Wednesdayish Run – Hills of Silverdale

News

As the club is no longer in “business as usual” mode and I know how much you love those Wednesday night routes, we have decided to send a route each week that Harriers might like to do at any time during the course of the week. There won’t be any leader boards and no one will be checking up on you, but it gives Harriers an excuse to mix their routines up a bit from their usual array of runs.

Gem Stilliard is this week’s Routemaster 🚌, fasten your seat belts and here we go ……

Gem says – definitely a strength training route! But it’s probably a good time to work on that! Lol

Phew 😅

You must wear something bright and hi vis if running in the dark (somehow – Ed).

Any offers for setting routes gratefully received (especially if someone from Tonbridge wants to set a local route that offers TW residents an opportunity to sample its delights). Off road routes especially welcome.
