Hi,
See below details for this week of sessions.
🔔🔔🧑🎄🎅Annual Jingle Bells Run 🎅🧑🎄🔔🔔 – Thursday 12th December
Our annual jingle bell run will be this Thursday (12th December at 7pm). Meet outside The Nightingale , Langford Village, at 6.50pm fully decked in your finest festive outfits; with extra lights (it makes the ‘elf and safety people happy when we are all highly visable!)
We will then explore the bright lights of Bicester in one big group on a slower (so layers please if it’s particularly cold), chatty, festive adventure.
Obviously we’ll need to warm back up so we will head back to the Nightingale for a defrost and festive tipple, from about 8pm, for those who just want to join for a Christmas drink after.
Friends, newcomers all welcome. No PB’s!
There’ll be no meet up at the Sports Centre but will be back there on the 19th.
Please respond either via Spond, the event on Facebook or email social@alchesterrunningclub.co.uk know if you are going so that the team can confirm number.
Tuesday session – shorter reps mash up
⏰19:00 at Gavray Drive – meet at the railway end
🏃🏃♀️everyone welcome
🤷♂️ 3 sets of out – 3 x 300 & 3 sets of back 400:300:200 all with 30 seconds rest
💡 Thursday session 💡- JINGLE BELLS RUN – see above
County Cross Country & January Oxfordshire League – Horspath (05Jan25)
If you are wanting to enter the league & compete for Alchester from January onwards then the deadline is THIS THURSDAY to update the link pay £12 to the club who will then pay your entry fee. All else fails just reply to this.
If you do not wish to compete in the league but want to run in the county championship as a one off this forms part of the Horspath race & again the deadline is again THIS THURSDAY by reply to this email. Cost for this sole race is £5 but your position will only count in the county race & won’t earn points for the club in the league. Again pay the club who will then make a bulk payment. If you’ve already entered the league you dont need to do anything.
If you’ve already entered the league you don’t need to do anything!
If none of this makes sense speak to Alasdair, Simon or reply to the email asap. There was an update last year about county champs & changes for 2024 (there’s a phd available for understanding them!).
Please do not put anything up on Facebook about wanting to enter as it may not be seen. Reply to the email only & remember no pay, no play policy in place.
Race times are 11:20 for the men & 12 noon for the ladies with distances about 9k.
Clear as the mud you’ll be running through? Just shout.
Thanks
The x ctry gang
