Knee Knacker Update – June 2024
Hi Knee Knacker Runners!
It’s less than a month away until race day and the anticipation is building. There’s lots going on at Knee Knacker Central and we’ve got a few key updates for you. Please also keep your eye on our FB group and this website over the coming weeks and if you have any questions, just reach out!
EMERGENCY CONTACT
We need to ensure we have your up-to-date emergency contact, so please take a minute to provide this in the form no later than this Monday, June 17th. We will print this on the back of your bib if we get the info on time! Thank you.
RUNNERS GUIDE
This is the time of year when both excitement builds and questions arise. For key race info, check out our handy “Runners’ Guide“. If you want or need more info, there’s lots of additional detail on this website.
VOLUNTEERS
We LOVE our volunteers. We have more volunteers than runners on race day and this is a big part of our community connection. If you know a volunteer, have recruited a volunteer or run into a volunteer, please thank them . Part of why our volunteers keep coming back is you, our runners do a great job of showing appreciation!
We do still have some important roles we need filled, so if you have friends or family members who are willing to help out, please send them to Dennis via our volunteer form.
PARTY AT THE PARK
We are excited to be partnering with Deep Cove Pizza again this year to provide pizza at our finish line. Two slices of either meat or veggie will be available to runners – if you would like a vegan option, please contact Bev through our contact form before June 30th so we can plan for this! We will also have beer (from Bridge Brewing), wine and soft drinks available for purchase.
TRAINING RUNS
Training runs are well underway and everyone is welcome. Join us on Wednesdays and/or Sundays.
FUNDRAISING
Now’s the time to get your fundraising going if you haven’t already! We are honoured to partner with North Shore Rescue on race day and appreciate the generous donations you raise.
Please be in touch in the coming weeks if you have questions or would like to connect. I love hearing your stories as the countdown to race day continues!
Happy training,
Kelsy on behalf of the Knee Knacker Committee
