I have thought, for some time, that it would be appropriate to arrange a run in remembrance of Norman, on a similar basis to that arranged in remembrance of Steve Barlow. EtU and I have discussed this and we mentioned the idea to Pete Ramsdale, now Chairman of the Harriers. From thereon the Harriers Committee took charge and at the AGM yesterday it was announced that the run would take place as an extension to the Harriers’ Thursday evening hill session culminating in a visit to Scotsman’s Stump at 7.45. EtU and I agree that it is appropriate that the club start the run in this way as Norman, of course, arranged the hill session for many years but we feel that Two Lads would have been a better place for a few words to have been spoken.
We suggest that our group meet at the usual place and time for the Thursday run and that we, as a group, do our own run perhaps visiting Two Lads and then joining the Harriers at Scotsman’s Stump. If the whole of our group were to turn out it would, of course, be a wonderful tribute to Norman.
On a personal note I will be even slower than usual having been laid up for so long. I hope you’ll all put up with this.
