The Steeple Chasers Quiz Night is BACK!

And if you’ve been before, you’ll know this is definitely not your average quiz night…

Yup, the amazing Carl Saunders is back to bring the fun for another brilliant evening of questions, games, and friendly competition 🤩

As always, there’s a cash prize for the winning team, plus a raffle and a bar available.

Tickets cost £90 for a table of up to 6, and that includes a hot supper (which has historically gone down very well!)

The fun kicks off at 7 pm on Friday 23 October at Steeple Morden Village Hall.

That may seem a way off now, but we advise you to get thinking of creative team names now, because you might just score some extra points that way!

🏅 MEDAL MONDAY 🏅

There were some seriously impressive achievements from our Steeple Chasers this weekend!

🚴 First up, a huge well done to our Tour de Broads crew!

👏 Mike and Jane Allton took on an incredible 100 miles�
👏 Alison Dyche and Steve Dyche completed 50 miles�
👏 Laura Sims and Rob rode 25 miles, with Rob completing his first ever sportive! 🎉

🥾 Meanwhile, Anita Birch swapped two wheels for two feet and completed the Mighty Hike marathon for Macmillan Cancer Support. And the name “mighty” is apt, as it was a full marathon on foot💪

💍 And finally, perhaps the biggest achievement of the weekend... Cameron and Ashley got married! ❤️

It was an absolutely beautiful day filled with love, and we wish the Henrys so much love and happiness! 🥂

What a weekend for the club. Well done everyone! 💚

🎒 Back to school… Back to routine… AND BACK TO RUN-BIKE-RUN! 🏃‍♀️🚲

September always feels like the month when everything gets back into gear, so why not give yourself a new challenge to work towards too? 👀

Our Run-Bike-Run Mini is back on Sunday 20 September, and it’s a brilliant event if you fancy trying something a little different without committing to a full duathlon.

The format is nice and simple:

🏃 3km run
🚲 10km bike
🏃 1km run

You don’t need to be a super-speedy runner or an experienced cyclist. It’s designed to be a fun and friendly local challenge, whether it’s your first ever multi-sport event or you just fancy mixing up your usual training.

So, now that the summer holidays are over and normal life is starting again… why not pop a new goal in the calendar? 💪

We missed Medal Monday, so today's Winner Wednesday is dedicated to Jane Allton who completed her 350th parkrun on Saturday!

Yes folks, you heard that right. 350th! That's roughly 7 years' worth of Saturday mornings and a whopping 1,750 kilometres!

In true Chasers style, both humans and canines turned out in force at Wimpole Estate parkrun for the occasion, with Tara Gibbons even fashioning a special medal for the Alltonator.

And an honourary shoutout also goes to Colin the Dog, who won prizes in the Party On Potton dog show 🐶

It's an extra special Medal Monday today 🥇

Today's Medal Monday goes out to everyone who earned a medal on our Friendship Run yesterday... or baked, volunteered, organised, and cheered 💛

Between the 5k, 10k and kids’ 1k, we had runners of all ages taking part, and it was exactly what the Friendship Run is supposed to be about: getting out there and enjoying it together.

There were some extra-special milestones too!

🎉 Ren completed her first ever 10k and earned her first 10k medal! A huge achievement, and hopefully the first of many.

💛 We also had a fantastic father-daughter duo from Meldreth taking on the run together. First 10k at 10 years old - how amazing is that?

And, of course, every single person who took part helped us raise an amazing £369 for YoungMinds, our club charity. That’s something everyone who joined us yesterday can feel incredibly proud of.

And as always, the ice cream van proved to be a hit with our 1k participants 🍦

Well done, everyone! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️💛
