Oh dear AR. That's rubbish and just the sort of thing that puts people off clubs. Do they have other groups going out? There are usually a selection of runs to choose from at my club including intervals/hills or similar. Plus there's another night for slower/beginners/run-walk.

I'd respectfully suggest it's not the right club for you, is there any others nearby?

Btw at my previous club I only went to the ladies nights, I never felt fast enough for the full club night. At my current club I don't go very often, but recently I've been very happy with the slowest group-enough to push me without totally dying!

AR that sounds an unpleasant way for a club to make you feel included

It's difficult. It's the nearest one to me and I have a kind of love/hate relationship with it.

That's really bad AR. We split into 6 groups at mine. ORANGE. O for the beginners through to E for the fast folk. Orange is the club colours!

Our slowest group is run-walk and none of the groups is allowed to leave anyone behind even if someone has trouble keeping up

You need to get them to start a beginners' group so then they have to accommodate slower runners, AR :)

About This Thread

Maintained by iRan
Welcome to the 700 miles in 2016 thread, everybody welcome :-)

The thread motto is:

'700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient'

All you have to do is run about 1.91 miles per day or 13.46 miles per week or 58.33 miles per month and take a picture when you get to 700 miles of either you or the spot you reached the target or both if you want to. And if you go under or over 700 miles nobody will mind.

bunting and 700er medals are often spotted around here.

Happy running :-)
