Striders line up for a 5k race along the seafront
The first 5k race for our Couch to 5k group will be Saturday 13th May. We will aim to run in groups with a Strider to act as pacer and encourage you around. This race will be the Preston Park Parkrun in Brighton and the race will commence at 9.00am, so please arrive early to give time to meet and warm-up.
Other members of the Seaford Striders will also be taking part, so we are hoping they will be on hand to encourage you all as well.
It is free to enter ParkRuns BUT please register on-line before your first one. You only ever need to register once – you will be given a unique barcode, which you will need to print off and bring with you. To do so please follow the link: www.parkrun.org.uk/prestonpark/
Don’t forget to bring a printed copy of your barcode (request a reminder). Phones don’t scan, so please bring a printed copy. The aim is to have fun. Please come along and join in whatever your pace!
If anyone needs a lift, do let a Strider know on a Monday or Wednesday evening and we’ll do our best to sort one for you.
Note: The Couch to 5k on 13 May is also a Club Grand Prix race, so come along, cheer on the group and get some points in the process.
