Bedford
Harriers Group Ethics
Home
Please be
advised of Bedford Harriers group ethics.
-
Start and
finish together on all sessions
-
If you need
to finish early let the group leader know that you are leaving
-
On steady
runs faster runners please run to the back of the
slower runners at regular intervals (Don’t wait for them to
catch up, run behind them to encourage them)
-
Faster
runners wanting a more challenging steady run are asked to try the next groups
up, they won’t eat you!
-
During speed
sessions run at your own pace (faster runners when finished
should encourage slower runners until they have finished, or continue with
speed session set until last runner has finished) Then we all warm down
together
-
Wait at
traffic lights until all the group are there before
we press the button
-
At zebra
crossings regroup before we reach the crossing
-
Front-runners
look out for obstacles and shout to all of group which side to move to left or
right, or what the obstacle is. (Bollard, person, stump etc)
-
High
visibility tops should be worn during winter months, white or reflective
clothing or bibs. (Bibs available from kit)
-
All runners
must hold a valid Bedford Harrier membership card unless in your first 4 weeks
in which case please give your name and a contact number to your coach.
-
Please
endeavour not to run on cycle paths running on the right hand side where the
pavement has dual use.
Your safety is paramount, if these Ethics are neglected then the group numbers
will have to be minimised for safety reasons.
