Introducing our new Spring / Summer Grand Prix for 2020!
The Grand Prix is designed to give everyone some motivation over the coming months and generate some friendly competition. Winners and prizes awarded at the Summer party. Full details on the website: https://www.sefitness.com/events-courses/spring-summer-2020/
Please don’t assume this is just for the ‘faster’ runners because with extra points for ‘First’s and for ‘Improving’ our newer runners have lots of advantages! There are also points for other things like volunteering and for entering the #sefitnessvestchallenge.
There’s plenty to have a go at to suit all types of runner so please join in for fun, to challenge yourself or to really go for it and win!
