GUESS WHAT? IT’S FRIDAY AND IT’S THAT TIME AGAIN! POM-POMS!!! 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[Irishprincess]

At the time of posting, we have four runners *(now 6) getting ready to toe the start lines of two fabulous races this coming week.. So get those arms prepped and ready for lots of energetic pompom waving in support for our fabulous VRBs 🥳

* edited to add   Runnin-g who is another night racer. This time at the Maverick Exposure Lights Dark Castle at Corfe Castle in Dorset. Runnin-g has opted for the 5K and the run wil be a mixture of trails and road. Good luck and enjoy it all, especially the hot food afterwards! 🍀

⭐️ First up, we have a race that’s now become part of a regular event in these parts. On Sunday we have    TailChaser ,    Katnap and    Shake-and-run and  Time_Lord all running the second of five 10K races of the Tempo Winter Series in Ilmington, Shipston on Stour. Most of you will remember that these are the races where sausages are given to runners at the finish line, so needless to say we are all looking forward to reading, in great detail please, about the toads-in-the-hole afterwards 😋 You must know these routes backwards by now guys!

⭐️ Our fourth racer this week is    MissUnderstanding who is braving the dark side and will be running the Severn Bridge 5 mile Night Race on Thursday. Oh’er 😯 Time for the glow sticks and torch to light your way MissU. Sounds like a lot of fun and we can’t wait to read all about it. No sausages afterwards here but there will be CAKE and hot drinks, so definitely worth crossing the finish line for 🍰🧁

Good luck to all of you 🍀 Have loads of fun and may the pompom cheers spur you on along the way. You know your VRBs are with you every step of the way 🥳📣🥰

Anyone else with an event this coming week? If so, tell us here and we’ll add you to our cheer.

From your team,    Beachcomber66 ,    linda9389 and me xxx

[Mudita11 Half Marathon in reply to linda9389]

Hi Linda. I was just writing a post when you added this comment. Basically I’ve got a fracture and some ACL damage. Good job I didn’t do that hilly night time trail last week. I might have come last!

Thank you! There’s snow forecast…I’m hoping it still runs!

Snow? A proper Christmas run !!☃️

[AlMorr Half Marathon in reply to Beachcomber66]

Good luck to everyone running this weekend, the latest forecast for snow is to fall in the north of England and the very south of Scotland on Monday.

[Runnin-g Half Marathon]

Late notification but I am running in a race tomorrow. It's the Maverick Exposure Lights Dark Castle 2024 held at Corfe Castle in Dorset. I opted for the 5k distance as we run in the dark on a mix of trails and road. Good luck to everyone else running in events this weekend and coming week 🙂

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon in reply to Runnin-g]

That would be this one Runnin-g ? Sounds like a great evening run with spooky deer eyes to watch you on your way. Night runs are special! Hot food afterwards too; great job!

[Irishprincess Administrator Half Marathon in reply to Runnin-g]

Oooh, good luck and enjoy 🍀 🤗 I’ll update the post 🥳

[IRunning 10 Miles]

Good luck all! I hope no one takes their dog to the Tempo Winter races as that could get messy!!

[Shake-and-run Half Marathon in reply to IRunning]

The organisers Tempo Events have 3 gorgeous golden retrievers. They are usually at their events. Clearly well trained to stay away from the sausages!!!

[Irishprincess Administrator Half Marathon in reply to IRunning]

😂 indeed…

[TailChaser Marathon in reply to Irishprincess]

Anyone know the Hairy Maclary books? Just picturing the dogs with sausages…

[RunBrianRun Half Marathon]

Good luck to you all!

[Cmoi Marathon]

Happy running all!

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon]

Enjoy  Runnin-g and Time_Lord . Hope you don't have to run up to the grassy hill to the castle at the end Runnin-g - I remember my kids rolling down that hill!!!

[00marks Marathon]

Bon courage to Katnap , TailChaser and Shake-and-run in your 10K. Go and smash it. Also to MissUnderstanding in your night race. Sounds like fun.

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon]

I'm also doing the Tempo Winter Series x

[Irishprincess Administrator Half Marathon in reply to Time_Lord]

I’ll add you to the post TL. Good luck and enjoy those sausages!

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon in reply to Time_Lord]

Oh wow, another sausage muncher! The weather doesn’t look too bad, but there looks to be some rain about in the afternoon. The freeze starts next week! Hope you have a great day out with the crazy gang Time_Lord. Probably not PB territory, but good strength building hills (not that you need it). Hope you have a great day.🙂

[TailChaser Marathon in reply to Beachcomber66]
