The July out of town run will start from the car park in Warsash that the June one did which is down by the boatyard not far from the Rising Sun pub.

I ran a trial run of the route today and it should be no longer than 7.5 miles and it is flat (give or take a few rises and falls here and there).

The run starts at about 7pm on Thursday 29th July.

Next Tuesday the novices from the beginners course will be given a route to run that is shorter (by at least half) than the 10km that the rest of the club will run. You will need to meet at the usual time (just before 7pm) at the junction of Stokes Bay Road and Jelicoe Avenue.

There is a map after the page break.

The Summer XC results are out. Congratulations to all who took part on a tough course on a hot night. Special mention to Lorraine as the only woman from the club who ran and sacrificed some skin to the hills for the cause.

I suspect I'll not be running very fast at training this evening.

It's summertime and so it's time for the club's popular Annual Relay. The emphasis is on fun and an opportunity to socialise with club members and families. Mixed ability teams will be selected, with each runner completing a 2.5 mile leg, starting and finishing at the Club.  A free BBQ will follow, but please free to bring along a contribution of food (e.g. salad, snacks or deserts).

The relay will be on Sunday 18 July 2010, 0930 for 1000 start.

If you are running please put your name on the list at the club by Thursday 16th July. This is very important because it allows the teams to be made up to be roughly equal.
