We welcome all to try out our track sessions held for many years now on the athletics field of Darrick Wood school (see map, to the right).

It's a 9am start, and usually finishes within the hour. A warm up / stretch session, is followed by a variety of programmes and repetition work designed to improve speed work. Its very enjoyable and exhausting and the crowd as you would expect with Road Runners, is always friendly and welcoming!  

If you have any questions about the Saturday morning sessions and want to know more then please contact Paul

5k Time Trial - 21st June 2008

The plan for this inaugural time trial was for road runners to get limbered up before sunday's 10k and 2k race marshalling duties. unfortunately, it seems that rain affected play and in the end, a die-hard group of 11 started out on 12 and a half laps of the athletics track.

MJR's daughter ensured that there was no missed laps!  Here are the results::
