Commonwealth Games Marathon
 
What a fantastic run by Tracey!  She ran her two half marathons in the race faster than both of the two half marathons leading up to the race.  It seems that she will be one of the few athletes at the Games not to be too disappointed at finishing fourth.  Dan Robinson, being interviewed after he finished third, said he felt in really good form but was pleased that there weren't another 4 or 5 other runners also on good form.  What a shame there were 3 other runners on good form in the women's race.
 
My information is that Tracey, having watched the closing ceremony, is now on a 10 day holiday in Australia before returning to the UK.  Perhaps we can have a pie and peas night to welcome her back.  Or maybe we can do better than that!

Meanwood Trail Recce Run
 
6:30 start for slow group but all welcome - we will go to the start field behind Leo's and then run the one mile loop round the woods to the North of Leos and then come back to Leo's to pick up the others
 
6:45 start for everyone - we will aim for the cricket pavilion and then run very steadily together the one mile plus down to Seven Arches
 
From Seven Arches we'll then split into three groups
 
- slow group return to Leos by reverse route
 
- medium group to go down to Meanwood Park and then return
 
- fast group to do full lap of Meanwood Park and return
 
Help Wanted before the race
 
Is anyone free at 9 a.m. on Friday morning April 7th to take delivery of 4 portaloos being delivered to Leos'.  No previous experience necessary!
 
Is anyone free to do 20 minutes gardening, trimming back a few long briars at the back of the cricket pitch behind the Myrtle?  You'll need a strong pair of secateurs.
 
Meanwood Trail Marshals
 
We still need about 10 more marshals.  Thanks to everyone who has volunteered so far.   This list shows the teams for each section - the next email will have precise marshalling positions and time to meet.    (If you have volunteered and I've missed you off the list, please let me know!)  (If you're on my list and not available, also let me know!)
