We’re coming up to the last month of the year and it’s time to tell us about any events you have so we can arrange a pompom cheer on the Friday beforehand. Remember to include the link to the event website so your VRBs can check out the gory details!
It’s a great opportunity to end the year with a run that you’ve perhaps not done before or to try something a bit different. Maybe you want to end the year with a bang by trying for a PB or, if you’ve not entered a race before, then this might be the time to give it a go.
Given the month there might be some Santa runs out there? Or it could be an Elf or Christmas Pudding run? I’ve seen quite a few of these advertised! I wonder if you get to eat some pudding afterwards? 😂
It’s also a great time for family fun runs. Have you entered one? If so, tell us here.
If you’ve entered an event then we wish you good luck with your training. You know you’ll have a ball 🥳
Hi IP. On 11th December I will be running in the Run Through Southampton 10k. Looking forward to it especially as it’s a flat route 😃 runthrough.co.uk/event/sout...
Irishprincess unfortunately I won’t now be running this race. Following minor surgery my consultant told me not to run for a few weeks 😱😱😱! Horrified at the thought but suppose I should be sensible 😭. I’m allowed to walk so intend to walk at parkruns for a few weeks
Sorry to hear this Mudita11; heal well and fast…..if the weather forecast for you promises anything like what appears to lie in store for us up here, you couldn’t have chosen a better time for a running break if you had to have one. Really frustrating for you. 🤗
Thanks IP. As Beachomber66 says, probably a good time for a short running break. I might even get my Christmas cards written before the last posting date this year for once 🤣
Oh what a shame Mudita11 . While sensible is frustrating, it's the best bet, and at least you won't be taking any chances in dodgy weather! Wishing you a full recovery.
Just the 3rd Winter Series 10k on the 27th for Katnap and I. Probably going to dress silly on our Christmas Eve parkrun though, does that count? I need to remember to take the legs up on my reindeer outfit, it got dangerous last year! And I need to dust off George & Harry, my Christmas Brooks shoes. 👍
It’s still sausages each run and a hoodie after all 5. Different colour hoodie though - I’m hoping for purple, they don’t seem to have done purple yet!
These are George and Harry. They don’t look quite this new anymore as it will be their third year. I love them, they have velvet laces 😍
Not sure if these links work but I'm aiming to do the Soup run on Dec 18th and the Abominable Snowman 10k on Dec 31st ! Both muddy local Trail runs! 😁xxx
Hi there, on the 11th December I will be running a ‘Yuletide Yomp 10k run’ through the grounds of Tatton Park. It will be my first ever race I’ve entered but I’m going to keep it slow and steady wearing some Xmas gear ☺️runnorthwest.co.uk/pages/ta...
