can……….. thanks
Lottery News
In view of the recent bad weather which
has resulted in having had to cancel recent club sessions.
Our very own 3M's Gorseinon chancellor -
The Right Honourable Geoff White, has recognised the fact that people
have had difficulty in paying their lottery money to him, and he has
decided to extend the current 5 week in arrears credit to 10 weeks for
the month of January. From Feb 1st it will revert back to 5 weeks
again.
05/01/2010 15:50:27
No club
session tomorrow (6th Jan 2010)
A decision was made earlier to postpone
Wednesdays track session due to the current weather conditions, and
the fact that temperatures will remain around freezing for the next
few days, probably making the University track too slippery to run on.
Next Wednesdays session (13th Jan) will be
changed to the University track, and we'll continue with the published
training schedule as normal from 20th Jan.
Please pass this message on if you
can……….. thanks

Final Grand Prix 2009 - Swansea Bay
10K
Well done to everyone who took part in the
10K on Sunday.
Producing the Grand Prix results (and the
final Grand prix standings for the year) is proving difficult because
injured/sick runners have given their numbers to other people (not all
of whom are club members).
Some runners have also not entered their
club as '3M Gorseinon Road Runners' .
Paul has sent out a provisional set of
results via email. Please let him know of any mistakes by Mon 5th
October at the latest. If you do not have access to email, please
check your result with Paul or Fay ASAP.
