Tuesday run XXXXXXVII

[Kristy]

Special bank holidays only make Tuesdays come faster! You are all
invited to come ringroad running. Oh yes!

Meet 7pm Castle Hill Car park (the one next to the Castle pub and
Castle mound).

Weather: Positively tropical..... 1900 Medium-level cloud 16 °C
SW 7 mph visibility: Very Good.
Consider bringing a bottle of water.

8.4 mile route:

8.1 mile route:
http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=4478865
It's the same as the 8.4 one but you turn right off Long Road just
after one of the hills and follow the off-road path past the stream
and the allotments until you rejoin at the Trumpington Rd traffic
lights where you turn onto the footpath.

There will be a car for stuff and some lovely, lovely people. Come
join us! If you're driving, watch the bad closedness of Shire Hall Car
Park though >-(

*Vernon (last spotted at mile six of a marathon) is excused as long as
he posts below to tell us about his marahashing adventures.
* People who promised attendance last night - Pingu-rhino, Winston and
Alex G with Jeremy wavering (oh, that was just the alcohol)
* Alison! Come! Josie! Come! William! Come! Beerstop! Come!
*Steve H can run faster than a train and will soon be joining us for a
RRR so I've ordered some good weather for us to practice in.
* No biting.

Poem of the week:

Running On!

The dusk is down on the river meadows,
The moon is climbing above the fir,
The lane is crowded with creeping shadows,
The gorse is only a distant blur;
The last of the light is almost gone,
But hark! They're running!
They're running on !
The count of the years is steadily growing;
The Old give way to the eager Young;
Far on the hill is the horn still blowing,
Far on the steep are the hounds still strung.
Good men follow the good men gone;
And hark! They're running!
They're running on!

(William Henry Ogilvie)

See you all later!
