On-the-Move
In order to monitor the On the Move sessions more closely the participants will each take a numbered disc during their 5-minute warm-up. These discs must be returned at the end of the session when they report on their number of completed laps. This will give us an accurate tally of the number of participants who have attended on a particular day. It will also assist us in being more accurate when recording the number of laps completed.
