Chav Update

Dear Members and Interested Parties, 

Well, the 23rd of March announcement from the government that we are to go to Emergency Level 4 Full Lockdown for 4 weeks from midnight 25th of March rather overtaken my last message that we were hoping to continue with Club training.

Unfortunately, we cannot now hold group training sessions or club events, and Opening Day on Saturday 4th of April will have to be postponed.  But don’t worry, CHAV is still here as a club and will resume services as soon as we are able to. For now, the most important thing is to comply with the lockdown rules so that together we can beat this crisis.

I will update you as soon as I know of any news about what will happen for this Winter running season. In the meantime, stay connected with your friends and training buddies via our Facebook or other groups. Share your training progress along with any good tips on how to train in these times. I know that our coaches are connecting with their groups to advise on programs.

Take care of yourself, reach out and be kind to others - keep up your training as best you can because there are definitely races to come.

Kia kaha,

John Palmer 

Club President, Christchurch Avon Athletic Club
