Thanks for your positive comments

Thanks for those who emailled waterfordroadrunners@gmail.com over the weekend! Keep them coming and keep an eye on the blog for regular updates. As you can see from earlier postings we have had a huge first night with over 700 fun runners taking to the streets.

Generally we will update the blog with bits and pieces as they come in but we will have a regular WEP-note, that stands for Wednesday Evening Preparation note, with the most up to date news and reminders for the winter league on the following day. Make a note to check this blog on http://www.waterfordroadrunners.blogspot.com/ every week after 6 pm on Wednesday.

A sample of some of the comments we received are:

"Thanks waterfordroadrunners for a professionally organised event, I'm really motivated. I can't wait for next week!".
WRR says: THANKS.
"Matties hill is a killer on the second lap, I thought 4 miles was going to be easy pizzee after doing the 5.2 mile route last year!"
WRR says: We completely agree; people thought 4 miles might be too short but not so. Fun?
"I can help out next Thursday if you need a marshall or something like that"
WRR says: Big time thanks? Any other takers? Contact us.
"I did the 2 mile route (one lap) and feel I would probably be able to do the 4 mile. Can I move up?"
WRR says: Yes you can. On the week you want to move up (or down perhaps) get to the RSC early and come upstairs and tell us. We will assign you an appropriate new handicap for the change in distance.
"Can I still register for the winter league?"
WRR says: Yes, Waterford Roadrunners will be upstairs at the RSC this Thursday (12th nov) from 4:30 to take new entries so pop in on your way home from work and save queing later.
"I paid for the series, do I still have to que up each week before my run?
WRR says: No, you simply check your handicap online at www.waterfordac.com or trackside on thursday before your run and make your way to the start. You start at the number of minutes after the offical clock start time on display at the start. If we are organised as well as normal we start precisely at 7 pm and so a handicap of zero means you start at 7pm, a handicap of 6 means you start at 7:06 and so on! Once you complete your run the chip in your number will record your time (so don't forget to bring your number!) and you are ready to congratulate yourself and your fellow fun runners on another nights achievement, do a nice gentle warm down, some stretches and thats it.
