Harry Gamble-Thompson 20Ten - Entrant Information email sent 6:55pm 1st March

Hi %FIRST_NAME% %LAST_NAME%

RACE BIB NUMBER: %BIB_NUMBER%

Thank you for entering the Harry Gamble-Thompson 20Ten. Harry was a long time member and chairman of New Marske Harriers and previously a member of Middlesbrough & Cleveland Harriers. His forte was the the Marathon and other long distance races. He is ranked 12th UK All Time for his 2:32:10 Marathon at London in 1982. Harry passed away on the eve of this race last year - so it is a fitting tribute to him that the race is named in his memory.

At the entrance to the park you can see the Memorial Benches - one for Harry and the other for Jim & Anne Reilly of Redcar Running Club who were long time supporters of athletics and indeed of this event in its early years.

Harry, Jim & Anne between them gave the sport nearly 200 years of service as competitors, technical and club officials. They are much missed.

Please use one of these links word version or pdf version to access details for Sunday's event. Please read carefully - it includes information such as where to park, where and when to collect your number from. Please note there are a few changes from previous years so don't assume

Please visit our partner results site where the race result including your individual mile splits will be available after the race.

Please be aware that a junior parkrun in the park before the race - 9am start. If you have children with you on Sunday, provided they are registered with parkrun they will be able take part.

Finally, if you are unable to run on Sunday and you know someone that you want to use your number then you can transfer the entry - but transfers can only made by emailing me (no charge).

Currently there is a short waiting list, if you wish to transfer to someone on the waiting list I will re-fund your fee less our un-recoverable processing fees.

Finally if you are aware of anyone that is able to marshal for some of the duration - especially from 12 noon then please let me have their contact details.

Coast Road Race Cancellation Info - Email sent 3:30pm 17th March

Due to the coronavirus situation we have no option except to cancel the first two races of the Coast Road Race Series. This is also in accordance with England Athletics updated advice.

Please read the rest of this email carefully so you don’t email me to ask a question that is already answered!

For the avoidance of doubt, the Mermaid 10k (10^th April) and Spring Coast Road 5k (28^th April) are cancelled and will not be re-arranged.

Entries for the Everyone Active 10k (14^th June) and Summer Coast Road 5k (15^th July) have been suspended and will either re-open or be cancelled depending on how the situation develops.

What are we doing with your entry?

The situation is complicated by the fact we have some (most) people that have entered all five races as a series and received a discount whilst others have entered on a race by race basis.

Our default position is to defer your entry to 2021 which means you have a guaranteed place and no further charge. This gives you full value and me least work!

I will refund anyone who emails a request, the amount as per the table below ie the total entry fee paid less the EntryCentral processing charge included in that fee, which we can’t recover.

Those runners that have entered the whole series will need to enter the remaining individual races should we re-open entries. I will email you in advance on a race by race basis ahead of re-opening so that you are best placed to get an entry ahead of others.

Note if you have an entry originally purchased by someone else the refund will be to their card, not yours.

The situation that we all find ourselves in is without precedent but Keep Calm and Keep Washing Your Hands!

Regards

Graham Hall

Chairman, New Marske Harriers
