Thursday Club Runs
All club runs start from Sport In Desford (opposite the Caterpillar factory
just outside Desford) at 6:45 on a Thursday. Everyone usually arrives between
6:30 and 6:45. The runs are well attended with up to 35 runners taking part.
All runners start at the same
time and follow the same route for the first part of the run. At a convenient
point the total group then splits into two groups and each follows a predefined
route classed as the ‘longer’ or ‘shorter ‘ run. Each
run has someone that will guide the runners as to when they need to re-group,
usually at 1 to 1.5 mile intervals. This ensures that no one is left running
on their own and it provides for a friendly club atmosphere whilst running around
the countryside.
