    Junior Flyers sign off at the end of the 2010 Summer School

     

    2010-2011 Cross Country Programme

    We will have a summer break after the BBQ (on Tuesday 6th July at 6:30pm) and get back together in the autumn.

    As the days are shorter in the autumn we will switch to Saturday mornings at 9am in Ampthill Park. Hopefully as many as possible of you will be able to join these sessions.

    We realise that by switching to Saturday some of you may not be able to join as you have other commitments but we have thought long and hard about this and without a floodlit track to run safely in the evenings we feel that Saturday in the park is the best option; it also fits with the Chiltern League races that are at lunchtimes on Saturday.

    During the autumn we will continue to develop the running techniques that we have worked upon during the summer and put more emphasis on endurance to build towards competing in the Chiltern Cross Country League. We joined this league last year and found it a very positive experience; almost everyone joined in the races and did very well. Whatever your ability we will encourage you to help you do your best. Our first race will be organised by the Flyers in Ampthill park, so a chance to try a local race before the start of the league races
