How to enter the 2012 WCR
The one you've been waiting for? The following email been dispatched by Richard to those who've taken part or expressed interest in the WCR. Good luck everyone and thanks for your support.
Note also that we have a new WCR team member - Amanda Thompson - who's boldy agreed to take on the role of WCR Race Registrar. Amanda is a relatively new but very enthusiastic member of Les Croups and we are so grateful for her help in managing the 2012 WCR. Please co-operate with her at every stage of the application and registration process...
Dear Fellow Runner
Happy New Year. I am sure this is the email you have all been waiting for, just to encourage you and your colleagues to pick up your training after the festive period!
I attach details and an entry form for the 30th Welsh Castles Relay 2012 (available as a word document and a pdf). The race, a highlight in the running calendar, will take place this year on Saturday and Sunday, 9th and 10th June, 2012. At this stage, this is obviously subject to (i) confirmation of sponsorship, (ii) relevant permissions being granted, (iii) any other unforeseen circumstances.
Please return the application form to Amanda Thompson, WCR Race Registrar (contact details: 189 Mackintosh Place, Roath, Cardiff CF24 4RP; tel: 07929001048; email: amjanette@virginmedia.com) by Friday 9th March at the very latest with the appropriate fee (£350 for Club entries and £575 for Business Houses).
Please read the Entry and Race Rules carefully; there are no changes this year. Note that veterans are females/males aged 35 or over on race day.
We will let you know if your application has been successful by mid-March.
Good luck and we hope to see you in June.
With all best wishes for 2012.
Richard Brewer
Race Co-ordinator
