Cleveland Way Relays 🏃‍♀️‍➡️🏃‍➡️⛰️ Just another reminder that we have the Cleveland Way Relays on Sunday 13th June. It is a lovely day out and I know that in previous years when we have had a team it’s been a huge success. A reminder: There are 16 legs of the relay, totalling 109 miles. It starts at Filey at 5am (anyone who wants to do this leg, please shout!) and finishes in Helmsley. If you haven’t done this before, you will need to run in a pair for safety reasons. You will also need to do a recce of your route in advance and let us know how long it took you so we can work out timings for each leg. We currently have 11 people who have expressed interest…

Evening, One final reminder to renew your membership if you haven’t already done so and intend too. The way the dates have fallen this year, sees sessions take place on 1st April, one day after this year’s deadline. If you have not renewed your membership but sign up for a session on Tuesday, we will not be insured for you to take part, and we will have to advise you, that you can not take part. There will be no paper copies of membership forms available, so the form needs completing online by COP tomorrow. Thanks https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnff6j1QEqz8XCmz-5C-Ql8imBPyQZqfMKpwF5sTlY3X8iDA/viewform

Hi All, We have had a great number of renewals so far for 2025/26 which is brilliant to see. For those that have not yet done so, there is only a few days left to renew your membership. The form is attached below, and takes 2 minutes (if that!) to fill in. Please make sure if you intend to renew that you do so before 31st March as after that date, you will not longer be considered a member and this group is reviewed and updated accordingly as it is a closed group for members only. You do not need to comment or update anyone that you have filled the form in as Sue will be notified directly. Thank you https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnff6j1QEqz8XCmz-5C-Ql8imBPyQZqfMKpwF5sTlY3X8iDA/viewform  

Early shoutout: Cleveland Way Relays! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ Daniele Meucci and I (Beth Dang) are very happy to be this year’s team managers ☺️ This year’s Cleveland Way Relay is on Sunday 15th June. For those that haven’t done this before, it’s a team relay along the length of the Cleveland Way. Starting at 5am in Filey and ending in Helmsley (hopefully) in time for celebratory chips. You can read more about it here https://www.nym.ac/cleveland-way-relay-info/ There’s 16 legs ranging from 3.5miles to 8.5miles. The shorter distances tend to include the most elevation. Anyone fancy a run up the Three Sisters? This year, runners can run their leg alone if they wish, or in pairs if they feel more comfortable. At least one person on each leg will need to recce their leg…
