East Peckham 10k 2025
Only five SAC runners were attracted to East Peckham, near Paddock Wood, for the 10k on 27th July, despite the potential for fast times on a pretty flat course. But there were some good performances by those who did go, led by Andrew Mead in 31st overall and 2nd M55, with Sally Shewell (above) 2nd W65 and Simon Hallpike 1st M70.
The SAC results were:

SAC Handicap July 2025
Heather Fitzmaurice easily won the July handicap ahead of Simon Hallpike and Sam Znetyniak.
Heather beat her handicap by a minute and was the fastest runner on the day, as well as the best age-related performer.
With just two more races to go in what's likely to be the final series in the current format, Jon Maxim still leads by two points ahead of Chris Desmond, with Heather moving into third place another point behind and ahead of Simon Hallpike on tiebreak.
The penultimate race of the series, and the final one over the alternate seven-mile course, starts from the track at 08:30 on Sunday 17th August and all are welcome.
All the details are here.
SAC at the Sevenoaks 7 2025
With new management and Kent Grand Prix status, the Sevenoaks 7 attracted twice as many runners as in recent years.
The organisers and helpers, led by David Hale and Lucy Ching, did a brilliant job, and even the weather was kind.
With great support along the way, ten SAC runners were able actually to run the race including Nicola Glover sweeping up at the rear of the field.
Jake Mears, 3rd overall, and Sophie Day, 1st W35, lead the way for SAC.
The SAC results were:
