Saturday session and membership form

Saturday Session

Once again we are all over the place this weekend.  Some are doing the Sunshine Coast marathon festival, some are doing a trail run, some are actually sticking to the cook Island program and doing a reccy run (good work Keeters).
So, for all of these reasons, this Saturday session will be a "do what you want run".  But there will be a few options:

1. Meet Liss at 6am for a long run

2. Meet Matt L at 6:50am for a park run (meet at the start of park run)

3. Meet all of us at the stairs at 7:30am for the big decision of where to eat, and some drinks and lollies of course.

When: Saturday 19th August

Where: Meet on the Stairs of the Southbank Surf Club


Time:  6am

Cost: $2

Followed by breakfast as always!!

Membership Form

We had a great response from those of you who have filled out our new membership form.  Not only have we been able to update our database but some of the suggestions we have received are great and we look forward to implementing them after we get through our Cook Island adventure.

If you were unable to join us on Monday night for our membership sign on session, you can become a member of BRS by completing the form below. 

Please note, without a membership form and payment casual sessions will be $8.
