Thank you ponte_ricky for your lovely welcoming and encouraging post

Mytholmroyd is much closer to where I am so I had already picked that out as the club to join, I think, I am still contemplating.

The main issues for me are first, that I am already on the tops, so it makes no sense for me to go down into the valley to run, at least not until my runs get long enough that I am not left with much choice which is probably a good while off yet. And second, getting to Todmorden or Mytholmroyd is a significant walk (25-30 mins to the train station) and then a train ride - it eats up so much time when I can just go out and run.

Having said that I am interested in the events, maybe I should just get in touch with the club organisers and see what's happening, there might be something that piques my interest! The monthly trips to different pubs sounds good

Thank you again and also - welcome to the forum - good to have another active new person around - especially one so close to home
