It was a blustery morning 💨 , but the rain 🌧held off, for our Fabulous Friday walkers on their walk around the racecourse.

There was plenty of chatter 🗣 and laughs 🤣 as usual from this friendly bunch.

We stopped off at the pond on the way round so Treena could feed the ducks 🦆. It was here that we met our newest member - Gilbert the Goose 🪿 (Mr Google thinks he is a Greylag goose).

Gilbert was eager to join us for a chat, posed for our usual group photo and then walked with us back to the main path! See you next week Gilbert 😂

Why not join us next Friday, or if you can't make it, we have evening walks on Mondays (6.30pm at Asda in Pontefract) and Tuesdays (6.30pm behind Featherstone Library).

Here’s our back to school photo 🤣

Great running tonight everyone .. sometimes we underestimate the effort and commitment it takes to turn up and run at the end of a long day. Life is busy….. so a big THANKYOU for coming to join us each week 👋🙂

Next week we will be having a change of scenery with the races being on and will meet at Xscape outside spoons @ 6.30pm …. there’s also talk of a quick drink afterwards so keep it free

See you soon 👋

SEPTEMBER !!!! How did that happen ?!! This month we will be making the most of our more scenic routes as the nights start to get darker 🥲

It ended up being a beautiful evening for our Tuesday walk in Featherstone. Jackets soon came off and the dark clouds went away.

Penny the sausage dog 🐾 joined us with grandma Nic and was a star 🌟. She may only have little legs but she managed a 5km walk without a problem 😊

We went over the fields tonight, towards Ackworth Water Tower. We were all so involved in the chat that we ended up going a bit further than usual, but no-one minded 🗣

I’m absolutely delighted to say the rain stayed away for our Friday morning jaunt round Pontefract park today. It was lovely to see the grass coming back to life after the downpours we have had and the ground wasn’t too wet underfoot.

What a great way to start the weekend, enjoying a lovely walk and great conversations with these lovely people.

Hope to see you all again next week, minus the lucky ones that will be enjoying a weekend of glamping 🎪or those celebrating retirement 🎉.

We do like a flatter route every so often and luckily the rain held off ☔️🥳

We all opted for the 5k route tonight all taking it at our own pace. It was nice to see some other running groups along the way too !!

Do you have any races or events planned and need some extra motivation to train?! Our sessions are perfect for adapting to distances and finding new routes or just to have some company as extra motivation 🙌🏻

We are back same time next week, so why not pop along 🙂
