Fell Running Safety Awareness Session
Date: Tuesday 26th April
Time: 20:15-21:30
Cost: Nowt
Location: Next door to MCC at Calder Valley Search and Rescue Team (CVSRT) base.
CVFR are keen to promote greater safety at our races and for fell runners in
general and have teamed up with Calder Valley Search and Rescue Team (CVSRT) to
offer a safety awareness session which will focus on the common illnesses and
injuries associated with fell running.
The session will be run by Dr Ali Morris, CVSRT Team Doctor and all-round
outdoor adventure enthusiast. It’s aimed at everyone (seniors and juniors) at
the club interested in knowing more about how to help themselves and other
runners, be it in races or when out training.
Don’t worry – there is no practical element or test at the end! All you will
need to do is take a seat, watch, and listen (and maybe ask a few questions).
Oh and maybe eat a bit of cake…
We have also recently refreshed the Check Point First Aid Kits to better equip
us to deal with incidents at our fell races – these will be available for you
to look at.
If you are interested in attending, please confirm to me (Emily Ledder) via the
event on Facebook or email (emilyledder00@xxxxxxxxx) by Sunday 17th April.
Numbers are limited to 25 due to room size.
Look forward to seeing some of you there,
Emily
