Good afternoon,
Well, that’s 2024 all but gone. I know that quite a few members have been active over the festive period and that some of us are planning to do a parkrun on New Years Day (weather permitting).
Some important updates
AGM and Social – 18th January
Our AGM (which I promise will only take about 5 minutes) and social will take place at The Talbot on 18th January. Jayne has posted the menu on our Facebook page. Please pay by bank transfer to the club account with your name and ‘AGM’ as the reference and let Jayne know what you have ordered (jaynecresswell@btinternet.com) as soon as possible.
Magnificent Eastnor Castle 7 – April 6th
Entries for the race are now open. The canicross has already sold out. Please share the link below for the main race and save the day as we will need the usual volunteer team. Chris will send details for volunteers in due course.
Magnificent Eastnor Castle 7 2025 – EntryCentral
Winter Cross Country
The Rotherwas race on 8th December was cancelled. Neil will confirm a new date for this race in due course.
The next dates are
12th January – Croft
2nd February – Forest Fields
Let Neil know if you are planning to run any of the races. He will let you know how to register if you have not done so already.
Couch to 5K
The new course starts this Sunday (5th January). If you are able to help lead the course and haven’t told Sally can you please get in touch with her and let her know. If you know of anyone who may want to do the course direct them to the link on the website.
Newent parkrun takeover
Thank you to everyone who offered to help. As you know the event was cancelled due to bad weather. We will arrange a new date shortly and I will be asking for volunteers for that date in due course.
I think that is all for the moment.
It just leaves me to thank you all for your support over the last year and to wish you a Happy New Year. I look forward to seeing as may of you as possible at our first club run on 7th January.
Best wishes
Mark
