On Tuesday evenings, between April and September, we organise our 'Summer runs'. Each summer run is usually based at a lovely pub, house or picnic area. These are always great social occasions and we also get to see some beautiful Dorset scenery while we are at it.

The usual format involves meeting outside a pub at 7pm for a 7.15 start. This gives time to order food to be eaten after the run, and to listen to the run briefing. There will usually be a choice of two or three distances, ranging from about 4 miles up to about 9 miles, to suit different inclinations and abilities.

Maybe you may like to organise your own run. Simply choose a free week on the rota and think of a favourite place you like to run! There are always a couple of routes and distances to choose from, so all abilities make it back before last orders! Maps are usually offered and the routes well marked. But this is a social event and we always make sure no-one gets left behind!
