A big warm welcome to our newest runner, Sarah, who joined us this evening for her first run. A great start too, setting off on the longest route, finishing it in style down Brook lane and stetting her first PB at 9m 28s per mile. Well done Sarah and welcome! Sarah had run with Charles for the most part who gave her a perfect induction and explanation of the club in my absence and while he was still able to talk, thanks Charles. I thought we had two other new recruits this evening. But it was Greg and Lydia back after a break. It was great to see them back, especially Greg as we had thought he had gotten lost trying to find the club. Both had great runs this evening though. Greg teamed up with Sues and Lou, and although they finished the run coming from totally the wrong direction, they all completed 4.6miles and in a good time, well done. Lydia teamed up with Nina, who is 19 days into completing ENJOYFRED (ENJOY February Run Every Day!) . It was a great first run back for Lydia, 4.3miles and in a great time. Well done to Nina too, who is really clocking up the miles this month.
The two young boys, Aaron and Owen, were back from their skiing trip and looking to re-ignite the competition for the fastest pace of the night. They were both surprised today to see their Mum beat them over the 5.7mile route. Karen had an exceptional run tonight, finishing with a 8m14s average and then running back up Brook Lane to check the boys were alright.
Celia was back this evening, now it has got a bit warmer. Cat has her running partner back and between them they tore up the 3.8 mile route. Welcome back Celia. Mike was also back this week after hurting his knee last week, he took things a bit slower this week (apparently). The 8m 14s average doesn’t look like taking it easy to me!
The funniest part of the evening was seeing a runner finish their circuit and switch their running app off, only to hear “Go!”. Doh!! She had forgotten to start it when she set off, fortunately for Lisa, she has a back up gadget which was able to record her time! She managed to finish just a few seconds behind Sarah P, who had the performance of the night taking 72 seconds off last weeks time on the same route. Well done Sarah.
Same routes for the last time next week team.
Also a quick mention that Lisa is putting together a team to run in the Eastleigh 10k coming up on 18th March, anyone interested please contact her through the Facebook runners blag page.
