message from Kris Allen - Sunday Socials 2nd January Hi all Despite my best efforts to ignore it, Manchester Marathon looms close on the horizon 🙈. With this in mind, I’ve planned this weeks social this Sunday as a half marathon. Rather than starting from the club, we will start and finish at the Tees Barrage. Suggest we meet at the Serpentine Car Park (the one before The Talpore car park) at 08:55. Pace will be around 9 to 9 1/2 minute mile pace. As always, all welcome. If you can please comment below if you are coming so as not to leave anyone behind 🙂 See you Sunday!!
