Next Tuesday road training session (1 September) is a 5k handicap race
It will use the new Kevin Henry course to be run on the Thursday of the week after so if you want a pre-race trial run this is your chance! I have put handicap times on the FB C&C Endurance runners group page so to avoid duplication please check there or leave a comment below if you are not on Facebook but would like your handicap time in advance of the session. See you Tuesday.

Peterborough 5K News
There is an excellent set of midweek 5Ks in and around Peterborough, drawing some of the best racers of the region, so it's a particularly impressive achievement to take a category win in the five-race series. Huge congratulations therefore to Giulio Cinque for doing just that. The season rounds off with the stand-alone Barney Memorial 5K at Ferry Meadows, and a cluster of C&C quicks (and one not-so-quick) thrashed it round the lakes one last time - check the link for details. Well done all.

"I just want to thank everybody for their cards, good wishes and facebook messages in wishing me well after an untimely heart attack. I am now on the mend and look forward to seeing you all on the 10th at the Kevin Henry home match when I will be offering words of wisdom".

Sahara Challenge
If you fancy participating in this event in March 2016, GLL, the company that manage Parkside & Abbey Pools & Jesus Green Lido are putting together a team. Anyone interested should contact Sarah or Christina at Parkside. The GLL team will be in support of Arthur Rank Hospital Charity, for those with terminal illness. Click here for full details. You can always enter yourself but GLL will help to pay your way. I'm not doing the event but I can put you in touch with appropriate people in GLL before 1st September.

Million mile light
I get lots of promotional stuff as C&C chair and much of it is rubbish. This looks interesting; it's a light which is powered by running - soon to be launched. Might be useful for the long runs on dark nights.
Hi,
I’m Charlie and I run a company called Positively Human with my Husband Tom.
My husband and I are both keen runners and run regularly around our hometown of Malmesbury in Wiltshire.
Inspired by early morning and evening runs, we have designed the Million Mile Light, an ultra bright safety light for runners that uses your motion to create pulses of bright light, to keep you safe while you run the night and to keep you motivated to run as the days grow shorter and the nights draw in. It requires no batteries, lasts for a million miles and keeps you visible to each other as well as vehicles while you run in low light.
We are launching Million Mile Light this summer and thought you and your other running club members would be interested to receive the pre-launch updates and early bird special offers. As well as that, we will be offering bulk pricing for clubs and running events and there will be sponsorship opportunities in the new year.
Please forward this to your members and sign up on www.millionmilelight.com to be part of supporting something that's been designed for you.
If you would like more detailed information about the product or pricing structure prior to the start of the campaign start in August, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Shine bright. Run the night.
With kindest regards
Charlie
