At the Eryri Harriers AGM, I became the new honorary secretary. But that didn't mean I know how to be one. It was necessary for the person currently in the post to show me what to do. That person is Anna, with whom I have both raced and car-shared. And that hand-over has now happened.
On a rainy Friday evening we had a little Zoom call. I logged into the Welsh Athletics website, and she showed me how to organise club business from there. She also explained to me around what time the various important things having to do with the club are happening. It looks like that the next thing that needs to happen is the organisation of the event at which all sorts of club prizes, like for the most improved runner, or the person with the biggest contribution to the club, are awarded. These prizes need to be retrieved, so they can be engraved with the names of the winners of 2025.
It wasn't a long call, but I really feel like I am ready for it now. And I have already engaged in my first official activity: ask chair for our updated constitution. Welsh Athletics requires that we keep that sort of documentation up-to-date on their website. And soon we will have the first committee meeting. I suppose it has started!
