Yes, you guessed it, this week we have a route from our Steve Austin, that he set for us a while back, when he was king of the road not king of the dance floor on the rave scene.
So, with Steve as this week’s Routemaster 🚌, fasten your seat belts and let’s go ……as we head NW to the other side of the Pembury Bypass and then back through the industrial estate before a return to the Nevill.
 
Whether you are returning from skiing, preparing for Saturday’s XC, marathon training run or just want to run with your friends, there is something for you.
 
The long route is 7.5 miles with a medium route of 6.6 miles and a short route 4.6 miles – there is a Goldilocks route for you.
 
This week’s route is mostly well lit but please try and stay in groups as much as possible, looking out especially for guests, newer members and wear something bright with a head torch an optional accessory (especially for Blackhurst Lane)
 
Current forecast for Wednesday is for a dry but cold 1C.
 
Tea Total Trevor is hosting us in the bar afterwards, selling the finest beer (Harveys), wine and soft drinks in the immediate vicinity, at special prices, with his crack sidekick, Rocky, so why not relax and have a drink with your friends before you head home.
 
 
7:30 prompt start from the Nevill – change rooms, showers and bar all open – it’s time to commit !
