Jenny Wood Allan Races & Sport Relief Mile

Sunday, 25th March - Camperdown Park, Dundee; Jenny Wood Allan Races & Sport Relief Mile
Jenny was one of the best ambassadors and most inspirational people Dundee has ever produced - and on so many levels too.
Jenny passed away in December 2010, not far short of her centenary.
In the interval and with full approval of her family, a committee headed up by Ms Alex Knight of Dundee Leisure & Culture and assisted by many of Jenny's friends from the running community, have put together a celebration of Jenny's life in the form of a 6 mile, 3 mile and 1 mile running event in conjunction with the Sport Relief Mile.
This is to be an anuual event which will help raise money for charities dear to Jenny.
Ron McIntosh and myself along with others from the local running community have been at some of the planning meetings on behalf of the Hawkhill Harriers.
The organising committee are now looking for volunteers to help on the day with stewarding, marshalling, goody bags etc and have asked Dundee Hawkhill Harriers [& others] for help.
Can you help? Depending on what you end up doing, you'd be required from about 9am until early afternoon. Fuller details will be issued in due course. Any volunteers under the age of 16 would require to be with a responsible adult on the day. Obviously, some tasks will be suited to youngsters but not others e.g. with handing out goody bags at one end of the spectrum and supervising car parking at the other.
If you can volunteer to help out on Sunday 25th March, please get in touch with me as soon as possible, thanks.
Phil Forte (Secretary)

Devils Burden Relays

Come on now, don't be shy.....there must be a few stories out there. Whose going to file a report?? 

 

Scottish Athletics: 'Read and React'

Extract of a communiqué from Peter Jardine of Scottish Athletics:

I hope by now you will be aware of my appointment as the Communications Manager with Scottish Athletics. I joined at the end of November and it has been a steep learning curve after 14 years as a football writer with the Scottish Daily Mail...My role in all of that is both communication within the sport and trying to generate more widespread coverage in the Scottish media. That is by no means easy but London 2012 and Glasgow 2014 give us a better chance …To that end, we have significantly increased the number of stories on the website www.scottishathletics.org.uk and the activity on our Facebook page. In a very short period of time here I have come to realise the stories are ‘out there’ – we just need to source them, report them and/or promote them to wider audiences.  We recently posted 60 pictures of last year’s National Indoor Open on Facebook and it ‘reached’ 535 people – entries are up for the Kelvin Hall this year by more than 100. As it stands,  we have 1600 Facebook users and more than 8000 members of scottishathletics and I am keen to keep driving  those figures upwards.  I would like you therefore, if and where possible, to post a link to the website on your own club website and an appeal for people to read and react. (Won't be too hard to find I suspect on the Facebook).
