Serpentine 1 mile races – Tuesday, 14 June

Runner in Hyde Park

The first of the Club Championship Grand Prix races is a coming soon – the 1 mile.

Date: Tuesday, 14 June 2011
Time: Registration from 7pm, races start at 7:30pm. You must have registered by 7:20pm.
Venue: Willesden Sports Centre
Must remember: Serpentine race vest/top, membership card and trainers.

Post race refreshment venue tbc.

NO ENTRY FEE – it's free to run.
Please sign up on the My Events planner if you intend to run to help us plan the race groups – www.serpentine.org.uk/events/planner.php

There will be several races at the 1-mile Championships. These will be graded on your ability.  Please have a think about what time you can run 1 mile in.  Having graded races means that you will be able to race against people of similar ability, so whether you are running at sub-5 minute pace or plus 10 minutes there will be a race that's right for you!

It will be good to see more Serpentine women taking part, so that we can have at least two women's races.

If you aren't running but would like to spectate and support, there's a large covered stand. I need a few people to help on the night so if you're coming along do let me know – it's a fun evening and an easy way to help the club out.

If you've not been to Willesden Sports Centre before, you'll find a map and travel info on http://www.serpentine.org.uk/pages/location_willesden.html  You'll find the track and changing rooms are at first floor level.

Please bring your Serpentine membership card with you to show at the Sports Centre reception desk and to help at registration.

To count for club championship competitions you must:

  1. Be a first claim member of Serpentine Running Club
  2. Compete wearing club colours
