I thought some of the fairer sex might be interested in this.

Ladies night at Accelerate

For the ladies amongst you . . .
. . . . an informal evening of running chat, advice and the latest snazzy gear. Come and enjoy!

* Running Shoe Offers
* Safe Night Running Tips
* Fashion Show - the Smiley Paces model the latest running kit
* Lifestyle Balance

Full disclosure as I don't want to be seen as advertising less AS starts on me.
Although I do not gain financially from Acellerate, they are friends,

I have offered to lend a hand with the fitting side but alas I'm not allowed :w00t:

No offence to you Ian or the shop BUT I find this such an odd concept, surely in these days of equality Ladies only occasions are just encouraging inequality,

Bit like “womens hour” on radio 4 – surely this should have been axed 15 years ago.

Understand this point but it's still a very real thing - there is a ladies only club near us that has about 80 members. Its not that there aren't other options available to them, just that they prefer to run in a ladies-only group, the Smiley Paces. We've had a few ladies through the door at Porter Valley that have got wind of them and switched over (In the Porter Valley group itself there is a rough 50/50 split of ladies and gents) so there must be a 'market' for it, however outdated the concept might seem to some. (Incidentally the Smiley Paces are a very well run club by our very own Forumite, Mozzy)

And to be fair, I don't think there would be many takers amongst the gents for a talk on sports bra fittings...

...well, possibly the fitting bit...:w00t:

Women's hour on the other hand...
