This will be at the Brownlee Centre
Names are at the end of this post – after the satellite view picture.
Valley Striders AC club has booked the Brownlee Centre 6pm to 8pm on Tuesday 22 August
- juniors from 6pm to 7pm
- intermediate adults from 6:30pm to 7:30pm
- experienced adult runners from 7pm to 8pm
This post describes the session for all juniors.
There are only 3 of Richard and Alex’s “C” group – I suggest Sam Redmond runs with one of the advanced groups, Harry Durbin runs with “us” and Keira Sykes can choose.
The juniors have use of the whole circuit from 6pm to 6:30pm, the southern half of the circuit from 6:30pm to 6:45pm, and the southern loop 6:45pm to 7:00pm.
Activities
- 5:55pm – arrival
- 6:00pm to 6:10pm – briefing – then some parents take up marshalling positions to support 1 mile run,
- 6:10pm – also recruit volunteers to marshal the finish including timekeeper (with parkrun app?), funnel marshals to keep finishers in order, “tokens” to hand out numbered discs, and recorders to write down positions against runner’s name
- 6:10pm – all children move to half mile start
- 6:12pm to 6:16pm – half mile run – southern half of circuit. Mainly for younger runners, also for sprinters who don’t like to run a mile.
- 6:13pm – children not doing half mile move to mile start
- 6:14pm to 6:25pm – 1 mile run – full circuit of cycle track.
- 6:30pm – everyone move to southern loop, organise into teams of 4
- 6:35pm to 6:45pm – relays – teams of 4, each runner does 300m. Each team MUST have a parent to manage the team.
- 6:50pm – move to behind main building
- 6:55pm to 7:05pm – Bob’s Hill Challenge (try one lap and then maybe more)
- 7:10pm – go home!
Note it will not be possible to run the half mile and the mile. This will then give us time to do the hill challenge
