The course is on 22nd March - although I think the emphasis of this will be around results interpretation (i.e. what counts as a torso) rather than the handling of the kit. Some practice in handling of the kit could come before or after the course. It's quite involved (laptop, specialised camera, transducer for the starting gun, wireless transmitter/receiver for the transducer, capture button and some not very friendly software). I think the club is looking to use hire of the timing kit as a source of revenue - but if we could frame things as a trial then I suspect the cost of the hire might just balance out Glenners' and Nellers' testing fees, give or take a slice of cake. No promises - but I'll explore with the powers that be if and when a date firms up. |

For the greater good I guess we could donate our fees to the equipment hire. It's a sacrifice but we all have to do our bit in these times of austerity, don't we?;-)

late spring/early summer mile to be of use to those wanting to practice with the kit ? or does that get messy with everyone's spring marathons?

what we really need is a new year busway mile, followed by beer and chips at the pub (happy to scrap the mile if it's too cold/icy/much hard work)

Directed at Rosehip, but applies to the Busway mile too.

Not easy finding a date when the track is free and fits my calendar - let alone anyone else's ! atm there is: April 4th or 18th (too close to VMLM?) May 2 (BH weekend,/ MK marathon) May 23 ( soon after Windermere and Halstead) June 13 - Nothing is ever simple is it? Busway new year mile sounds fun too |

I ended up starting a parkrun after the last Busway Mile. Be warned.
