Club Macc Forest run Sunday July 18th
After 10 miles around Macclesfield Forest and the surrounding area, in steady rain, everyone still looks cheerful.
Our next training run is Sunday Aug 8, the plan being to hire a coach or mini bus, pick up from the rugby club or other suitable venue, take everyone to Rudyard Lake,then follow The Gritstone Trail for the fourteen mile run to the Church House inn at Langley.
If you're in a hurry to go home , you could always leave your car at the Church House , and be picked up by the bus en-route. This part of the Gritstone Trail covers some spectacular terrain, with views as far as Snowdon in clear weather. Although a hilly route its well within most members capability, and with it being on a Sunday no worry about it getting dark! I would expect the faster runners to take just under 2 hours, slower ones about 3.
Probable timings:-
pick up 8.30am Rugby Club
start 9.30am Start from Rudyard
Bus leaves Langley 1.00pm arrives rugby club 1.30pm
We shall order transport to suit our numbers, therefore avoid disapointment and let me know if you can make it, we'll save your place. Sandwiches will be provided.
