Saturday 7th November - Forest Fun

This week, 11 brave E Group runners (and guest Twiggy) met to tackle the forest...and also the elements. Numbers were slightly down this week due to competing, marshalling duties and the great British Weather.

We warmed up 'en route' around Bottoms Reservoir and then headed up to Ridgegate Reservoir. We ran up to the Rangers Station and through the forest before returning back down to Ridgegate. The first half of the run was hilly but nothing too challenging for E Group. We then followed the new section of the Langley 7 route along the forest path and back to the Leather Smithy to complete a popular hill rep up Clarke Lane to the base of 'Airey assent' and then back.

A bit of speed work to end the session to see what the runners in the afternoon would be facing at the end of their 7 mile challenge.

Coffee and cake was abandoned due to marshalling duties and the fact we were all soaking!

See you next week,

Jen, Abi and Wendy
