Training this Tuesday 2nd Jan 2018

The 7 minute milers will be doing their 5 miles course from Bramcote L C from approx 6.15pm - meet from aboiut 6pm in the foyer. As promised in my last blog in November I will attempt to drive to the Tennis Centre in a reasonable time aiming for a 6pm start (traffic may force a delayed arrival). Approx 7 miles at about 9.30 -10 mins per mile pace.

Training Tuesdays

Last night due to heavy traffic congestion I was late arriving at the Tennis Centre so apologies to anyone who gave up waiting. Also due to injury of key members the Bramcote run was cancelled at short notice so again apologies to anyone put out by the no shows. Going forward I am suspending the Tennis Centre sessions until January when hopefully the traffic may have eased slightly. The Bramcote group is also suspended until there is a compliment of regulars again. It will be announced on this blog.
