websites, then the forum is the best place to ask for help from other people. Whilst you can email me at murray@manxathletics.com  and I will do my best to point you in the right direction, the people who have the answer to your question are likely to visit the forum so it is better that you ask it here. manxathletics.com is an independent site and I do not hold office within any of the five Manx clubs.

There are a few rules. Firstly, you should always use your real name as, apart from making people accountable for what they say, one of the objectives of the website is to make the sport friendly and appealing so please do not hide behind a nickname (anonymous entries will be deleted). Secondly, (it should go without saying) you must not insult or offend anyone. Thirdly, pesistent abuse of rules 1 and 2 will result in the forum being withdrawn.

Thanks for being sensible and I hope you continue to enjoy the forum and the sport.

Murray Lambden

Message:   I think these results can now be taken as being official.

Apologies to Barry Moore, who appears to have been a victim of the confusion over which categories of vets were doing 3 laps and which were doing 4. Barry stopped after 3 laps, whilst all the other V35s did 4 laps and only received recorded times after 4 laps.

It is therefore impossible to slot Barry into the results with the other V35s, and so he appears amongst the results of the V40 and over category. I will ensure that Barry is credited with a finish and his result will count towards the Cross Challenge league, although precisely how I am going to do this I'm not 100% sure at the moment!

This highlights yet again the urgent need for a volunteer to come forward to co-ordinate next winter's series, to ensure consistency between each round of the series, especially in terms of distances etc. And before anyone asks, that person won't be me - my involvement finishes at the end of this season!!
