21-05-13 - 14-07-13 Dear Club Secretary, The 2013 Dartford Half Marathon is to be held on Sunday 14th July, commencing at 09:00am in the Central Park athletics arena, the home of Dartford Harriers AC (the race organisers). The race is fully licenced and the organisers have again applied for Gold Standard status. The Dartford Half Marathon has grown in reputation year-on-year and in 2012, the field size exceeded 850. At the time of writing, the number of entries received stands at almost double that at the same time last year. The route is largely on-road but also partly on variable terrain, including some off-road. This makes it a suitable course for both experienced runners, and runners seeking their first attempt at racing over this distance. Please would you kindly consider forwarding this message to your members, to encourage them to enter this prestigious race. The Entry Form and essential Race Information are on the Dartford Harriers AC web site: www.dartfordharriersac.co.uk  and enquiries can be addressed to a dedicated DHM email address: dartfordhalf@dartfordharriersac.co.uk . Thank you for your consideration, and we hope to see large numbers of your club’s vest (and your members running in them!) on 14th July. With thanks and regards. 2013 Dartford Half Marathon Race Entry Coordinator on behalf of Dartford Harriers AC

 

5-04-13 - 29-06-13 Hi there, My name’s Paul Shack and I’m organising an event later this year (June) which might of interest to your members. It’s called the Great British Relay and we aim to break the world record. Last year I was part of the Real Relay which ran the entire route of the Olympic torch prior to the games; I did two stages, Thirsk to Northallerton and Ilkley to Headingley (there are some embarrassing photos of me with the baton at Kirkstall Abbey!) I thought it was one of the best things I have ever done and so in an attempt to recreate that experience and get a world record as well I’ve set up The Great British Relay. The world record for the longest continuous run relay currently stands at 5640km; we’re going to do over 7000km. I’m letting as many running clubs as possible know so they can be represented if they want to join in. Our official charity is Sue Ryder but participants can raise money for whatever charity they choose The website is www.greatbritishrelay.com  and the facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/pages/Great-British-Relay/135316153307626 . If you could share the pages, that would be a massive help! I hope you don’t mind me getting in touch like this. All the best and good running!
