-When you set a model running, (or at least when I) set a model running, it only runs for the first Year and then halts. This is to allow you to check everything is running OK. Once done you can now proceed with a continuation run. To do this:
+Often when you set a model running, it only runs for a certain length of simulation time (say a year), and then halts - even when you've set the run length to be longer. This is to allow you to check everything is running OK, and in UM parlance is known as an initial or new run (NRUN). 
 
- * on your local machine do `cd ~/umui_jobs/jobname`
- * edit the `SUBMIT` file
- * change the line `TYPE=NRUN` to `TYPE=CRUN`
- * if your initial run was a compile and run job in one job then you need also to change to
-   `STEP=4`
-   in the `SUBMIT` script as well.
- * save and exit
- * resubmit the UM run as you did for the initial run.

-The model should now start from the end of the first year and run to completion. If you're running for more than a year or so, you should probably read about Docs/AutomaticResubmission.
+Once done, you can now proceed with a continuation run (CRUN), and the model should now start from the end of the first run to completion. Instructions for submitting the continuation run can be found [Docs/AutomaticResubmission#ContinuationRun here]. This page also contains information on setting up the initial run and resubmission period [Docs/AutomaticResubmission#InitalRun here].
