Newsletter #6 - July 2018

Welcome

The winter mornings are still very chilly. Morning temperatures of zero degrees and below are common in the Vaal Triangle but there is nothing like an early morning run to warm you up (followed with a hot shower and a cup of coffee). Keep warm and healthy!!

 

News from Athletics Vaal Triangle (AVT)

Please note that Vaal Athletics Club unfortunately is unable to present the Midvaal Half Marathon on 29th September 2018 due to financial constraints and therefor the race will NOT take place this year – Steve Jackson.

 

Also take note that the AVT office will be closed on the 24 July – 26 July. If Club administrators need provincial licenses, they will have to come to the office this week.

Office Hours – Tuesdays – Thursdays 12h00 – 15h00.

Make an appointment before you come. I’m not always in the office during office hours – Malie v/d Walt.

Time trials

Please wear reflecting gear during time trials as the street lights are not working. Time trials are the place to be on a Tuesday afternoon at 17:15 (May, June, July & August) at the club house. This is where you get all information regarding events and other issues and you can meet other members (running and non-running) and where you can compete against yourself as we record you time. The results are also published on our national web site at http://www.nedbankrunningclub.co.za/

(Click on Events, Time Trial Results and choose the Nedbank Running Club Vanderbijlpark Logo. There you will see all the results. Click on the event that you want, and it will be downloaded where you can open it in Excel).
