Sunday 1st June - Cotswold Way Run

Weekend Training - Saturday 24th May

Magor Marsh 10k speed training - Dick is going to the CW run, but for those who would like to meet at Undy Sports Club at 10 am - to run the course - alternate km’s steady and race pace

The Cotswold Way run will be on Saturday this week, as Dick’s fell race ( Myndd Troed )  is on Sunday.

We will meet at the L C at 9 am to share lifts to Cold Ashton.  We will run Leg 10 - 10 miles down hill! (well nearly) to finish in Bath.  For some reason The Dog seems to be pub of choice, for after the run.

Off Road Techniques

Andy Creber’s Off Road Techniques sessions originally scheduled for Thursday 15 May and Tuesday 20 May have been postponed to Tuesday 27 and Thursday 29 May.

Apologies from Andy, but his knees are playing up and he wants to be fully fit.

Remember that the sessions are identical, so you need only attend one. If there is sufficient support, Andy hopes to put on a more advanced course later in the summer.
