Congratulations to all Midland Masters members who completed the marathon yesterday under difficult conditions. Well done.
A summary of their results appears on the London Marathon Page at http://bit.ly/faVmQO
I’ve only just found out the confusion on how many legs are to be run for the M35-44 & M45-54 age groups.
The entry form said 4 legs but the Newsletter said 3 legs for the M45-54 and I didn’t spot it. Therefore some Clubs have entered 4 athletes and some 3. The decision has been made to keep to the M35-44 as 4 legs and the M45-54 as 3 legs, this avoids teams turning up with a runner short.
We are trying to keep to the BMAF 10 year age groups and the changes have caused some confusion.
Apologies for this error and I hope that it doesn’t spoil your participation.
One final appeal…. please do your best to attend the AGM after the presentation of prizes for the relays.
Volunteers RequiredIt’s that time of year again!! After our own Road Relays that take place this coming weekend, I have to start thinking of the BMAF National Open Road Relays at Sutton Park on the 21st May. Here we have to supply a bare minimum of 11 marshals. There are two races, am & pm, so if some marshals can only do one race then potentially I need 22 people.
If any of you that intend to be at Sutton Park but cannot run, then please consider helping out with the marshalling, even if it’s for only one race.
All details on where to sign in etc. will be sent to you beforehand and there will be a subsistence allowance paid. Some marshals will be required to have a radio so that contact can be made with the race start. These are easy to operate, so don’t be afraid!
If you feel that you will be able to help then please contact me by email on mmac.sec@blueyonder.co.uk
The Brueton parkrun goes from strength to strength and is an ideal training spin whatever you are training for! And whatever ability. Those members local to Solihull should take advantage of this free weekly 5k run. You can even walk round with the dog if you wish to. No problems.
Register online, print your personal bar code, bring it along for the 9.00 am start, run/walk, collect place tag, have bar codes scanned and that’s it!!
Results will be available later in the day. Register as a member of MMAC and I will get all your results to post on our ‘parkrun’ page.
