MoscowFlyer Nov 2008 9:02pm, 11 Nov 2008 705 posts	Quote Pin MoscowFlyer Ok, it's about time we had a Surrey mile, mainly so I can attend There is a track here in Walton-on-Thames, it's 25 minutes on a direct line from Waterloo and easy access from the Guildford area, then it's a five minute jog to the start. I have this evening had a word with the person involved in the hiring of it, he says I can have the track for the event, the cost will be £2.50 per person. It has to be a Sunday afternoon though as Walton & Hersham FC use it on Saturdays and the athletics club use it on Sunday afternoons. So, if there's enough interest, its simply a case of coming up with a date that everyone can agree on. I was thinking of maybe doing it early in the new year, say around the 11th or 18th January? I'm open to suggestions though, and having never organised anything like this, I would appreciate any input as to how to make it a success. I gave him a rough number of 20 people as a starting point.

MoscowFlyer Nov 2008 9:09pm, 11 Nov 2008 707 posts	Quote Pin MoscowFlyer If it turns out that February is easier, then we'll make it February. January may not be ideal for everyone, and late December is a bit too soon to get it all organised. The majority will rule, so feel free to suggest alternative dates.
