How Our Mornings Work
-
Your Number Matters: Think of your bib as your ticket! Please make sure itâs visible so our timekeepers can record your finish. If you lose yours, just come say hi and weâll get you sorted.
-
Visit the Scribes: Before you head off for a post-run swim, please stop by the scribe desk so we can record your time accurately. (We want to keep Norm happy this year!)
-
Check the Board: Handicaps can change each week, so keep an eye on the main board. If you canât find your name, donât worryâwe have a “magic folder” with all the history we need to find you.
-
Lucky Dips: We hold a draw every week! Youâve got to be there in person to claim your prize, so stick around for the fun.
Lending a Hand
Our Sunday mornings only happen because of our wonderful volunteers. Itâs a great way to stay involvedâyou can even volunteer and still get your run in by arriving a bit early! Plus, youâll earn 8 points toward the season total just for helping out.
