February 2020: Committee meeting update


  • It is proposed that several teams are entered for the Sutton Park Relays on 21st March. All members have received an e-mail encouraging entry.
  • There have been some changes to the committee, a number of members having tendered their resignation. The current men’s captain, Daniel Floyd, is stepping down; the selection of a new captain is presently under discussion.
  • Results of the recent membership survey were presented and discussed. Much positive feedback was received, along with various constructive suggestions for development. Results will be summarized and circulated to members shortly.
  • Communications Team has recently recruited two new members – Richard Newman and Reg Jones – who will mostly be working on social media presence. Weekly runs will continue to be published on Facebook as currently. Members who would like to appear in the regular features are invited to contact Richard, Reg or Maria Browne.
  • Due to the size of Wednesday night groups (particularly C group), more run leaders are required. Any member interested in attending a ‘Leaders in Running Fitness’ course is invited to contact Martin Shortall for more information: mpshortall@btinternet.com
  • The next beginners’ course will start on 26th February; the first session will be a presentation on course format, plus guest speakers. Several members have already offered to help, but further supporters are welcome; please contact Andy Parker: andrewleeparker@gmail.com
