SPARINTERS Social - Christmas Theme Run & Drinks

We decided to keep things simple (ish) and have our social straight after running on Wednesday 3rd December. 

We will go for a short run (route will be posted nearer to the time) and then head over to the cork for some drinks!

However there is a twist: Everyone needs to dress up Christmas theme for the run... Which means we want to see santa hats, father christmas onesies, rudolf ears! Be as creative as you want! And don't forget to bring some change for some drinks after! The best dressed will win a little prize!

We will be meeting outside Waterside Court at 5:30pm.

We hope to see you all there!

Create Great Running Routes With 'Map My Run'

Just thought I would share the website that I use to create running routes for the club. It is absolutely great - it enables you to map your runs, calculates the distance of the run, choose from over 70 million existing routes, track your activity via the mobile app, log your food, and share with friends!

Please Sponsor Me For The Bath Half 2015 - Raising Money for Dorothy House Charity

This will be my third year in a row running the Bath Half Marathon, and this year I want to challenge myself to run it in under 1 hour and 45 minutes. It is a great event where I can push myself to achieve my fitness goals, as well as raising money for a great cause.

Each year, I choose to raise money for a different charity. This year I wanted to support a local charity; I have chosen to raise money for Dorothy House Hospice Care in Bath, who offer physical, psychological, social and spiritual care to patients and their families facing life threatening illness, death or bereavement.
I will be extremely grateful if you can donate even the smallest amount of money for Dorothy House Charity, who have made a positive impact in the lives of many patients and their families!

Please follow the link below to my Just Giving page to donate.

Walkjogrun.net is a brilliant website to search for running routes. It is free and easy way to create running routes or find other member running routes. You can use it to calculate distance, calculate pace, track calories burned running, explore new running routes, log your runs in the free training diary available, find out about new races and find cheap running gear.

It is also available as an iPhone app for your phones!
