Hello!
I've put a post on facebook but it occurred to me that not everyone is on there.......
For those of you flying out to Valencia from Bristol on Friday 29th Nov @ 16:35 returning Monday 2nd December @ 17:25, we're starting to look at transport to / from the airport.
Let me know here if you want to be included in the numbers.
I'll start making enquiries with taxi / bus firms next week.

Ok gang,
I have provisionally booked transport.
£270 / £30 each.
Return.
Pick-up / drop-off at club (because that's where we normally meet for these things) and an additional pick up at Llandaff train station (for those living near there or wanting to travel from home by train to avoid leaving a car parked up for the weekend).
No extra cost for the second pick-up stop.
This is a 16 seater bus so room for more if you can think of anyone.
I'm just waiting on a quote for a smaller vehicle as that may work out a bit cheaper.
Will keep you posted.
Cj

Update, we have an additional passenger, welcome aboard to Sarah. :-)
That means the fee just got better for us all.

Might be a daft question but has anyone entered the 10k and no longer intends running?

Hi all,
I've spoken to our driver Jason this evening and confirmed the travel arrangements as follows:
Friday 29th Nov.
12:45pm. Pick up from Llandaf train station (car park). 1pm. Pick up from club.
Please let me know if you intend to be at the station or club so that we don't miss anyone!
If you haven't paid me, please do so before the day of travel. Thanks.
Note: Check in for our flight is already open so we can print / download boarding passes in advance. More time in duty free. :-)

Just a little preview for next weekend's Valencia Marathon.
It's already been quite a year for Les Croupiers runners at the classic distance.
We have 14 runners sub 3 hours already in 2019 (compared to 7 in 2018).
There have been some outstanding performances along the way.
Richard Jackson-Hookins running 2:26:51 in Berlin was the fastest by a club member since 2005. I don't think he's taken his baseball hat off since.
And Tamara Beach's 2:45:48 at London was the fastest by a UK-based club lady since 1987.
There's been some club age group records too.
Andy Blair ran 2:50:04 at Amsterdam for a club M55 record, and Julie Scholey 3:55:36 at Barnstable for the F60 record (surely due for revision soon).
But there are several chances for more records at Valencia, as a crack squad has been pounding the streets for weeks. All will be revealed in Despatches at 9.00PM on Thursday week. If you're lucky enough to be going - good luck and enjoy!
Fastest per 5 year age category

Following my post on Facebook Messenger regarding taxis from the airport to the hotel, I am going to book a taxi for Dave and myself, please let me know if anyone would like to share with us or whether I need to book a larger taxi. I am using a company that I have used before in Spain and requires pre-booking. Thanks.
