  1. Gloucestershire County XC Championships

Well done to all 17 TRC Members who ran in the Gloucestershire  Championships on Saturday.  No doubt a comprehensive report from Paul is to follow.

  1. Riverbank Rollick – Sunday 16th January 2022

Race day next Sunday and we have filled all 93 places with helpers. We now have 300 entries. A full schedule of Marshals & Helpers together with a map of the course has gone out to all Members – if you haven’t seen your own copy please contact Arthur Renshaw chairman@thornburyrunningclub.co.uk  (07810 300025) If you are a Marshal please make sure you have spoken to your Team Leader and have arranged to pick up your Marshall bibs and other kit and you know where you have to go. Letters have gone out to all properties & stables etc around the course. We will be at the Castle School sports Centre from 08.30 on Sunday. Race starts at 10.30 with first Finishers back by about 11.25. Any questions see Jo Plumbly Race Director.

  1. Mob Match vs Bitton – Sunday 27th March

The eagle eyed amongst you will have noticed in last weeks ‘Things to Look forward to in 2022’ a mob match vs Bitton on 27th March. This is an away fixture and Bitton are planning the route. Please put this in your diary as we need everyone in the club to join in. As a reminder in a mob match every runner counts toward the final score. Scoring is in descending order, so if for example there are 90 runners, the first person scores 90, second scores 89 down to 90th scoring 1 point. All the points are added up and the team with the most points wins. Simple! As everyone counts there is a big advantage in having more runners out than the opposition. More details to follow and we will be collecting names soon. For now please just put the date in your diary,
