If my calculations are correct, the Isle of Man Veteran Athletes Club organise nine events each year but rather strangely six of them fall within an 11 week period during the late summer and early autumn.
The Marathon in August is followed by a 20km walk, the End to End Walk, a round of the Cross Country league, the autumn handicap event and the Syd Quirk Half Marathon.
The latter two events will be held this Thursday evening and a week on Sunday and you can find full details at www.iomvac.co.uk, the website run by Adrian Cowin. In addition to competitors, the club is looking for helpers. Please contact Marie Jackson if you can help.
The IOMVAC also organise the Manx 20 Miles, a spring handicap and the Veterans Mile.
