Kathy’s Session this Thursday

 

Sorry, the location on the Valley Striders website was incorrect, the correct location is on http://www.kenkaiser.co.uk/thursday/

 

Chris Leggatt Memorial 5k on Sunday

 

Final reminder about this race in memory of former Strider Chris Leggatt.  Race is 3pm Sunday from Pool Village Hall.  Details in last week’s V S Update http://valleystriders.org.uk/up130610.htm

 

Yorkshire Vets Race at Leos Tuesday 25 June

 

Firstly confirmation that Richard’s juniors group and Kathy’s beginners group are both ON.  They will start promptly at 6pm as they need to finish early at 6:45pm.  Please park tidily, and also note that it may be a slow exit as cars come in with runners for the Vets race.

 

Secondly confirmation that Holly’s group and the Striders hills group are both off.

 

We now have enough marshals but if we get more then it means that many Valley Striders can run the race.

 

First priority for running will be given to those who come early to set up the course (5pm) or help with car parking (5:45pm).  Just need a couple more at both times.

 

For a list of marshals see http://valleystriders.org.uk/vsmarshals.htm

Many thanks to everyone who has volunteered!!!!

 

Please email [email protected] if you can help, also use the same email if you want to run.

 

Thanks

 

Other dates in June / July

 

There was a long list in the previous V S Update see http://valleystriders.org.uk/up130610.htm

 

Note that there will be lasagne on 2 July, details on the website home page www.valleystriders.org.uk

 

Results

 

Otley Chevin Fell Race (from Steve Webb)

 

Found results for the Otley Chevin race in the Ilkley Gazette.  League updated to include them.  Mick Loftus has stolen a march on Simon Vallance; he and Ross Bibby are the first to secure 5 qualifying races. Dan needs to run a medium or he'll be marooned forever on 4 scoring races like some tragic character from Ancient Greece.  Holly is now on the move with her 100 points from the Chevin.

Roundhay Schools 5k

 

Erica Hiorns emailed “Just to let you know of another Roundhay Schools 5k connection to Valley Striders... In third place was Eddie Hunter, son of Erica Hiorns and Mark Hunter.”  I thought he might be a potential recruit but Erica said Eddie runs with Leeds City.  Never mind!

Staveley Stampede 2013 – race winner Franco Pardini!

 

From the “Staveley Times” www.staveley-yorks.org.uk

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

The Staveley Stampede 10K was held on Sunday 16th June starting and finishing at Staveley Village hall. The rain stayed away as the 138 runners made their way through the nature reserve and the lovely North Yorkshire countryside to a welcome downhill finish over the last mile from Copgrove back to Staveley.

 

The winner was James Franco of Valley Striders in a time of 36:24. The first women runners home was Hannah Oldroyd of Saltaire striders in 38:59.
