This Tuesday, 4th December, the annual Charity Mile will take place. This year it will be in aid of the Seashore Centre, the children's department at Weston General. The princely sum of £1 to take part and as usual the club will match what is made on the evening. It will be the usual meeting place on a Tuesday for a good warm-up. Hope to see as many of you as possible taking on the challenge of a mile. Many thanks JT.

Weston AC nail the Knoll

Conditions were good, if a little soggy underfoot in places. This set the pace fast from the start and enabled many of the club’s members to achieve their quickest times for the race... Read more

Please extend a warm welcome to new club members Richard Packer and Logan Harvey.

Dear member,

The first draft Christmas Cracker Allocations is now ready for you to review – it is surname alphabetical order.

Many of you will have more than one job so please read the document carefully to fully understand where and what you have been allocated. The document lays out a title for a role – some are self explanatory, some not so and exact details of what is expected of you on the day will be explained to you by the person you report to.

We have tried very hard to accommodate everyone’s requests in terms of the tasks they have been allocated.

A few people are currently listed as “spare” – this is so we have options on the day if anyone is not able to attend at last minute I.e. due to illness.

A final allocation list will be posted Friday 7th December at the latest. PLEASE ENSURE YOU READ THE FINAL DOCUMENT AS THE ALLOCATIONS WILL BE WHERE YOU WILL BE EXPECTED TO BE AT THE GIVEN TIMES.

If upon checking the list, your name does not appear when you expect it to then please email Kim and Annette via the following email address: kandarunning@gmail.com before Monday 3rd December 2018.

Yours in running, Annette and Kim.

Listen-up Team Yellow. We need you. We need ALL of you.

Kim and Annette have been beavering away sorting out who will be doing what at this year’s Cracker.

The race takes place four weeks today, but we are 50 volunteers short - and our club is bigger than ever - with lots of people still needing to complete the volunteering survey.

So please, if you haven’t filled it in yet, please do it now.

Organising the race takes loads of pre-planning so it’s really helpful if we can allocate roles ASAP.

Thank you 🙏🏼🎅🏼

Please extend a warm welcome to new club members Kevin Bale, Callum Smith, Graham Brooks, Stephanie Brooks and Julian Hanson.

Your club needs you.
If you haven’t done it yet, please fill in the Cracker volunteering survey so Kim and Annette know what duties you want to do on race day.

It’ll take no more than five minutes, so do it now.

Take the survey

And remember, as a Cracker volunteer, you get:

✅ to run the Not Cracker in fancy dress
✅ brekky @ The Bay café after the Not Cracker
✅ hot refreshments on race day
✅ race t-shirt.
