 Well done Philly , a good time for a first Half Marathon race, more to come now you have got the taste for them.

I went for a long Run in Romanescu Park in Craiova at the weekend.It's the safest place in the City.Guarded by Police.I've tried running around the city but there are just too many stray dogs snapping at your legs.I'm hoping to fly back for a few days over Easter and possibly run the Helmsley 10K.Will i be able to register on the day?

could anyone tell me where me meet for the Dalby Forest run tomorrow please - is it at the visitor centre? Thanks, Philly

 Chances are you are not going to see all I've written so don't forget to press 'read more' if interested. I had a better week this week, although I still feel very slow. I know that speed is meant to beget speed, but I take so long to warm up.... I'm at the end of the recommended mileage ! I'm thinking of some new warming up ideas. Any suggestions?? After circuit training on Monday, I went on the Tuesday run from Steve's house. It's amazing what a laugh with a mate in the mud can do to lift spirits.

  There has been a change of  date for the KANTER , It is now the  5th of June , Not the 12th. I hope it is still O.K for you Peter?.

Just entered it!

 Anew 10k race is to be run at Helmsley on  Sunday the 4th of April. It is a Multi-Terrain Route, starting at the Sports & community Club which is up Baxtons Lane. It is a 10am start. Looking at the route it looks to be a good one ,mainly off road.

Just in case anyone fancies really...er...challenging themselves... my work colleague Michelle Atkins is one of 14 people who will be running 10 marathons in 10 days at Windermere in mid May (its her third time!) She tells me someone has just dropped out so there is a place spare!

ps - you have to get up to doing about 100 miles a week, according to Michelle, and also raise £2000 for Brathay Hall Trust. Anyone up for it?? 

First 5 start at 7.30pm. Handicap race 6 starts 7pm. Entries via Steve I think. Look at John Schofield Results web page which shows results to previous years so you can see who enters for PRC and how they did. I'll be entering again. You can do as many a you want I think. Steve will confirm as the rules may have changed? There is also a web page for the York Road Race League I think which will show you details of all the races and maps of where they are believe? Its a while since I've looked at it but may be worth checking out. hope this helps. See you Thursday. Caroline.
