November 5 ~ Those of you who knew MARK PERRY of Cobra RC will be equally shocked and saddened to learn that he passed away last Friday night (30th October) as a result of a tragic accident. Mark was only 36 years old, and was a regular at many local races, ultras and Cross Country - Mark's last race was the Senneley's Park league race where he was competing in the same Division as our club. Mark was also the mainstay of the Cobra Classic, and will of course be greatly missed by members of Cobra RC, and the wider running community. Our thoughts at this terrible time go out to mark's family, his wife and three young children

The club entries are GUARANTEED, but not free - you still have to pay your entry fee ! Can ALL those who want to go into the draw, please ensure that they inform the Club Secretary in advance of the AGM, and also ensure that they show one of the committee members their proof of rejection (letter/magazine)
