I'm 'organising' the race (ie claiming the credit) this year in conjunction with Buxton Roatary (who've actually done all the work).
Rotary have generously provided enough people to man the controls, dish out drinks and man the registration, finish, and tea / cake section, which is much appreciated.
So if you want to run, then run, (though see * below)
However i'm still after a few 'volunteers'.
1. I need one or ideally two sweep runners, who can follow the last runners and check at each checkpoint that everyone is accounted for.
2. In addition, we 'may' need to send out someone to find / retrieve (in a car) any strays who might have made thir way to Whaley or somewhere else well off the route. (from experience if the sweep do this then they never catch up.)
3. We could do with at least 2 people who are first aid qualified.
4. I could do with someone to put the results on the computer - this could be someone who races if they finish 'well up'. It's pretty straightforward, even I can manage it.
5. We're marking the course Saturday 10th, at a steady pace, so if you want to join us for that please let me know.
If you don't want to run, and can help, it'd be much appreciated, thanks muchly .
*If you do run, save a bit of energy for after the finish, because if I see you loafing about on the grass I'll give you a job, which could be results running, filling up the water containers, or just fetching me a cup of tea. And if you're looking particularly chipper at the end, it could be you that has to fetch the lost runner from Whaley Bridge.
