Spring 2011 Junior Update

Wow, those cold, wet winter nights are soon to be over, and we can return to the delights of hill climbs at Tristrams. Yes folks, this coming Monday will be the last session on the astroturf for a while  and I would like to say that it has been a pleasure to turn out each Monday with such an enthusistic, energetic and appreciative group. Dowy, Greg and myself have marvelled at the fact that you keep coming back for more. The harder we push, the more you seem to like it.
Ace Dallam runner, Eddie Simpson, who has watched on many times whilst Olivia, his daughter, went through the sprinting sessions, was telling me that he has seen many of you develop a good running style and improve your stamina which you have. This has all been a result of your request not to bring a halt to training once the dark nights start in October.
 I have been amazed that every week the girls outnumber the boys. No-one has ever given us any concern about their behaviour and you have just been fantastic. Well done everyone.
  
 Now, just in case you don`t make it on Monday and miss out on the start of the chocolate egg season, then try and get mum or dad to get you to the `Sausage Sizzle` on Wednesday 30th March for a 7.00pm start. The directions and details of the nights activities are on the Dallam website, but eggs will again be in abundance. Hope you can make it.
