Friday 29 June 2018 – Red Kite Social Run
29 June 2018 – ‘Come Fly your Kite’ Social Run – Apologies for the name this is the best Mike Swainson could come up with at short notice :)
This run replaces the very popular run down to Gibside that are normally held but due to changes within Gibside NT these are no longer possible, without incurring an entry fee into the grounds.
The plan is to meet at Ebchester Station for a 6.30pm start and continuing down the line to the Red Kite Pub in Winlaton. The run is very social and will be at your own pace, no one will get left behind, and it is also a great way to meet other members. Food (and alcohol) is available to purchase at the Red Kite. You must arrange your own transport back from Winlaton. For any further information please contact Mike Swainson
Yes …. there’s a bus on ….. Blaydon Bus – BUS IS NOW FULL
A bus has been arranged to transport runners to and from Blaydon Race. The bus will leave Ponds Court (next to McDonalds) at 1.15pm prompt and drop runners at the start. The bus will return as soon as the last runner is on the bus, approximately 4.45pm (ish). Seats are £5 per person, money must be transferred into the Bounders account to confirm your seat. Names to Amanda please at mandums@Hotmail.com . We need names as soon as possible so that suitable bus sizes can be confirmed.
