So the time has come for the final NYSD Track and Field of the season.
We have had lots of interest from quite a few Striders for the NYSD this Tuesday 11th July at Middlesbrough Atheltics Village, Alan Peacock Way, TS4 3AE.
We are hoping to get a wash of green and blue vests and yellow t-shirts at the final event and make the season go out with a bang! Any abilities are welcome and the event is based on fun, good laughs and time spent with Striders (couldn’t think of a better combination!). Please come along and give it a go. All events are in heats for the track and most of us go in the final heat, so don’t worry!
We have had some brilliant feedback from people such as “I would seriously recommend it. It was just good fun and well organised, without pressure. I did the high jump as well! I would never have tried that. There was 4 out of the 10 of us that had never done it before. All just taking it turns to knock the bar over”
The events on offer this week:
Track:
18.30 800m
18.40 100m
20.05 5000m (5k)
Field:
18.10 Hammer
19.45 Shot
20.05 Long Jump
If you fancy coming along and giving it a go, you won’t be disappointed! Katie and Paul will be in the stands (just keep a look out). If you haven’t come along before can you try to arrive 15 minutes before the event you are planning to do so that you can be given a number. Club tshirts or vests must be worn and please bring 8 safety pins with you for applying your number front and back. You can come and go as you please to these events and do as little or as many as you like.
Hope to see many Striders turn out for this last event!
