President’s Tan Talk – December 2024
The weather was perfect for the first Tan Time Trial of summer, with a brief drizzle of no concern to runners. Peter and Graham had to relocate under a tree to “keep their paper dry”. There was a ‘big mob’ in attendance, including our enthusiastic and energetic friends from Inclusive Sports Training (IST). We also had a couple of ‘first timers’ who enjoyed their first TTT.
Around ten VRR members completed all twelve Tan Time Trials for 2024, with a similar number missing just one, for a range of reasons. Well done to our Tan Twelve Timers, tee-shirts will be organised shortly!! Come January everyone starts again, while in the meantime our New Year’s Eve (morning) Tan Fun Run beckons. We usually have a number of international visitors from a range of countries join us for that run.
My thanks to Graham Prossor on the great looking Stride Out, love the NYE graphic, and to Helen Myall for the great pics, both much appreciated.
Shout out to treasurer, Rowan Cole, having a minor op. resulting from wear and tear from very many years of running, see you soon Rowan!
On behalf of the VRR committee I wish all VRR members and families a great Christmas, enjoy your break, eat heartily then run it off on NYE and the January TTT.

Carl Kennedy has been a VRR member ‘forever’.
Family commitments have limited his appearances recently, so it was great to see him for the December TTT. |

It’s not often that you can get a photo of VRR member, Liz Wrigley on her own.
She’s normally photo bombed by Gary Turner or Kim Owens (who she loves walking with!) |

Talking of smiles, Stephanie Armstrong was giving the TTT a big thumbs up. |
