Hi Woodies,
Here’s a brief update of events coming up:
1. C2S Internal team competition
As it is under a month away and as you have all entered the City2Surf by now (and the respective Woodstock teams), it is time to now put your estimated finishing time forward for the club’s Internal Teams competition. For those of you that are new members, this is a friendly competition where some great prizes (movie tix, wine, beer!) can be won and doesn’t cost anything to enter.
To be part of this competition, please forward your estimated finishing time (h:mm:ss) for the race to Brendan. Remember it is 14km and the time to put forward is your Chip Time, not your gun time so it is from the time you cross the starting mat to the time you cross the finishing mat. This is open to all members running or walking and you don’t need to run in Woodstock uniform to be a part of this (although we strongly encourage you too!) You will be randomly put in a team, making teams of similar total times and gender makeup, and the teams with the closest collective time to their estimated times win prizes.
You can email your time to bjdavies2000@yahoo.com, post it on the club’s facebook page or just pass it onto a committee member.
Safe training,
Brendan Davies, Teams Coordinator

2. Handicap 14/7/2012
The 2012 Handicap Series continues this Saturday (14/7/2012). It starts from 7:30am sharp near the normal Brett Park run, with runners & walkers handicapped according to pace. The entry fee is only $2, with the usual “lucky place” prize of a pair of movie tickets.
Entrants nominate their own time. However, to be fair to all entrants:
– Anyone beating their time by more than one minute will be disqualified.
– Watches are not permitted, to prevent “staged” finishes.
The best three events for each member count towards the 2012 Pointscore Awards. The points basis is very simple – 1 point for last, 2 points for second last, etc. The registration list will be available on Tuesday 10/7/2012 To register your time, or you can phone me on 9680 7476 or 0413 484 053 (or SMS) with your time, or by email on colin_townsend@optusnet.com.au or tell Martin at TNT.
All time estimates are required by 8:00pm 12 July (Thursday night), so that the start can proceed without interruptions. No registrations on the day.
The free BBQ breakfast will be on once again, please bring along any interested non-members, so they can try us out. Membership Forms will be available on the morning, or they can join online.
