General criteria / Risk Assessments
Before the departure of each running group we will complete a register of those taking part. This will be done as a booking system on facebook as a first come first served basis.
Once a group is up to a maximum of 6 runners (including a run leader) you may not be able to run. This is to assist in track and trace procedures in the event of a runner contracting Covid-19.
If you are unable to get on to your preferred group and another group has space you may book in to their event.
Please be considerate to other runners by not picking a group which is slower than your ability as this might result in someone who is slower than you not being able to run or might have to run in a faster group than they are comfortable with. There may be some juggling of positions by those in charge of booking before the deadline of 5pm on the day of the run.
Meeting Points
All groups are allocated an area of the Henhayes playing field (as the car park is being used for the vaccination centre) to meet to avoid breaking social distancing regulations.
Group A – Meet on the nearest corner of the rugby pitch
Group B – Meet on the mini football pitch just inside the gate from the car park
Group C – Meet to the right of the gate near the pre-school window
Other Rules:
Runners are not to greet each other physically and must maintain social distancing regulations at all times.
Runners are encouraged not to sit down and should not use communal benches, seats, etc.
