I aasume they're still on as the Saturdays are Boxing Day and the day after New Year's Day.
Unfortunately it means I'll miss both.

I am. We come up Boxing Day and back on the 30th.

Re: The athletics/running thread
Boxing Day is on. I responded to an email appealing for volunteers and now wish I hadn't, but will be there.
