Hi any of you KCAC types out there, I'm a returnee and would like to join a club. You guys would be my nearest, and the beginners group would be ideal except for one thing...
...I'm no laydee! How come it's women-only, no blokes? I don't think I'm quite up to the wednesday night seven-miler yet, and I haven't got any road shoes...
(I suppose I could always dress up?):p
Why not come along and join in anyway? There's a few different groups go out on a Thursday. The laydees might let you join them!
Come to the White Lion in Kildwick tonight and come out with us, remember your headtorch if you're coming off road.
Good idea K1M. A steady run out followed by free chips and a pint of Landlord. What more could anyone want? :cool:Quote:

:cool:
Sod it, I might trot along - my daughter has just told me that I'm taking her to Skipton at 6 pm tonight so I may as well do a run while I'm there. Will you have finished the run (not the beer) by 8?
Got an address for this pub, or is it obvious from the main Colne/Keighley road? I'll be coming from Colne direction.
Cheers Brett. Fingers crossed I get all me jobs done in time. Nearly done with the presentations!

Means I got to pick up a hire car now for tomorrow. Might not be able to make tonight's run...but I'm gonna do my darndest.
Wish me luck!
Scott they were talking about going out with a running club - Not wharfedale jogging society.Quote:

Well thanks brett and millipede - a cracking run to.... um where ever the heck we ran to. I ought to make the effort to become a fully fledged K&C Wednesday night part timer :rolleyes:
Now to work out how to do Kettlewell and not get stabbed to death with the kitchen scissors afterwards!
Oh and drat, drat, drat for missing antisocial :D
Turned up about 15mins late. Too late for the headtorchers, but in time to tag along with the roadies. But not before bumping into Aunty Sally. You confounded my expectations too, sir. You seemed to be a decent, friendly chap (or is that supposed to be a secret?;))
P. Bear, reckon 7mi is about right (7 too many in a beat up pair of Fell Dancers).
Good to meet Millipede, Penguin, and of course Brett afterwards. Thanks for allowing me to join you. Will bear that in mind next time I miss a Tues run with Clayton.
Stolly, it's my round next time. Cheers.:)
Two groups
Those on the road run about 7 miles, but there are plenty of places to cut short. The group reconvenes every 2 miles or so - no-one gets left behind
The off road run sets off at the same time and we do what the group wants to do - tonight was a bit shorter than usual due to the inclement weather and the lure of the mushrooms and potato skins in the boozer - oh, and Landlord and Daleside's Old Leg Over

Managed to stay awake (just!) but won't be late to bed
Got something planned for Sunday or I might have taken up your offer. Have a good run :)

Bought a mountain bike 2 weeks ago, first ride was Whinlatter duathlon - crashed and handlebars went into my left side, had a permanent stitch like pain that appears to tug when I run and means I cannot go far or stretch out. Dr's tested kidneys for damage but reckon it is muscle pull. Does not seem to bew getting better or worse. Bit frustrating as I was just starting to get fitness back after laying off for almost a year till july. Just withdrawn from the Calderdale relay team because of it.Quote:

If so...maybe you and Scotty can form a double act? :D Actually, I was serious! Me n'Grifter'll be doing it as a team ('im cycling, me having a trot round ;)) That'd be a good race twixt the pairs methinks...Quote:

Excuse me - look at the size of Silsden, it has a Thai restaurant, a bistro style Italian, several estate agents wine bars and a duck pond. It only has its own running club cos it members are scared to come into Keighley:pQuote:
