Virtual 5k training race – Thursday 9th April

This Thursday 9 April should have been the first 5K Training Race of the year.

Instead we are going to hold the race virtually.

On Thursday (anytime of day), use can use your permitted period of exercise to blast out a fairly accurate 5K; it can be from home, round the actual 5K route, the woods, anywhere permitted under government guidelines. It must be on Thursday though, so our weather conditions are similar.

Then send your time (minutes & seconds) and date of birth to gavin.collett@jti.com by 8pm that day and I’ll produce a “race” result on Friday. There is no need to send me any proof, description of course or links to any others site such as Garmin, Strava, I won’t open them. I trust you all, you’re upstanding members of Hillingdon AC. Please also indicate if you have walked the whole way with no running at all.

Any ages, any speed for members, friends and family of Hillingdon AC. Please spread the word.

Also a reminder there is an 8pm clap that night for all key workers (especially our brave members in the NHS, our thoughts are with you), then a quiz hosted by Ellie Henderson on the club’s facebook page at approx. 8.10pm.

Stay safe everyone, miss you all.
