Details of the sessions are listed here. Please feel free to come along or contact us if you want to find out more. Sunday Runs: Quicker Runners Sunday mornings are reserved for the "Long Run", which is usually a 90-minute run of around 11miles starting from different places around the area at 8am. One or two routes are a little longer. Next Sunday's run is posted on the front page, usually by the Friday beforehand. At the moment, this is suitable for the quicker runners in the club (as a rough guide sub 1.35-1:40 half marathon runners). More sensibly paced runs! There are alternative slower runs. A big group including juniors and their coaches and mums and dads meet on a Sunday at 11am. This has a number of different groups and there should be one there to suit you. Please contact Sean McGrath for details (the usual meeting is at Hartford but they are planning to meet at Whitegate station in the near future.
