Julie’s July away run is on Thursday 20th at 6:30 from The Styrrup pub in Rossington (click here for a Google map). The address is 9 Stripe Rd, Rossington, Doncaster DN11 0HZ.

Parking is available although we always recommend car sharing as it can get quite busy/additional parking outside St Michael’s church if needed.

It will be a 6 mile trail run with an option to cut short (back to the pub!) at 4.5 mile if needed.

Chip butties are £1 and payable on the night.

Please let Julie know if you are coming & wanting a butty!

Thanks! 💙💛

Hi everyone, forms for next week are up. Please ensure that you put your name down if you intend to come along to any of the sessions.

On Tuesday we’ll do diagonals at Cantley Park for the main session. The jog down is around a mile and then same back. If you’d like to meet us there, then meet in the park around half way down the road to the football training facilities.

Mick will take a social run, which will recce a new route we intend to use for Thursday.

Thursday’s route will be a new one – it’ll have a shortcut and bring the run to around 4 miles for anyone needing that, and more or less 10K exactly for everyone else doing the full run.

It’s a mixture of trail and road, but road shoes should be fine providing we don’t have a monsoon between now and then.

See you in the week!

Morning everyone, form for this week is up – please remember to put your name down if you intend to come along to either of the sessions on Tuesday.

The main session we’ll be doing 600 metre reps in the woods.

If you would like to meet us there, then please park in the car park at the top of the golden mile along the racecourse. Here’s a pin.

BUT… walk back out of the car park back towards the racecourse until you come out of the trees. We will do a warm up (probably on one of the football pitches if they’re free) to the side of the road before going back into the woods to do the session.

Alternatively, if you just want a social jog, then you can do that with Jo.

A reminder that we’re on the away run from Wheatley Hills Rugby Club on Thursday. Details are in this post in the Facebook group – be sure and read that, and post in there if you want something to eat (by no later than Tuesday PM!)

See you in the week!

It’s less than 2 weeks now to the first race in our brand new 5km race series, the “DonFaster 5k”!!  We hope to see lots of new and old faces there for what should be a cracking event.  The cycle track is flat and fast, and the course is UKA measured and certified, so all those shiny new PBs will be official and everything!

If you’ve not entered yet, what’s your excuse?!
