Come and spot a star when RTE in conjunction with the Business Houses Athletic Association (BHAA) host the annual 5 mile road race on Saturday, May 1, 2010 at 11:00 am. The race will be held through the RTE complex None
The prizes will be presented by a Personality. Tickets for the Late Late Show will be among the many spot prizes on offer after the race. The RTE 5 received the BHAA ‘Race of the Year’ for 2006, 2007 and 2008 – an achievement never reached by any other race in the BHAA calendar.
We welcome all runners – fast and slow, beginners to elite. The emphasis is on running for your company, whilst competing against people of your own ability.
There will be the usual eighty prizes, with individual prizes for the first three ladies and first three men. Also, there are prizes for the first three in each of the age categories, both for ladies and men. All members are eligible for team prizes.
The race will be followed by showers and refreshments in the RTE Sports and Social Club. Parking is available to all. The results will be ready on the day and prizes will be awarded to all of the categories mentioned above.
The results, photos of the action and a video will be available from Sunday on www.bhaa.ie.
Full details of the race can be found on the website where you can also ask any questions on the forum. All BHAA Facebook and Twitter members will receive details in advance of the race, and the usual text message will go to your phone. If you have not already joined up with any of these, please do so. It’s a great way to keep in touch.
