The crew off for a pre-run pint!
During discussions at recent committee meetings it was proposed that we should revive the “Club Trips” and some suggestions have been put forward for this year. We’ve tried to choose events that can be done in a day although the preferred option would be to take advantage of the transport and accommodation arranged by the club and to join the post-run meal and social gathering (costs to follow).
Although these events may seem quite a long way off we need time for everyone to be able to check their availability. We’ll soon be looking for suggestions for spring next year so watch this space. Meanwhile please consider the events below:

If any parent of a child in the club would like to join us, you are more than welcome. You still have plenty of time to train up for any of these events and we can help you with this.
