**Andrew Stansfield Curry Night and Handicap 5K – 9th November**
A reminder folks to get booked on the Andrew Stansfield 5K Curry Night
There is nothing better than going eyeballs out on The Prom on a Tuesday night in a 5K in the onset of winter knowing that a curry awaits you.
It’s just £7 and we need to get the food order sorted in good time to ensure we’re all well fed.
And please bring along raffle prizes on the night.
We’ve had no social events for ages so let’s make it a good one.
Hello fellow striders,
Ahead of the Andrew Stansfield 5K see below the instructions for the night.
Race instructions
1. A race briefing with take place at the police club at 18:30 and the first wave of runners will start at 19:00.
2. It is a handicap race which requires you to estimate the time it takes you to run 5k….an honest estimation. We believe in the past informal stewards inquiries have taken place(Marty Hirrell😜).
3. Each wave will be announced at the start line; from the slowest wave to the fastest e.g 35mins start time 19:00, 34 mins start time 19:01 and so forth.
4. Volunteers will be along the route and at the turning point supporting and guiding you on what will undoubtedly be a prom 5k pb.
5. After the race the curry, prize giving and raffle will take place at the Police Club.

We appreciate that you are all adults and can make your own informed decisions, however with over 100 people signed up, the venue will be at capacity. The club recommends that:
1. You maintain social distancing as much as possible for the evening.
2. You take a lateral flow test pre and post the event.

4. You avoid mass gatherings at the start and finish of the race.
We look forward to seeing you and wishing you a cracking evening.
Has entry now closed for this event? My son (Thomas Back) will be home from Uni for a few days, and would enter if there was space (as would I). No problem if it's full - we should have signed up earlier.
Hi Julian, entered via webcollect on Sunday but haven’t received confirmation and have now been locked out of account. Do you have me down as having entered, if not can you email me bank details and I will pay entry that way
Hi Julien,
Just seeing if there’s any chance I could run next week, and miss the curry if it’s too tricky to add more numbers on? Sorry to be a pain - I only get my rota for work the week before, and I do a lot of late shifts, so wasn’t sure I would be free. No worries at all if not - it’s just on the off chance!
