Some sad news over the weekend with the death of our friend, club colleague and long time starter for our open events, Ivan Taylor.
Ivan has been with Charnwood AC as coach, team manager, official and on the front gate collecting money for countless training sessions as well as helping out in many other capacities.
Ivan is also the original organiser of our open events, and over the years he has started many of your races, both at our events and others across the area.
Our sympathies to his family and friends.
