Dates for your diaries – update – 10 July 21

Ladies and gents,

A few updates to the “dates for your diaries”, it looks like we are getting busy again 🙂

Club Championship

Given the sparsity of races this year and the perceived difficulty of getting an entry, we have decided to try and run a club championship of a handful of races which will not require people to be fastest on the button to get an entry. This is the current plan:

• Helsby RC event along the Oakmere way – 28^th July – organised by Jackie
• Helsby RC event using Old Pale, Delamere – 11^th or 13^th August – organised by Fitzy
• Park run – Delamere – date to be decided when Park run starts again, if Delamere does not start up in time, we will selevt another venue
• Park run – Phoenix Park, Runcorn – date to be decided when Park run starts again
• Farndon 10K – Col T has managed to secure 30 place – Sunday 26^th September

We will organize a points system, allowing people to be competitive if they enter 3 or 4 of the events, hopefully with the ability to have a bit of an awards evening into the autumn

Our expectation is that the Borders League and XC’s will allow us to resume normal racing thereafter.

Chester 10K

We are providing marshaling support on Sunday 18^th July.

Works party for the rugby pitches

You may be aware that HCSC has taken over the lease for the rugby pitches, this is great news as it gives us more access to the facility and potentially the ability to develop a running track. However with opportunity comes responsibility and we need to be doing our bit to help maintain the pitches, we have therefore committed to being part of a work party on Saturday 31^st July.

Pie Peas Race

Many of our runners have entries carried over from last year – Wednesday 4^th August – vrac.niftyentries.com/Pie-and-Peas-5-2020

Open Day

HCSC intend to have an open day on Saturday 29th August and will require volunteers to help out

Frodsham Downhill Run

We have been asked to provide marshals and timekeeping for this event – Sunday 30th August

AGM

Albeit a few months later than usual, we intend to have a face-to-face AGM on Wednesday 15^th September after a shortened club run.

Borders League

The Borders League will resume in the Autumn, we have been asked to organize a race for October or November – www.bordersleague.org.uk
