This week’s thoughts from Rob…. One ray of sunshine doesn’t make a summer, one good training session doesn’t make an athlete. This past week we’ve had almost 120 people attend training sessions and the numbers just keep growing. Any time soon we will sign our two hundredth member. We have lots of new members and we need to keep the momentum going. Welcome to all our newer members and please remember at all times. It never gets any easier, you just get better at what you are doing. Just a reminder that the cross country season will soon be on the way. Sunday 9th October at Acklam is the first fixture. Women and o/65 men run 5k, Men run 8 to 10k. Younger members run shorter than 5k. TASH will pay all your entry fees, all you have to do is turn up on the day and run. Once you have been given your number you keep this number for all 7 ( seven) fixtures. Individual and team points are awarded through out the winter season and medals given once the last fixture has been completed. This is my 41st NY/ SD cross country season and it’s almost sixty years since I won my first area championship medal. If you want any information on anything to do with cross country running then I guess I’m the person to ask. Don’t be afraid to give it a go. See me at training and I will point you in the right direction. I can advise and encourage but I can’t run it for you. The challenge is entirely up to you. If you like mud,rain and being very, very cold then cross country running is perfect for you.
Note: All you o/35 year old runners of all abilities. Yorkshire Vets Fell Running Championships. Cop Hill Fell Race. November 6th 2022. 10.30 start. 6 miles, two laps. Famous for it’s cakes!!! Says not suitable for wheelchairs which you’d expect. Race limit of two hundred. ( 135 spaces left)
