The Warrior Challenge runs from 1 November 2010 – 23 October 2011 but we have had a small glitch in the system and we want to give you a heads up to avoid confusion and any misunderstandings.

The challenge was only officially launched recently and as a result our Training runs co-ordinator, Andrea has only been recording your presence at training runs since 30 April 2011. Please bear this in mind when you check on your points.
I am sure that you will understand that it will be impossible for our intrepid run leader to remember exactly who has been on which training run since November last year. Especially as Andrea only took over this portfolio at the beginning of 2011. And if you feel aggrieved that you have lost out on some point gathering – well why not just double your efforts and add a time trial and an extra training run into your schedule each week.

Apologies to all those dedicated training run participants but we are only human and sometimes things do fall through the cracks. Looking forward to welcoming you to more club events. Remember that you can accumulate points for all sorts of activities like assisting at our Camel Race in September. There will be three lucky winners of this competition which will be announced at the annual prize-giving in November.

Purpose of the Challenge

• To encourage mass participation among Satorians in a wide range of club events.
• Gain recognition and keep members motivated throughout the year.
• Recognise the efforts of members who help out at water tables, TT’s & in the Camel Run
• Introduce a competition that everyone can have a chance of winning
• To have some fun and socialize!

So how does it work?

Members need to earn a minimum of 100 points to be eligible for the prize. The winners will be drawn by lucky draw from the names of those who achieve more than 100 points. The prize-winner is not the person who earns the most number of points, it can be anyone that gets over the 100 point mark, and points aren’t just earned from running, they’re gained from other activities like timekeeping, and marshalling, so anyone who takes part in club activities regularly should be in line to win the prize!

While there is some recognition for longer distances run, the aim is not to focus on distance events only. By attending time trials and training runs regularly, members will still be eligible to win the prize.
