BBQ Stakes Christmas Relays 8th December 2010

Wednesday 8th December 2010 from 5:30 pm.

From a message to Customs Jiggers from BBQ Stakes.
Greetings from your Southside cousins at the BBQ Stakes, the second longest running lunchtime event in Canberra after the Customs Run ! A number of the regulars at Customs Joggers have participated in the BBQ Stakes over the years and some have participated in our annual "Terry Levings" relay event at our annual Christmas Pointscore run. A warm invitation is extended to all Customs Joggers to attend this annual run, if you desire, and details are as follows:
Date is Wednesday 8th December
Start time is 5.30PM (No lunchtime run that day for the BBQ Stakes)
Location is the BBQ pit beside the Lollipop Child care just opposite the Woden Library.
BBQ and a couple of drinks to follow (We do allow for vegetarians and soft drink is available). We do our trophy presentations as well.
Event is a team relay with each team comprising 2 runners.
Distance is 6.0k's with handover at the 3.0k mark, with a shortcut available to that point for the 2nd runners.
Handicap is worked out by team members to allow you to finish in exactly 40 minutes. You sink or swim based on your own expertise at judging your pace! If an individual thinks they will take 24 minutes to run 3 k's then their team member will need to complete their 3 k in 16 minutes
NO watches, GPS units etc allowed!
Winning team is the one closest to 40 minutes.
Individuals welcome and we can allocate a partner.
All RSVP's to me to allow for catering.
Cost is $4.00 and that covers your BBQ.
Volunteers to help with cooking BBQ and helping at half way and finish are always welcome.We will have officials on site from about 4.45.
