First pompoms of March!

[linda9389]

How can we be in March already?

We have a splendid start to the month with lots of awesome VRBs heading to their start lines; so, let's turn a blind eye to the weather forecast, get ourselves into position, pom poms aloft, ready to raise a massive cheer for our wonderful runny friends. At time of posting, all our events are taking place on Sunday:

⭐️First up we go to South Wales where  OldManRunning and  Cowladyrunning are taking on the City of Newport HM. This will be OMR's first official HM and we can't wait to give him his shiny HU badge. For CLR it's a last minute entry, but often they turn out to be the best kind of races! Have fun guys.

⭐️Next we move south and east, across the border, where  Curlygurly2 and  Joster will be running the Cambridge HM. With a new route this year - taking in four of the University colleges - be sure to go the right way CG2, 26.1k is far enough! Hope the knees hold out Joster! Enjoy!!!

⭐️Then a little further south and a little further east,  Kalessin will be tackling the Chelmsford HM; hopefully it will be drier and less muddy than your training runs have been, although the forecast doesn't necessarily support that! Keep smiling!!!

⭐️ Finally, we head a bit further south to Kent where  Langley-Loper will be running her 6th HM, the Paddock Wood HM. Whether you attempt that PB or decide to run with your friend LL, this will be a fast one so we'll be sure to turn up on time with our pompoms! Have a blast!!!

A grand bunch of races there and an awesome bunch of runners! Wishing bon courage and the best of days to you all.

If we've missed anyone who's running an event this coming weekend, then let us know below so we can send support your way too.

Have a great weekend everyone

Your team  Irishprincess ,   Beachcomber66 , and me! xxx
