Doncaster's friendliest road and trail running club
G3
Hi all, quick note to say forms are up for next week – please book on if you’re coming!
We’ll be offering either hill reps at the Cenotaph or a social run with Mick on Tuesday. The Social will be a recce of R12 (next week’s route), which is 6.5 miles at a steady pace to suit the group.
On Thursday we’ll be doing R11 (~5.3 miles).
Hi all, forms for next week are up. Please put your name down if you’re coming!
On Tuesday we’ve decided to do a social run instead of intervals. There will be two groups to choose from, both easy paced (one easier than the other 😄).
You’ll need a headtorch! (If you don’t have one, please ask and we will try and arrange a loan for you – although they are a worthwhile investment and recommended for most runs over winter.)
The route will be flat and mostly tarmac, but there’s a small section through woods. The route is around 6.5 miles, with options to cut short – which will almost halve the distance.
We normally stop for a drink on Thursday nights, but will also head into Icebreakers on Tuesday after the run for a change, too.
Thursday’s route is R10 (Hare and Hounds route) and is just under 6 miles.
Have a great weekend, hope to see some of you on Sunday at Donny 10K (or at Whitby’s for some 🐟 and 🍟 soon afterwards – or at the Wool Market in town from around 12:30 onwards).
Good luck to everyone who’s racing!

There will be two routes, one approx 5.5 miles for two groups and a shorter one approx 4ish miles for a third group.
