Weekend Round-up
Hello. If you’re looking for someone to run with this weekend, here are a few options! Let us know if you’d like to suggest another run…
These aren't 'proper' Slowies sessions so may not have the usual set-up of a lead, middle and backstop, but these are runs planned by our members and you’re welcome to join. Running with others is so much easier than running along.
*Saturday 8am*
Slowies Saturday session meeting outside Pollokshields Burgh Hall. There tends to be a couple of groups, running/walking between 3k and 6k, and a variety of paces, depending on who's there.
*Saturday 9.30am*
Parkrun time. This weekend I think we have Slowies walking/running/volunteering at Pollok and Queen’s parkruns. Check the relevant page before you go to make sure your favourite parkrun is going ahead, and don’t forget your barcode.
*Saturday 10am*
Up and Running Events: Kinneil Estate 5/10k/Half Marathon
*Saturday, time TBC*
Iain is doing 27km if you're feeling like a stretch, further details TBC
*Sunday 8am*
Sunday long run, starting at Moyra Jane’s. Usual pace around 8:00-8:30 min/km. We’ve currently got folk wanting 7k and 10k so someone cleverer than me will come up with a route to please everyone!
*Sunday 8am*
Also Sunday long run, starting at Moyra Janes. This group will be doing 10k at a pace of around 6-6:30min/km, route tbc
*Sunday, TBC*
Audra is looking for chatty run buddies for 16km, at a pace between 7:10-8:30 min/km, may start with the 8am MJ crew, details TBC
The specifics of weekend runs are usually discussed in the Slowies WhatsApp group. It’s always a good idea to comment (and click on the poll that’s about to appear there) to let folk know if you’re hoping to join a specific run.
