Re-run of NB15 km for Volunteers

Dear Fellow Runners and Friends,

I am embarking on a new initiative relating to running. However, it competes with my limited time for blogging. As such, I would have to slow down on my postings for duration of 2 to 3 weeks. When the time is right, I will be full throttle ahead again.

Meantime, if you have any interesting articles on running that you would like to share with other runners, do send emails to me and I will publish them for you… by KC

Re-run of NB15

This is a great idea. There will be a similar re-run this Sunday morning, 28 May that modelled the New Balance 15km Run. This is a fun run and non-competitive in nature. The main purpose is to cater for volunteers that have missed The Run when they served other runners diligently last Sunday. As I understand from Jenny Lim, assigned to stage this mini event, a few runners volunteered to assist. This is the true spirit of running – first, the volunteers help runners; now runners help volunteers in return.

Details:
Date: Sunday, 28 May 2006
Start Time: 7am
Start Venue: Padang Merbuk car park (at the finishing spot of NB15 Run last Sunday)
Course: Similar route as New Balance 15km Run

There will be two main groups of runners this Sunday: the volunteers and registered participants who missed last Sunday's run. Running friends are welcome too.

Finisher Medals:
Only volunteers and registered participants would receive finisher medal at the finishing line.

Certificates:
There would be no certificates issued

Refreshment:
Only bottled water in 500 ml size would be served in its original form (meaning not using cups); there will be no isotonic drinks. According to Jenny Lim, the Club allocated 9 crates of bottled water that can comfortably cater for 70 runners.

So, see you this Sunday.
