1. Hi-Viz tops and Head Torches

It is now getting quite dark on a Tuesday returning from efforts and on a Thursday after the club run so for safety reasons we would like everyone to wear Hi-Viz tops and carry a head torch.

2. TRC’s next race – Oldbury 10 mile: Sunday 22^nd September 10:30

All the Marshals and the other helpers should now have the e-mail from Adrian with all the details of what you are doing on the day.

3. New TRC Running Kit is here

Scimitar running kit

If you would like to order one of our Scimitar running tops, with our new logo, please use this form which contains photos and details:- https://forms.gle/5HUA56Mi4dGkvbgN6

We have stock available for Short Sleeve and Long Sleeve T-Shirts, Men’s Vests, and Women’s Slouch. In a change to previous announcements we ordered stock of the Long Sleeve T-Shirts which contain reflective seams and tab as these would make a great winter training top.  

Linela clothing

Requested items for non-running clothing comprising of jackets, hoodies, and track pants should be available later this month.There has been a delay as Linela have been busy getting all the children ready for the back-to-school. We will send you an email when the stock is available for collection.

4. A Group to organise Social activities for the Club

We now have a group Leader but are still looking for a small Team of 2 or 3 people to organise some social functions including the Annual Dinner and other social activities. If you are interested in helping please make yourself known to Matt Johnstone or any Committee Member.

6. New Beginners Course

The Introduction to Running Course has been a great way for the Club to support people who are keen to start running, promote running in the local community and attract new members. We need your help please. The next Introduction to Running Course is taking place over 9 weeks on Wednesdays from 16^th Oct to 11^th Dec at 6:45pm from TLC car park. If you are able to support the next course on 2 or 3 evenings that would be great. We need 2 or 3 people each week. Your support is very much appreciated. Please complete the Google form below to let me know the dates you can do. Please can you also share the advert and link which has been sent to all WhatsApp groups to encourage people to sign up for the course.
