We have some fabulously varied locations this week and, after weeks and months of training, our racing VRBs are ready to take on their various challenges and would love lots of pompoms for support. So let’s get those vocal cords warmed up and the pompoms fluffed up and ready for lots of waving for our superstars 🥳
⭐️ First up on Sunday we will be in London where Mudita11 will be kicking off our pompom waving at the Vitality London 10K. The start line is on the Mall and the route takes in many of the capital’s landmarks and finishes in front of Buckingham Palace! How cool is that? No doubt, there will be loads of photos taken and fabulous memories made along the way Mudita 😍

⭐️ Leaving London we head to Warrington where history will be made on Sunday. The Warrington Running Festival 10K will be the “world’s first free to enter, chip timed, road closed run”! And our very own Time_Lord will be there. Apparently 20,000 people applied for the ballot but only 6,000 places were released. Well done TL on this achievement alone!
“The event has been made possible by the Runthrough Foundation with the aim of improving the physical and mental health in communities across the nation through running”.
How exciting TL that you will be part of history.

⭐️ It wouldn’t be a weekend without Katnap and TailChaser running a race! And this one is a biggie 💪 So this Sunday they will be taking on a 20 MILER around an auto drome, the Running GP Bedford Autodrome. That’s six laps to you and me! All done on a traffic-free racing circuit.
I believe this run is part of their training before the Amsterdam Marathon in a few weeks so we’re sending you both oodles of support and luck on the circuit. Vroom vroom to both of you 🏃♀️🏃♂️

⭐️ After that mammoth run our pompoms have no time to rest as they are needed in Norfolk where Hedgehogs123 will be toeing the start line of the Run Sandringham 10K. This gorgeous route takes place around the Royal estate grounds and local roads and trails of the countryside. Sounds as if this might be a regular for you Hedgehogs 😍 as I think you did it last year.

⭐️ Before we go, just a little reminder that our very own GB athlete, RunBrianRun is still in Pescara, Italy for the Masters European Championships. These go on until the 27th.
Brian will be running in the M60 100m and 200m individual races and potentially in the M60 4x100m GB relay team. We are thinking of you Brian and sending you loads of luck and excited pompom waving 🍀🥳 🇬🇧

What an amazing array of VRBs!! We wish every single one of you good luck and Bon Courage for your various events 🍀🤗🤩 Enjoy yourselves!
