Janine from Promoting Trafford got in touch to give us some publicity so we were delighted to see the finished article! You can read it here!
A bit of ParkRun tourism to Fletcher Moss
The relatively new ParkRun in Didsbury at Fletcher Moss welcomed us with open arms today! What a friendly bunch of people! We were impressed by the lovely supportive marshals, but not so much about the hilly course!!! Ha ha - who knew?!!!
When big kids bring little kids to run...
Whilst we’re an adult only club, we do love a good family outing that gets the kids involved! Cue our second annual trip to Glo in the Park which includes a 5k run around lots of glowing lights and neon paint! What’s not to love?!!!
We don't just run... we eat curry too!
Lovely to have the Urmston group together this evening for a curry at a local restaurant!
Manchester half marathon success
We had a fantastic time this morning at the Manchester half marathon! So many of our runners decided to take on this epic challenge for the first time - we had some deciding last minute to “give it a go”, we had one runner who was too nervous last year to run it but this year came back with a determined smile, and we even had one of our runners come over from North Carolina to take part! A big thank you too to all our marshals who helped the organisers on the day - we know it’s not an easy job and are grateful for the volunteering of your time!
New running coach announcement...
Meet Ian and Pam! Both today completed their run leader training and now join the 16-strong running coaching team of #MileShy! Both Ian and Pam bring different qualities and strengths to the role of coach, and both are loved by our runners. Huge congratulations to the pair of them, fantastic to have you on board!
Kath and Bronagh - once running beginners... now completing their 50th ParkRun!
Huge congratulations to Kath and Bronagh who today completed their 50th ParkRun! Trying to complete just one ParkRun used to be an epic challenge for these two ladies - it’s amazing how far they’ve come since joining the club! Well done ladies!
#MileShyClub Old Trafford starts at Limelight
We were delighted to start new sessions at Limelight in Old Trafford this evening. It was lovely to see some new faces turn up to support the session and give running a try for the first time. Everyone completed their first mile, and we are sure there will be plenty of success stories to come! Well done everyone for getting their trainers on and coming to see us!
#MileShyClub to launch in Old Trafford!
We know that a lot of our runners travel in from all areas of Manchester to make our Sale and Urmston sessions. That's why, from the 25th September, we are (yes really!) launching the #MileShyClub in OLD TRAFFORD! How cool is this?!!! We'll be offering new beginner running sessions on a Wednesday evening at 6.30pm at Limelight and there will be free refreshments after for those of us who like a natter. Still just £2 a session. LAUNCH DATE is 3 weeks today - get yourself down to support us, we KNOW this one is going to be popular!
Race for Life return proves moving and memorable
Great morning at #RaceforLife today. Our guys and girls took on the 10k at Heaton Park, but this particular race always means so much more to us than "just another race". Today was not about times, it was about reflecting on those we have loved and lost through cancer, and showing our support for those currently living it. #noonegetsleftbehind Thanks to the Manchester Evening News for taking some great photos of us on the day!
