LOG’s first race will be the week after, Wednesday 12th August, in Washingborough village, with entry online entries available here until midnight on Sunday 9th August. Please note that there is NO entry on the day. The event page is here.
1) The final club training sessions before the start of the LUL will be running out from the University car park opposite Toys R Us, next Thursday 30th July, 6-7pm. It will be an urban session, so normal running kit, plus a compass, is required.
2) Please email Paul (pmmurgatroyd@aol.com), before the day of the session, to let him know you’re interested and he’ll put you on the list – first come, first served. We can take up to 12 next week and once we’re full, he’ll stick you on the reserve list and then let you know if anyone drops out beforehand. Any reserves will get first option on the following week’s session.
3) There will be a supply of extra maps for anyone who wants to come along at either 6pm or 7pm, to have a solo training session, so let Paul know if you’d prefer this.
4) Paul will make the session available as a PDF and can email this across to you, if you wanted to run it at another more convenient time for yourself. Let him know if you want a copy (pmmurgatroyd@aol.com)
The sign-up is open!
Paul Murgatroyd has been named as British Orienteering Coach of the Year. In making the award, England Development Manager Peter Brooke stated, :
“Across the country, there is a tremendous amount of hard work and effort done by clubs and volunteers to make orienteering happen. British Orienteering certainly appreciates and recognises all this commitment, time and effort that goes into our sport from all our volunteers.
Paul’s recognition is well deserved for the tremendous amount of hard works he’s put in for the benefit of others.”
Congratulations to Paul on his well-deserved award.
Following the advice from British Orienteering, all events and activities have been suspended. You can see the full update from British Orienteering here.
