New season – new course
For the 2020/21 we will be using a new course. This course will start and finish at the bottom gate between the tennis courts. This gate is normally locked but will be unlocked specifically for our run.
The course follows roughly the same route as the old one however you will now turn left from Chiltern Drive onto The Crest and then right onto The Byeways. The course has been measured at 3 miles long.

Notes from organisers…
Due to the ongoing Covid situation, water will not be provided at the event. Athletes should bring their own water bottles and leave them in their team areas during the race. Please maintain social distancing at all times and listen carefully to instructions provided by marshals, especially in relation to leg handovers. We will call numbers as athletes are approaching the start/finish area and it is the responsibility of each team to ensure their next runner is ready. All other members of the team and spectators should keep away from the start/finish area and maintain social distancing.

Event: Epsom and Ewell Harriers 3km Relays
Venue: Nonsuch Park
Type: Team Relay (4 legs)
Date: Tuesday 6th July
Time: 7pm start
Entry deadline is Friday 25th June.
Full details available here: EEH 3Km Relay Race
Our Wednesday training session this week will be a StreetO event. This is an orienteering game where you get a line map of the local area and have an hour to use it to hunt for post boxes. The map is simple to follow and post boxes easy to find.
You can run alone or in groups. The more post boxes you find, the more points you receive. Some post boxes are worth more points so chose your route carefully. Make sure you return to the start before the end of the hour otherwise you will get a time penalty.
More detailed instructions are here: >>> StreetO Instructions <<<
The event is open to all. Please do not worry if you have not tried this before, we will be able to give more detailed instructions and help you with the maps.
You will need a pen to write down your results!
