Important / Road Safety: as the first training sessions will be taking place at 7.15pm, it may still be quite dark. We would ask everyone to try and wear Hi-Vis training vests where possible or other available running attire with reflective material. To ensure your safety and the safety of those around you, while running on roads and pathways we ask you to ensure you run in smaller groups and be mindful of other pedestrians on the foothpaths, as well as traffic on the roadways.
