Comms Express, a leading supplier of networking and IT infrastructure solutions, is thrilled to be sponsoring the Chelmsford Athletics Club Miles of Miles event again this year. The event is set to be bigger and better than ever, with a range of exciting prizes up for grabs, including cash prizes and medals. CLICK HERE for more details.
We are delighted to announce that Miles of Miles sponsored by Comms Express is back on Saturday June the 21st and as in the previous two years this event will incorporate the Essex AA 1 Mile track Championships.
We also have a very exciting new addition to the event… we will be introducing ‘The Cornell Mile Challenge Cup’ named after club legend Bill Cornell, who was pound for pound our best ever miler. This is a Club competition with prize money of £1000 1st place, £500 2nd place & £250 3rd place and the Cornell Cup to keep for a year for the winning Club, not to mention the prestige of being the top all round Miler Club in the UK.
The Comms Express team will be handing out hand clappers to all those that want them, and we want you to make as much noise with them as possible to support the runners and make a great atmosphere.
Since its inception, the Miles of Miles event has encouraged athletes of all abilities to take part and “have a go”. It doesn’t matter whether you’re a seasoned runner or have never set foot on a track before, this event is the perfect opportunity to start or rekindle your passion for athletics.
Medals & Prizes
A £50 Amazon voucher will be given to the fastest athlete in each age/gender group inc. U11’s.
1st, 2nd & 3rd place Miles of Miles medals will be awarded at the end of every race, and there will be a separate podium ceremony for those coming 1st, 2nd & 3rd in the county championships.
£1000 will be awarded to the winning Club of the Cornell Cup.
£500 will be awarded to the runner-up Club in the Cornell Cup
£250 will be awarded to the 3rd place Club in the Cornell Cup.
Ceremonies will take place as soon as the results have been worked out and will be in between races where time permits.
