The Monday evening run, 7pm from Renmore Church, is a key session for many of those who join in. It's normally about an hour or so long and covers 7-8miles around the city. Many of the club stalwarts keep this run going week-in, week-out but anybody is welcome to join for all or some of it. [Note: On Bank holiday weekends, 1st Jan included, the run normally moves to 11am.]

The route varies and takes account of the weather and available light. Of course this time of year both can be pretty miserable yet the run is a great way to clock up miles. It's good for overcoming the temptation to slouch on the couch on a wet and windy evening.

Despite the fog and cold last Monday evening more than a dozen runners were out. As usual there were as many women as men, and as many GCH members as guests.

Next time you're looking for a run in company get to Renmore at 7pm on a Monday.
