Running Report 8th & 9th August

Well done to Louise - she led the Tuesday 7pm group last week - extremely well! I'm very grateful - especially as she's doing the same for me this week as I'm moving into our new home on Tuesday. Fast Track Beginners will be on Friday 19th at 8pm for the same reason.

It's the last RR10 this week - Hursley at 7:15pm. This is a 4-5mile off road run in the same series as the Itchen Valley one Louise did the other week. Pat, the fabulous coach from the main SRS group, does all of them at the speed of the gentlest runner - so there is guaranteed company and support at the back! I am intending to go this time. Directions are in this link.

Mon 7pm 6.17km in 41:52 505 calories

Mon 8pm 6.4km* 408 calories

Tue 7pm Some did 5km, some did 6km

Tue 8pm 3.78km in 32:41 218 calories

I haven't logged the time for Monday's 8pm run as there was a stitch issue! Thanks to the group for getting themselves back to the Hub - sorry I missed you at the end.

On Friday, we'll be:

Don't forget that we will take more breaks if required.

Last week's runs 1st & 2nd August

I always try to remember that having me cycling alongside is not without benefits - but I'm looking forward to actually running with you this week! Karen was a great navigator in the bit of southern Bishopstoke where I get confused!

Well done to Louise - I think she's the first Eastleigh group runner to do one of the RR10 club run series. She did the Itchen Valley one for SRS.

Running tonight - I'll be cycling

I will be pedalling tonight alongside you guys - I have a cold! Downside is that I can't easily fit on the navigation & it's a road bike - so we are likely to be pounding pavements rather than trails.

Gin
