Saturday 6th June - Welcome C25K graduates

Wow! 40 E group runners met this morning to run the CAFOD route in reverse. After a split group warm up, we headed down the Middlewood to Bridge 8 and then onto the canal. The canal was beautiful in the sunshine! We ran down to Tinkers Clough where a few runners ran down to Clarke Lane and back down the Middlewood while others opted to run through Tinkers Clough and up to the Middlewood to meet us.

It was brilliant to see so many people 'lopping back' - we didn't even had to shout. The new C25K runners in true style didn't stop running, pushing E group away from a casual break. 

We took over the Waterside Cafe with around 25 people stopping for a brew and a post run chat. 

Welcome to E group graduates and new members!

Saturday 23rd May - Mount of Opportunity.....

By popular demand, we met at the Leather Smithy, & set out to tackle THAT hill!! 

The weather was perfect, & there was great running by everyone! 

Once at Stepping Stones car park, we decided to head through Macc Forest - with beautiful views, & a nice bit of down hill, & along the reservoir, back to the cars. 

Tea and toast/teacakes at Macclesfield Garden Centre afterwards. Lovely to see Wendy Swindells, & Dangerous Dave there too!

Those who can....run up hills!

From Wendy, Louise and Abi.
