A hectic weekend for many of you at the British Masters Athletics Champs at Derby on September 1/2/3.
A very hot weekend and well done to everyone. NMAC athletes were everywhere and performing wonderfully. Welcome to those new to the Champs and well done to those who struggled through injury, tried new events, or just got round.
I would like to congratulate the new British Champions:

Apologies if I have missed anyone. With the results in mixed age groups it is difficult sometimes to know who won what. Please tell me if there is anyone to add to this list.
Let me know if you think you might have broken a NMAC record, I will check and update our records.
