Chris

p.s Don't forget to bring a bottle of water, something to munch perhaps and a change of clothes for afterwards if we're going in to the pub.

I am still up for the run at Old Sodbury on Sunday. I will be driving and can take passengers if required. It is still start at 09.30 at the Old Dog Inn.

Let me know if anything changes

Does anyone want a lift up to Old Sodbury ?

Regards

Chris

p.s We'll be meeting at Old Sodbury ( see previous Google map links from my original post) at 9.30. This allows us time to drive to Wootton for the start of the run at about 10 am. We'll finish about 12 and be back in Wootton at the Royal Oak at 12.30 for a swift half.

Regards

Chris

Sorry, I'll have to abort. My clutch is bust. (No euphemism).

Apologies.

I would like to do a Sunday run ( at last you cry) of along the Cotswold Way, the Wootton under edge to Old Sodbury section. It's about 12 miles long. A mix of fields, roads, tracks through woods with some very steep hills to necgotiate up and down. I would like to meet at 9.30 am at Old Sodbury, just opposite the pub The Old Dog Inn along Cotswold Lane. From there we fill the cars up we need, leaving the rest parked up in a rather nice viollage so they should be safe, and head for Wootton Under Edge. Park on the B4058, opposite Valley Rd. The run takes us down Valley Rd, on to the Cotswold Trail, which is clearly marked.

Old Sodbury

Wootton -U-E http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&source=hp&q=old+sodbury+pub&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=N&tab=wl

The run will take about 2 hours, aiming for an average pace of about 9 minutes mile pace with fast bits run at around 7 minutes mile pace ( allows for the odd stop and admire the view). Probably best to take water and perhaps a mars bar to keep you going. We'll run this as a group so no one is to get left behind.

On returning to Old Sodbury, we drive back to Wootton, pick up the other cars and head for the The Royal Oak - on B4058 on the way back to Bristol - in the town for a well deserved drink. I think they serve food too.

I'd like to point out that I'm only going to run this if the weather is ok. If it's pouring with rain or very foggy, then this run isn't worth doing and would be no fun...and yes, I know I'm a big wooss. Can you please let me know if you're up for it. I will keep an eye out for the weather forecast and will confirm we have a go on Friday/Sat early pm. We will need at least two cars too!!!!

Regards

Chris

Good to see Eight (including Sam and myself ) pounding the streets.

Rob

10.5 miles, 8 min/mile. Up the portway, and back into a headwind. Fair number of other runners out, including several SRC members :) Rob managing to attract the attention of Dave S who was running across the other side of the river on the towpath with a bellowing "DAAAAVE!!" - obviously refined from years of football chanting! Nearly took my left ear out of action...

Overall not the most exciting route, but good to familiarise yourself with the path taken on the Bristol Half.

Part of route of 1/2 Marathon .

8 miles ish. return to Greville Smyth
