This week’s training sessions are;
Tuesday 4th March
TBH Winter Grand Prix: Race 6
An exact 5k course along Newcastle Quayside which crosses both the Swing Bridge and Millennium Bridge.
All members / new runners to the club are welcome to take part in the event, and don’t worry if you haven’t competed in any of the previous races as current form in training and recent race times will be taken into consideration when the Handicaps times are set.
For those not familiar with handicap races, slower runners set off first with faster runners introduced at later intervals.
All competitors are asked to register at East End Pool between 6:00 – 6:30pm before making their way to Low Walker for a 7:00pm start.
Runners competing in the event for the first time are asked to fill in this pre-registration form.
A map of the route can be found here and can I ask all competitors to please read the race guidelines (click here).
Many thanks to all the members who have volunteered for the event.
