Good luck to Mel James, Elio Lepore and Mike Davies when they compete in Venice (Jeselo) at the European Masters Championships later this week/month. Both Mel and Elio will be starting their track events later this week - Mel will be competing in the heats of the 100m, 200m and 400m whilst Elio will be competing in the heats of the 1500m. In addition, Elio will be competing in the Cross Country. The heats for the track events should start on Thursday, 5th September. The Half Marathon (Mike Davies) will be held on Sunday, 15th September along with the track relays. EMAC Events by date 2019Apparently, the weather for the first week is not too promising. Buon viaggio - I hope that's correct Elio? Edited by user 01 September 2019 20:40:28(UTC)

Mixed news from the first day's results. http://www.fidal.it/risu...7632/RESULTSBYEVENT1.htmMel finished 11th overall in the heats of the 100m M75 in a creditable time of 16.42 seconds but didn't qualify for the final. Only 8 athletes qualified - the fastest M75 athlete to qualify was from Sweden - 14.31 seconds with 8th athlete qualifying in 15.39. Slim margins. Mel must now turn his attention to his other distances - the 400m and 200m. Heats and semi-final for the 400m M75 will be on Sunday, 8th September and the heats for the 200m M75 will be on Wednesday, 11th September. Good news for Elio - he's through - 10th fastest in the M65 1500m in 5:19.81 seconds. The fastest M65 athlete was from Ireland - 5:11.74 seconds. The final for the M65 1500m is on Saturday, 7th September. Good luck to both. http://emac2019.fidalser...imetable_byDate_0822.pdfEdited by user 06 September 2019 13:38:19(UTC)

A tough 1500m final for Elio. He came 9th out of 16 finalists (M65) in a time of 5:20.20 but it looks as if there was a photo finish for him with less than 1 second separating him from two other challengers. I'm sure we'll get the full story on his return. http://www.fidal.it/risu...7632/RESULTSBYEVENT8.htmBravo Maestro. Elio must now devote his attention to the Cross Country tomorrow, Sunday, 8th September in Caorle while Mel begins his 400m challenge in Jeselo. Good luck to both.

Update on today's events- Mel came 11th in his 400m M75 Heat today in 1:26.17 and didn't make the final. I know that Mel has not spent too much time on this event and will be looking to make a stronger challenge in the 200m Heats. http://www.fidal.it/risu...2019/COD7632/Gara035.htmUnfortunately, I cannot find a result for Elio in the Cross Country (M65). I know that transport links to Caorle have been problematic. Mel's focus will now be the Heats of the 200m on Wednesday.

Thanks all.
Sadly, Mel once again missed out on a place in the final (by 1 second) of the 200m but he will be representing team GB in the 4x100m (Sat.) and the 4x400m (Sun.) at the weekend.

Another medal for Mel- Silver in the M75, 4x400m GB team. They were pipped by 0.24 sec by the German team. Hope to see the medals on Thursday night, Mel. The Half was a return to reality for me. Iβd forgotten how far it was but thatβs a story for a training run on Thursday nights. Edited by user 16 September 2019 15:21:48(UTC)
