There are always opportunities for a shorter run should you need it.

For a shorter run, just go to Hockley Woods, same time, 8.30am Sundays

Thought it funny. Was wondering how long it would take someone to comment

I'll stay off it from now on

I was looking out for you ....

You feel free to butt in when ever you like

You certainly don't find Karl (who is doing a 10 mile training run on sunday morning at 7.30am starting at the top of Belton Way, 9 minute mile pace) blatantly advertising for people to go along...

JBD will be running round to the corner shop at around 9.30am if anyone wants to join me....

In calling this thread: Bobby's Sunday Runs.....

I thought Mikey was making a cruel reference to the incident mentioned in MM2's thread:

However, we were being discreet, as we noticed Bobby disappear off the track for a while, so being true Gents, we hung back thus enabling her to retain her modesty

Bobbi, We love you!!

JBD: not joining us this week then?

JBD · #3 Joined: 15 Sep 2007 Posts: 317

Hi Mike,

Karl has clearly lost confidence with Hockley Woods after us getting lost so quickly last week, hence the sea front route advertised...probably try and do that one so I'm back nice and early to do my usual day of playing power rangers, doctor who villains, world cup and wimbledon final re-enactments and splash bomb water sliding....the running is the easy part of my day !

Have fun, maybe join you next time we do the woods...

bobby · #2 Joined: 06 Apr 2008 Posts: 257

JBD you should have joined my group. Your face looked the same colour as your t shirt when I passed you. (green).

JBD · #3 Joined: 15 Sep 2007 Posts: 317

?????????!!!!

Well I was wearing my green vest, and I did cross over a few people running round about Scrub Lane near John Burrows, but I didn't see you Bobby....I feel bad if I blanked you !

My face was green ? Bright red I can believe....!

Did a lovely leisurely jog with my brother in law and got us lost in Belfairs Woods....poor bloke only wanted just over 5, ended up doing 7.5 !

Happy Sunday running everyone !

Should of come to the woods with me & Mike, I stayed on paths I know and didn't get lost once

This Sunday l4th Dec we will be meeting at the car park at Leigh Station to run a straight out and back run along the seafront. (Nice and flat). Aiming for 10 miles but obviously anyone can turn at their hoped for halfway point. Look forward to seeing you.

gmike · #2 Joined: 26 Mar 2008 Posts: 259 Location: Benfleet

Hi Bobby,

May I suggest meeting on Belton Way for a meet point as it's free parking ... the station carpark is pay&display and will set you back £2

(I save the carpark as a special treat for Karl's Benfleet 15 reruns as I can't make it back up the hill!!)

... hope I haven't confused matters as I'll probably be doing the cross country anyway!!

Mike.

bobby · #2 Joined: 06 Apr 2008 Posts: 257

Thanks Mike. Does that charge apply to Sundays then. If so I will have to get there first and rediret anyone that arrives.

gmike · #2 Joined: 26 Mar 2008 Posts: 259 Location: Benfleet

Yep £2 on a Sunday.

I think you can get away with it if starting early and back by 9:00 but otherwise £2.

Parking available along the left hand side (going up) of Belton Way.

bobby · #2 Joined: 06 Apr 2008 Posts: 257

Thanks Mike. Okay everyone, make that parking in Belton way just down from the traffic lights. See you there.

bobby · #2 Joined: 06 Apr 2008 Posts: 257

This Sunday 21st meeting at John Burrows at 8.30 approx l0 miles. Anybody coming along will be required to wear something festive. Well done to all of you this week, hope you enjoyed the run as much as I did.
