Hi everybody,  

Great to see everyone back at training this week.  Just a few brief reminders – training information follows.

Club Communications: Please ensure you are signed up to and remember to check Facebook for any last-minute updates to schedules due to the weather (etc). For a reminder of how the club communicates with parents and guardians, see our website.

Cross Country: The Harrier League returns this Sunday 19 January at Wrekenton. Information on cross country is on our website If your junior is already registered, don’t forget their number as this is for the whole League season.  You will need to pay cash for a replacement on the day if you don’t have the number.

Essential training kit: Please continue to ensure your juniors are dressed appropriately for the weather forecast. Hi-vis clothing remains essential for outside running, plus layers, gloves, hats etc for cold evenings. To buy official club kit, see the ‘club clothing’ section on the website.  Please allow at least a week or two in advance if you need a vest for racing.
