Update:- Coach trip 2024 – Race the Train
22 June LATEST UPDATE – If you have put your name down, I have sent you an email via newsletter@staffordharriers.co.uk about paying for the coach £17.50 per person, the email contains a link to the shop. Please follow this link and make your payment.
If you can’t go please contact me and I will remove you from the list – Colin
LAST UPDATE – If you have now entered the race please email info@staffordharriers.co.uk and your name will be updated to ‘entered’. If you can no longer go, please also email in. If anyone else wants to go on the coach, please add your name before 31st May so that we can arrange which size coach to use and finalise prices.
Please register your interest!
Hello, Harriers!
To be ultra organised this year, please note this year’s coach trip is to Race the Train in Towyn, Wales. This is both for runners and non-runners and is as much a social day out as competing in the race itself.
It is held on Saturday 17th August at 2.05pm and is a multi-terrain 14 mile race with the aim of beating the train!
There is also a shorter race starting at 11.15 am (10k) but unfortunately, the coach trip is only for the 14-mile race. If we had people entering the earlier race, it would mean a very early start and we would need 2 drivers for the coach, which would be costly. If we’re going all the way to Wales we might as well enter the main race!! All abilities are welcome! [Ian has confirmed only the 14 mile race is in the Challenge]
I, myself have competed in this race 4 times and I absolutely love it! There is a great atmosphere, with lots of locals cheering you on, along the way. You will not be disappointed! All runners get a t-shirt and medal and there is a marquee at the finish that sells snacks and beer! Much-needed refreshments, if you ask me!
If you don’t fancy the race, there are tickets for the train itself, so you can hop on and cheer your friends, and family on the route, as the course doesn’t deviate from the track too far. What’s not to love?!
Entries for the race and train are now open, so to find out more about this trace and to book yourself a place please click on the following link – Home – Race The Train Tywyn
If you are interested, please put your name below and state if you have entered or not, so that we can work out what size coach we will be requiring!!! If you haven’t entered yet, still put your name down, as we still have plenty of time to enter!
We can’t yet estimate the cost as we don’t know what size coach we will need.
