Dear Members of Wye Valley Runners,

Following on from the club AGM, we are writing to formally introduce ourselves as the co-chairs of Wye Valley Runners. For those who don't know us, we are long-serving members (or relative newbies compared to some of our members!) and look forward to the challenge of leading the club over the next year.

First and foremost, we would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Paddy, for his outstanding contributions over the past three years. His dedication and leadership have been invaluable to our club. The club has grown and flourished under Paddy's care and is truly a friendly place to meet, socialise, and, of course, do some running. As we step into our new roles, we would like to outline our primary goals for the group.

It is our commitment to maintain a friendly and inclusive environment for existing and new members, both beginners and more experienced runners. We aspire to continue offering a variety of interesting and diverse training sessions, along with social activities that bring our members together.

Additionally, we prioritise exploring town and trail running in our home county and beyond its borders. We hope to carry on the vibrancy and warmth that has long been associated with our club, ensuring that it remains a welcoming space for all who share our passion for running.

Thank you for your continued support as we embark on this exciting journey together.

Dan and Jerry, Co-Chairs, Wye Valley Runners
