Dear All If any of our club members are not running the Btn Half and would like to give something back to the club (as the club give a lot to you) then please consider volunteering with other Arena members. It’s a great way to give back to both the club and to our sport…
There were two cheeky club record improvements set on New Years day down at the Hove Prom and Brighton and Hove parkruns. How on earth anyone managed to get a club record and a PB with sooooo many runners taking to the both runs I’ll never know however two of our intrepid members took it…
With the very last kick of the game, er sorry wrong sport, so with the very last touch of the ball, oops again, so with the last run of the year and just when you thought it was all over (I refer to admins post about the end of year club records) there is one…
15/12/2018 We like to review the club records at the end of the year to see if there have been any changes or improvements. 2018 has yet again proved to be another stella year for Arena 80 athletes with yet more records broken and improvements made a plenty. We’ll review each category as we go…
