Nigel's Murder Mile!

Thanks to Nigel Shaw's suggestion, Augusts track session turned into a timed mile. Thanks to all runners that turned out on a horrible night, although to be fair the rain stopped in time for us to enjoy a good session. We split into three groups of ability and amazing times were made by all, I am sure there were PBs and possibly a few club records.

There was definitely a fun side too, Nigel brought a hooter and Jo took charge of sounding it off (the hooter) to let everyone know when they were on the last lap. Each group cheered the next group of runners as they finished a lap, in true BR style. Thanks to Nigel chocolate was enjoyed by all some a little more than others, not mentioning any names!

Amazingly we were all done and dusted by 7.30. We could have gone home but Lee had other ideas, as if we hadn't worked hard enough he put everyone into teams and had us doing relays. Thanks to Nigel for timing, to Linda Carey and Sue Gallagher for scoring, to Joe Percival for overseeing everything ran smoothly (and the hooter) and Dave Lonsdale for being the funnel bouncer. All I had to do was run, Well maybe a bit of bossing about but that's normal isn't it!

We are based at the Baildon Rugby & Cricket Sports Club on Heygate Lane, off Jenny Lane, Baildon, Shipley BD17 6RS. 

We meet on Thursdays at 7:00pm at the cricket pavilion for our main club run. The routes are planned so we all meet back at the sports club at approximately the same time.  Showers are available in the cricket pavilion and afterwards we unwind with a few drinks and food in the bar.

We train on Saturdays at 10:00am, meeting at the Bandstand in Roberts Park. Free parking is available nearby in the public car park with the round turning circle just before the Titus Salt school on Higher Coach Road, Baildon (BD17 5RH is the nearest postcode) - for beginners and improvers.

We also train on Tuesdays at 7:00pm, meeting at the car park on Jenny Lane. Our sessions include speed work, circuits and hill reps. On the first Tuesday of the month we do track work at University Academy, Green Head Road, Keighley BD20 6EB.

Please message info@baildonruunners.co.uk to let us know if you're interested in joining us for the first time, we will confirm the details of our next club run and assist with any queries you may have.
