BA Athletics Club News Digest 9th April 2013

This News Digest

This is being sent to you because you are on the BA Athletics Club email list.  If you wish to be removed please email us at news@barunner.org.uk. Do you know someone who might appreciate being on the mailing list?  They don't need to be a member.  Let us know.

Difficulty viewing this email? Read it off the website instead - http://www.barunner.org.uk/News Latest.shtml.

NEXT WEEK's Digest should be a pre-London Marathon special.  I say "should be" because I'll need contributions from some of our 25 runners and 120 marshals to make it so.  How much training have you done?  How many miles in your peak week?  Will you be taking specific food and drink with you? And a question for the runners rather than the marshals - what is your target time? (the target time isn't for curiosity or so that we can laugh at you afterwards - it will help us to spot you to cheer you on at our marshalling points between 25 miles and the finish).  Also what colour shirt will you have on - and if you are doing the run for charity what is your charity collection page? BRIEF answers please - e.g. 26 words or less!  To us at news@barunner.org.uk and/or Steve Hillier Steve Hillier.

Alterations to the Club Diary

I will have made alterations to the calendar but could you also add notifications into the digest re the following:
  • Club attendance at PARKRUN on 27th April will now be at Bushy Park. [Steve Newell says that we may have a club member achieving a parkrun milestone that week]
  • Green Belt Relay has been cancelled by the organisers. [That is a pity, adds Roderick, but it will enable me to promote the Stockley Park 10k on Sunday 12th May]
