19/06/2008 - Invitation to Compton Canter
All Canalrunners, past and present, will be welcome Compton Canter on July 5th. Details can be found at
http://www.comptonharriers.org.uk/ (click on the canter button in the menu). The race is held in conjunction with our village fete and vehicle show, so there is plenty for the family to do while you're running. Perhaps we can have a bit of a GUCR get-together and chat over some photos and a beer or two afterwards.
25/05/2008 - NEW RECORD!
Pat Robbins (Zoom Tri Club) has set a new GUCR record at 27:01.
24/05/2008 - 29 GUCR08 Finishers
29 out of the 75 runners who started at Gas Street on Saturday morning have made it to the Finish at Little Venice.
22/05/2008 - Change of Venue for Friday Meet!
Dear All, I was informed at 17:30 hours today, Thursday, that the King's Arms will not be able to provide food Friday evening!
I have been able to find a new venue. We will meet at the Red Lion, Vicarage Road, Kings Heath, B14 7LY. It is about 1 mile from the other pub and about 500 metres from the No 50 bus route that unsupported runners have been advised to use. Bus passengers should get of at Kings Heath and walk west on the A4040 to get to Vicarage Road where the pub is located.
We aim to give lifts from the Red Lion to the Maypole Travelodge for those who will be without transport. If you get to the Red Lion, we will take you to the hotel car load at a time.
I am very sorry for this late change of plan. I made the booking last November and spoke to someone at the King's Arms three weeks ago and on Saturday last. There was no warning until today.
09/05/2008 - Urgent request for contact from Michael and Walter
Dick would like Michael Maire and Walter Eberhard to contact him as soon as possible. If any other competitor has contact details for either or both would they please contact Michael and Walter on my behalf and ask them to email me.

17/05/2007 - Paddington Hotels
One or two entrants have asked about cheap hotels within a reasonable distance of the Finish. Since posting a request yesterday, Jason has emailed with details listed in the main body of this item. Many thanks Jason.
