Wednesday
Due to the heat warning, we’ll be adjusting the Wednesday Club run session to prioritize safety. Expect a short route where you can pick your preferred distance, an easy conversational pace, and plenty of opportunities for jeffing as needed.
Please bring water, dress appropriately, and listen to your body. As always, safety comes first. If you’re unsure about running in the heat, there’s absolutely no pressure to attend.
Look out for a further announcement.
