Gotta love a good run and chat....

Great turn out tonight...the earlier group did 2.2 miles of hard graft...great to see Karen and Ailish back. Next week the earlier group will meet at 6.20 until 7pm. The 7pm group worked verrrry hard with 3.6 miles of various types of running, side stepping, sprinting and my favourite, skipping! 

Remember to sign up for the Glow in The Dark run if you can....thanks for your very good company tonight, especially those who migrated from 6pm. We have T shirts to spare now that everyone who ordered one has claimed theirs so please let me know if you want one. They are subsidised by a grant so a snip at £4!

Glow in the Dark

The Blurb......."Hoping to raise some more money for the Mid Argyll Chemotherapy Unit with a Glow in The Dark run/walk around and about Inveraray. Strictly for fun we will set off in groups of fast runners/ normal mortals/ walkers. PLEASE NOTE..this is a social run with friends not a race, inveraray jogscotland members have volunteered to lead the groups out and about but it is undertaken entirely at your own risk. Afterwards there will be soup and cake at the school.The money raising bit will by donation...As this is for fun and informal please feel free to bring friends/family etc. but I shall definitely need to know numbers and choice of distance when you sign up on this page. There will be the choice of 3 miles, 4 miles and less for walkers. Head torches essential, and remember the theme is Glow in the Dark...get your thinking caps on and thank you in advance to those who will support this cause."

The Begging... Would like four leaders/sweepers (at the back) for each group...any takers? please say 4 or 3 miles if you can help. you will be controlling the pace if you are a leader. And I would like maybe four big pans of soup and/ or baking? I will do one pan of soup. Big ask I know but very good cause!

Lovely night for a run

What a lovely evening for a run last night...well, for the first group anyway before darkness descended we did 2.77 miles at a fairly brisk pace including some relay sprints. Great to see the progress building week by week. The second group enjoyed (!) some lovely flat pyramid sprints along the car park making it 4.4 miles in total and ending under a lovely starry sky.
PLEASE NOTE this week was the last formal week of the beginners group. we are now amalgamating into one group at 7pm on Thursdays. There may be one or two who feel they still would like to stay in a beginners group and so Penny has kindly offered to continue with a 6pm group until Christmas. If you have any doubts about your ability to move to the 7pm group please just get in touch with me.The training at the 7pm group is very manageable at different levels and we will accommodate all your needs....especially if you tell me them! So looking forward to seeing most of you next week at 7pm.

Club Tops.... Penny is getting sponsorship from work for outer layer tops and there are two options. the hoody left and fleece right. Please vote for preference on facebook of possible but by e mail to me if not...majority rules. Pictures below. Please indicate size...S,M,L and same for the guys. Roughly the medium seems to be 12ish and the small 10ish? Thanks very much to Penny for sorting this.

Jogscotland leaders?

Great news!! The Mid Argyll Health & Wellbeing Network have given the full grant that I applied for recently to cover the cost of some new equipment (bet you cant wait!!) and the training of new jogscotland leaders...I have three volunteers, to whom I am very grateful and money for four...any more takers??

Thursday 11th

Penny will lead the 6pm group and the the 7pm group will meet to train together... I will see you the following week normal times.

Thanks to Penny and Liz.

Thanks very much to Penny and Liz for taking the two groups on Thursday...I understand from my spies that you are both a hard act to follow!

NEXT WEEK
I shall be away next Thursday and so Penny has volunteered to take the 6pm group again so there will be a session then. If the 7pm group still wish to meet that would be great...maybe a face book conversation to be had there. Back as usual the week after....
