NYSD Track and Field Report

Run reports
Tuesday saw round 3 of the Track and Field series at Darlington. The 'Striders Race Publicity Department' (SRPD) had been working overtime in the run up to the event. (It's a big department with 10 full time staff and an annual budget of £250,000) They even went to the trouble of advertising it twice in one day on the website - and for that I'm eternally grateful. So, did it work? Well, joining me was... yes, you've guessed it, Mathew Carling. The ladies? Lucy did give a tantalizing hint she was going to attend, but, like Lloyd, I think she's saving herself for the mile relays. Sadly, all this could mean redundancies in the SRPD.

Important Annoucement 15th May

Training
Tomorrow nights sessions will start from ropner park again NOT the club. This is due to the clubhouse showing the Middlesbrough match which will mean it getting very busy in there before the game.  So all sessions will start from the bandstand at ropner park at 6.30pm. No need to bring any money along with you.  No one will be at the clubhouse so if you’re coming along to run please remember to go to ropner park.  (The sessions will finish in time for you getting home to watch the match as well... don’t worry!) ?
