New running session - Plyometrics with Andy Harrison
Andy Harrison, one of our running and tri coaches is to lead a plyometrics session on Friday evenings during the summer months. The sessions will be based from the Seymour Centre and will take place in Regents Park and Hyde park, the venue may change from week to week.
Places are limited to 18 and the sessions work as a series of 8 weeks, please book in by emailing Andy (if you know his address) or via andyharrison@serpentine.org.uk (email address in preparation as we speak).
Plyometrics can be quite stressful, so if you have a history of running injuries or have been racing for less than two years please discuss this with Andy first.

John Stonham (1926 - 2008)
The former member John Stonham, whose departure for Thailand inspired the anonymous donation of the John Stonham Farewell Cup, died on 3rd May 2008 at his home in Nong Khai.
His youngest daughter wrote the following to some members that knew him:
"My Daddy wanted to be cremated, and his Thai wife Pin has duly proceeded with his wishes. He also wishes for part of his ashes to be spread down the Mekkong + the rest to return to
UK , to be laid at rest beside his mother at Bloxham Church . My aunt, his sister, Diana Mitchell will be arranging a service for him sometime in June."
I have offered my condolences on behalf of the committee and of the club.
Charles
Hon Secretary

Next Handicap is NOT on first Saturday of Month
The next "June" handicap is on Saturday 31th May, not on June 7th as appeared earlier. This is due to the Royal Parks doing something else with the park on the day we'd normally have it.
