A series of tempo runs have been organised to tempt you off the couch on Thursday evenings over the next couple of months. Something like 30 people have already expressed their interest in taking part and the following schedule has been put together by Jane Ann Healy.
You can just show up at any of these runs unannounced, but be there on time please. If you let Jane Ann Healy know of your interest she'll keep you up to date with any changes to the plan or other arrangements. You can email her at [email protected]

The beauty of doing the session in a group is that there will most likely be someone there at your pace to encourage you along and keep you 'honest'. You do not have to be a member of the club to take part, just turn up and join in.
