Monday Evening Sessions

The Monday Evening Senior Endurance Group meets at 6.50pm every Monday of the year except for Bank Holidays. From Late September to mid-April, most sessions are on the Track at Woodbank Stadium, apart from some hill sessions. From mid-April to late September, most sessions are in Woodbank Park. How do you know if this is the right group for you? If you can run a 5k between 17 and 22 minutes, you will fit right in. If you are quicker or slower than this, get in touch before taking part and we will almost certainly be able to accommodate you: Steve Shaughnessy 07872 556371 or steveshaughnessy5 [at] gmail [dot] com
