Hi Rob

I'll be at the club tonight.

Terry

No problem Terry. I have added you to my list. I am just doing the entries now.
Rob.

Just in case anyone missed last night's announcement, a group of us will be running the 10k race rounte on Saturday morning meeting on the club carpark at 9:00 am. This gives all of those marshlling on Sunday a chance to reply to those runners who maoan 'its alright for you mate, you just have to stand there' .....you can smile and tell them 'i did it yesterday with no water stops or supporters'

Hi everyone Can all Marshals on Sunday please cheer and support all runners on route, read the e-mail that Anne received today from RW.You may get your photo in the magazine. Enjoy !

Hi Anne
Are there places available for signing up on the day on Sunday? I am covering the race for Runner's World magazine. I'll have a photographer with me who will be out on the course taking photos (presumably in the rain if we're to believe the weather forecast...).

 

Look forward to seeing you on Sunday

With the exception of the weather that’s forecast, it promises to be quite a day tomorrow; a very big thank you in advance to all members who’ll be helping, the high number of people who’ve volunteered is great testament to ARC.

All marshal’s should hopefully by now have received their instructions, on the off-chance that anyone hasn’t received any info and is available to help out, please come and find me tomorrow; likewise if anyone has friends/family with them tomorrow who can help out in anyway, this would also be welcomed; if the weather’s like it’s been today, then folks who could hold large umbrella’s over the people taking down the times & numbers of the finishers would be greatly appreciated – it’s hard to write on soggy bits of paper!

A reminder that members will have the opportunity to run either the 5K or 10K for themselves on Tuesday night, and this will be followed by a celebratory buffet.

Hi Everyone can I express my thanks to you all for turning out in the pouring rain today - come rain or shine Aldridge Running Club can always guarantee a great race..

Despite the terrible weather, still very positive comments on Runners World website. A few comments about the traffic in some areas and apparant lack of marshalls in those areas (???), otherwise excellant and all reviewers saying they definately would run it again.
Well Done Everyone!!!
