**Meeting at Beversbrook Sports Facility (unless stated otherwise). Leaving at 7pm**
Tuesday evening runs explained:
Calne Running Club has a group of 7 leaders who, between them, lead the club's Tuesday night social runs. Tuesday night is your opportunity to get the miles in your legs at a more leisurely pace that suits you. To accommodate this, we organise anything up to three runs to suit varying paces and distances.
Tuesday night social runs are roughly split as follows:
Group A – Roughly 9 minute miling or faster for 5 miles or more
Group B – Roughly 9 to 11 minute miling for 3-6 miles
Group C- Roughly 11 minute miling and above for 3-5 miles
Each group will be led by a minimum of one qualified leader. A tail runner will be allocated to each group.
** PLEASE NOTE** These runs and distances are by no means set in stone or are meant to be prescriptive. We encourage people to push themselves or to go in whichever group they would like to join. The groups have been designed to roughly keep runners in more compact groups to make them safer, easier to lead and more social. However, varying paces in each group will always occur and if people wish to push themselves they can move from one group to another from week to week. Enabling people to run with people of similar abilities should maximise enjoyment whilst maintaining safety and making sure nobody gets lost or left behind.
Please be aware that you must always:
1. Wear the appropriate clothing and footwear for the run, be it on or off road.
2. Wear hi viz clothing during dark evenings.
3. Listen to your run leader's instructions
4. Always loop back to the slowest runner in the group at regular points as advised by your leader
4. Be responsible for your own safety and do not run if injured.
5. Do not listen to portable music players during the runs.
New routes will be added by our leaders over time to give more variation, particularly in winter when choices are more limited.
**Please keep an eye on our Facebook page** where runs will be posted as changes can be made by our leaders to try to think up some new and enjoyable routes for you to try out.
Nights where there will be no led run on a Tuesday:
Throughout the summer there are a few nights where no social runs will be led.
