Wolverhampton Half Marathon 2nd September 2012

Picture

Hi folks,

We are again entering teams in this year's Wolverhampton Half Marathon Relay Challenge so, if you're not doing the full marathon, half-marathon or cycle event as an individual, why not join us.  It's on Sunday morning on the 2nd September, starting and finishing at West Park, Wolverhampton.

Each team consists of 5 members and the relay legs vary between 2.5 miles and 3.25 miles. The entry fee is approximately £8.50 per person, and everyone who takes part receives the marathon event T shirt and medal, and the satisfaction of knowing that all race profits are donated to various local charities.

Each team will be a mixture of experienced runners and new runners from this year's beginners course, so don't worry if you haven't taken part in a race before. (Although our "fast men" might wish to enter a "competitive" team?) Also, it's meant to be a bit of fun, so don't be put off entering by thinking you might not be fast enough yet to take part in a race, or letting team mates down.

Suggestions for team names would also be appreciated, using the club's initials (DK). eg. "DK's Dodgy Kittens" or "DK's Dangerous Kats" - the final team names will be picked at random from a hat.

The closing date for the Relays is the 25th August, so let us know as soon as possible if you are interested or require more information.  Also, last year we had a few non-DK runners taking part, and if you have a friend you run with who would also be interested in running as part of a team then that will be fine.

Ingrid Cain is away on holiday for the next two weeks and in her absence please see or email me, Preston Grundy, or John Glover, but when she returns from holiday than please see or email Ingrid Cain. (Our email details are as above)

Initially we will just need your name, email address, and mobile number if you have one, so we can keep in touch with you.

Happy Training and Best regards
