Group run – Sunday Jan 11th

We are planning to have a group run on Sunday morning (Jan 11th) in the Beacon Hill/Bradgate Park area. Meeting 8am at Wilton Road Car Park (to share lifts) or 8.30am at the Sports Ground Car Park, Watermead Lane, Loughborough.

The plan is to run to Beacon Hill, Beacon Plantation, Windmill Hill, Bradegate Park and then a choice of ways back to vary the distance. There will then be chance to refuel with a late breakfast before heading back.

This should be a really good run – whether as training for the Charnwood Hills, Belvoir Challenge or similar races, or just as an excuse to burn a few calories on an off road run.

2015 club runs

Wednesday evening club runs restart for the New Year on Wednesday Jan 7th with a choice of runs – either a road run in Melton (route 1 – see routes page for more detail) suitable for all abilities, or an off road head torch run from the Stilton Cheese in Somerby (head torch and trail shoes a must).

Full schedule of runs for the next few months is on the diary dates page.

3 Jan 2015 – No Walk in the Park race 1

In his first race of the new year, Stuart Gregory headed off to a cold North Derbyshire for race 1 in the no walk in the park race series. Finding himself over a minute up on his previous best after the first two laps, he dropped back slightly in laps three and four to finish the first of twelve races in the series, in a personal best time of 26 minutes 43 seconds, 19 seconds quicker than the final race of the series in December 2014.
