What you need to do to participate.
After a long winter, we are thankfully at a point where we can recommence Tuesday evening Club training sessions.
To ensure we can run the sessions compliant with Covid 19 control requirements, we need you to do three things:
Fill in the Club General Health Questionnaire (link is on Seniors Training webpage: https://www.cirencesterac.com/seniors), if you have not done so previously
download the England Athletics "RunTogether" app and register, filling in your contact details (for Track & Trace) and your ICE (in case of emergencies), so that you can book your slot on the relevant session
read and implement the Runners' Instructions (our Covid Protocol) (see below)
NB Without these we will not be able to achieve a Covid-Secure environment for the sessions.
Looking forward to training with you again,
Dorian

The Session

Please Note for everyone’s health, safety and well-being:
