We have had a lot of events over the past 2 weeks or so; the Eastleigh 10k then the Wickham 10k and half-marathon. People obviously need to rest in preparation for these events and recover after, therefore the Warsash Running Club has been a tad quiet in the last 2 weeks. Well done to all those people who completed the Wickham this weekend, I hear it was eventful. I understand the the “Chilly, Silly, Hilly” run would have helped the preparation had it been a “Muddy, Chilly, Silly, Hilly run!”
The new routes for the next few weeks have been posted on our New Life Training facebook page and offer a choice of 3 distances. On Monday 28th Charles and Greg opted for the 4.9miles and did fantastic finishing with averages of 9m41s and 9m 23s respectively. With only the 2 of them in attendance there was some debate on whether they would actually run, as it was cold, Charles was hungover and Greg knackered from the 10k, but they both agreed that they felt much better for it afterwards. Well done Gents for going for it!
Monday 4th April saw Jo, Carl and Leyon come along to “loosen off” after their exploits the previous day at the Wickham run. Jo was joined this evening by her mum and the pair of them put in a good time over the 4.1mile route. It was interesting that everyone had to use different trainers after ruining their main pair in the previous days event. This probably didn’t help Carl, who had to pull up after 1.3miles . This left Leyon to push himself round on his own and he did fantastic, finishing just outside the 9mins per mile marker, not bad having raced a 10k just yesterday! Well done to you all, same routes next week and hopefully a few more people back!
