Hello you gorgeous lot With our Cto5k programme now completed, Dave H has sorted the shorter distances for the 5k routes. So, if you are a 3k runner and thinking of making the jump, tonight is the night 💪👊👍 Otherwise, I will spend some time with you who are not able to make the jump, to help you with a plan to aid the transition. See you tonight 😀 Darren

Well then.......10 weeks on and the Cto5k runners have smashed it at the Pontefract parkrun! You were all amazing 💛 It’s been incredible to watch each and everyone of you through your journey of running. It warms the heart to see how you have developed and the joy and emotion shown today. Be really proud of yourselves, you have put the work in to get the reward! The next step of your journey begins on Monday, with another 5k, then who knows where you will be in 6 months? A huge thanks to Andy & the run leaders who have given up their time to support this programme - they have made it happen 👍 Enjoy your weekend, enjoy the success of your parkrun. See you Monday 💛🖤🏃‍♀️🏃🏻👍 Darren

Parkrun is on! See you in a bit 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻👍😀

Hello you gorgeous lot, It’s been quite a journey over the last 10 weeks for the Cto5k runners. Some struggling to run 30 seconds, now running around 4 miles. Quite amazing. Starting with 154 people in week 1, we have around 50 people in week 10. With most being able to do the parkrun on Saturday (weather dependant). I hope the programme has given you all a life changing skill that will take you to different levels. Running is great & sorts out a lot of stress in your life. Now, go and enter some races, enjoy the running, meet new people....... As Mel & Andy have said, our run leaders & mentors are incredibly proud of your success in running. 💛🖤

Hello you lot...... As we enter our final week for the Cto5k runners they were spoilt by running up Holywell Lane & down Queens Park Hill! Nice 😉 Most running around 4 miles, it has been quite an amazing journey over the last 10 weeks. All of you inspirational people putting in so much effort! The Parkrun for the Cto5k is this weekend at Pontefract Park, if you’re running, please ensure you have registered and bring your printed barcode with you. If not, come along and support. We will be meeting early for photos etc. Thanks again to our mentors / run leaders for all the work they do, you make our community what it is 💛 See you all Thursday 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻👍😀

Hello you lovely lot, a message from Mark Ramskill: Thinking of doing a bus for Manchester marathon, just looking to see how many are definitely wanting a seat; runners, partners & kids etc. Let me know ASAP and in the mean time I’ll get a price. Cheers Mark (rammers) 😀🏃

Hello you gorgeous lot Many thanks on attending tonight, especially after today’s bizarre weather. The Cto5k runners are almost near the end of their programme. The 3k runners are doing well, just need to step forward towards the 5k - you will love it 👍 The rest of our running community looked strong out there. See you all Thursday 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻😃

Hello you beautiful people Really nice to see your smiling faces after the snow last week. Thanks for coming out, hope you all enjoyed the run. Looking forward to seeing you all on Thu. Couple of us have a debrief post run, as always, you are all invited to the ‘seam’. Unfortunately, my selfie is not “rammers standard”. 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻🍻👍😀

Hi everyone Looks like the snow is disappearing so we should be good for tomorrow night. Dave H is away so the routes: Long: Premier Way (Premier Way first) Short: Churchfield Lane Clockwise) 3k: Eastern Court, Glashoughton, Gala Bingo. Cto5k: Wait & see 😉 See you then 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻👍

Hi everyone With the best will in the world, we always try and run. However, safety first. So, tonight’s SRC will be cancelled. The Cto5k run is 20min continuous running, if the weather improves at the weekend, have a go. But safety first please. Stay safe everyone. Please share as much as possible. 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻🤞🙂

Evening you lovely lot. Thanks for braving the cold weather and running with us tonight! The Cto5k are in their 8th week, and progressing really well. Some real effort being put in and the results are showing 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻👍 The 3k runners got a high 5 tonight (you lucky lot 😉) Hope the 5 & 8k runners also enjoyed themselves? We will keep a close eye on the weather over the next couple of days and communicate if Thu could be affected. Otherwise, see you then 😀

Hello runners! Hope you are all well? As you know, our Cto5k programme ends with a Parkrun, which will be at Pontefract on the 17th March. It would be great if you can make it to support them. It would also be even better if you could wear your yellow army SRC top. 👍 Looking forward this year for new and bigger challenges (that are local and relatively cheap), we would like to suggest the following: Pontefract 10k - Sun 17th June Nostell 10k - Wed 18th July Canal Run 5k - Tue 3 July (be quick, as places limited) Pontefract 1/2 Marathon - Sun 30th Sept Have a look at their websites for details, prices, start times etc. We hope you see you at these events 🏃‍♀️🏃🏻👍😃 Darren
