Saturday 24th September - A different version of Bridges & Ridges

9 D group runners out today ...several were away in France running the 'Disney Half' and several people were resting before the Macc Half Marathon.

The running today was excellent - we hardly stopped and managed 6 miles including about 300' of ascent. Some very good effort by everyone today and very good looping as well.

Sorry we had to dash off at the end...we had 900 goody bags to fill!

A run is not a run without a Selfie (apparently)

Saturday 17th September - Twisted Hollins Hobble

10 D group runners today on a very beautiful Macclesfield morning. Blue skies, just the right side of cool and lots of happy faces !

The route was perfect [ undulations made for good training], with fabulous views in all directions.

With the Macc half in mind, some runners chose to run to the start point and then run home too! Well done Vanessa and Dip, great effort!

Thanks from Mel & Kim to everyone for a lovely sociable run, some fab looping and excellent cool down stretching at the end with food & drinks in the Cafe to finish!

Thursday 15th September - recce of Macc Half route

Meet ready for a 2.15pm start at the track. The plan is to run the Macc Half route (13.1 miles) in order to look out for any safety hazards along the route.

We will be aiming for around 2hrs (so just under 10 minute miles).

Saturday 10th September - Warrowlowhead Wonder

The start

12 D group runners were out for a lovely 6 mile run around Teggs Nose, Walker Barn & Macc Forest.

The route was 'challenging' (sorry) and the hills were relentless.

Well done to everybody for 'digging deep' and experiencing that sense of achievement at the top of Saddler's Way.

The post-run cake and natter was brilliant - thanks!
