KENT AC NEWS BULLETIN
30 October 2022
This Halloween weekend saw a frightfully great turnout to Hilly Fields parkrun yesterday. We’ve also seen some fang-tastic performances recently from across the club, with particular congratulations to:
Roger Beardworth for running the Abingdon Marathon in 3:03
Jake Simmonds for completing the Croydon 10km in 33:59
Katie Rowland for being the first female finisher at the Last Friday of the Month 5km in 17:58
Lara Bromilow for hitting 2:54 at the Frankfurt Marathon.
Well done to all! If you have achievements to share, then please do let us know we can shout you out in future newsletters.
On Wednesday, we have the club AGM at the Blythe Hill Tavern- more details below, and everyone is welcome, so please do come along!

We only need each track attendee to volunteer a couple of times a year to spread the responsibility fairly.
T&Cs for the track pass draw:
All volunteers for the current month will be added into the hat for a draw each month.
The winner will win a free pass for the next calendar month.
Names will be automatically drawn from https://namepicker.net/ (or similar alternative)
The winner can either chose to:
use their free pass within a calendar year
allow their free pass to roll down to another volunteer
annual pass holders can nominate another club member if they cannot make use of the pass themselves
No refunds/discounts will be provided in place of the free monthly pass.
Volunteers will only be eligible to win a pass once every three months.

Ladywell Arena now has new opening hours dedicated to the public. While during these times the Kent AC track pass is not valid, members can pay for an individual session.
Session times are:
Monday: 07:00 -15:00

Friday: 07:00 – 15:00
Saturday – Sunday: 09:00-15:00

The Kent AC track pass continues to be required for training on Tues/Thurs evenings and Sunday mornings.
Track staff have encouraged people to double check the opening hours before their training session, as they may occasionally be closed for school sport days and football friendlies. Hours can be checked at https://www.better.org.uk/leisure-centre/london/lewisham/ladywell-arena. This will likely suit members who can’t make training sessions but would like to train in the morning/lunchtime/evening.
Pay as you go fees can either be paid via cash to the desk or using the Better app (note: staff are working to add the sessions to the app).
