Your safety has always been our main concern. We are disappointed to have to do this and are sure you will understand and agree with our decision
Couple of answers to questions:
** Will beginners’ groups still start after Easter?
Once we can start club runs again we will finalise the dates of the beginner’s groups and publish them, but will not start until further notice
** Will parkrun Graduation happen planned for Saturday 21 March 2020?
No, parkrun in the UK has been cancelled as well, once the club is back running and parkruns are resumed we will announce plans
** Can I run on my own?
That is your own decision, we will not be promoting runs on our social media channels, please follow laws and guidance
** What about meetings I am involved with in the club?
All Face to Face meetings relating to Redway Runners are cancelled, e.g. event planning, Run leads meeting, and committee meetings
** The club year ends on the 31 March will that have any impact?
No, the club year ends 31 March 2020, and we will start a new club year 1 April 2020 and renewals will be due, however, once restrictions are lifted we will then plan and hold the club AGM we will publish a date for the AGM with as much notice as possible
Finally, your safety is paramount to us and this has been a difficult time, we are Redway Runners and the green will be back on the Redways soon and we will again ‘Run Milton Keynes’.
Please do not be too disappointed, but we know we are.
