Transfan – Chris Jones from MDC has asked me to publicize this w/e. He says: “We are running the Transfan weekend 19/20 Sept. We also have the hostel and space for camping in Llanddeusant booked out for a bit of a social afterwards – so this year will be a reverse run. All welcome to both parts so please spread the word in Eryri. A very basic website here http://mdcwales.blogspot.co.
The Fabian4 Dyffryn Conwy Mountain Challenge takes place on 13th Sept. This is a non-profit making event with the proceeds being donated to the Snowdonia Society, whose work benefits us all. This year, we are offering the Duathlon option (fell run & MTB leg), as well as the usual Triathlon which can be entered by teams of 3 or individuals. There must be many handy mountain bikers in Eryri Harriers….! See http://www.map17events.org.uk/
We have had very few takers for the free first aid course, therefore, we are offering it to all members on a first come first served basis, whether or not they are race organisers or regular marshals. Any takers would be required to marshal at at least 1 club race in return for being able to go on a FOC course.
There are still many members who haven’t collected their new, FOC vests. We said they needed to be collected at the TES races, of which there’s only 1 remaining, so next Tues is intended to be the mega dealing out of vests session at the Heights after the race! Any members who haven’t collected their vests by then will have to make arrangements to meet Ellie at another race. We won’t post these vests unless members live away.
Training sessions for Juniors are on Sunday mornings from the fire station in Llanberis.
0930 -1030 for those aged 9 up
1045-1200 for old / more experienced runners
New members always welcome. Cost £2 a session, just turn up.
Further info available from Paul on 07787578401
Please note there will not be a session on the 9th Aug, 16th Aug and the 6th Sept.
Two sessions in September will be on a Saturday instead – 12th and 27th September

John Spill followed up his debut Penrhyn Parkrun win last Saturday with a debut win at the Conwy Parkrun this Saturday 20th June in a time of 16:36, 49secs clear of the 2nd placed runner. In 4th place was Paul Jones 18:53. 7th John’s U/13 brother Mike 19:43 and 52nd Don Williams 25:42. There were 166 finishers in what was a rather wet and soggy event!
