We meet at the York RI RUFC near West Bank Park around 6:50 for a briefing and then head out to run at 7pm. You can leave your coats/bags safely at York RI and pick them up after the run, then after the run we stop for a chat and a drink.
We welcome new runners to our Thursday night social runs. Come along and try us out for 2 or 3 weeks to decide if you would like to join us a member. To find out what routes we’re running each week take a look at our Facebook page .
We usually have 3 groups running with a run leader and a back marker so that no one is left behind. Our groups are typically
- 5.5k Group – Pace: 6.30 – 7.30 per km or 10:30 – 12:00 minute miles
- 7.5k Group – Pace: 5.45 – 6:15 per km or 9:15 – 10:00 minute miles
- 10k Group – Pace: 5.00 – 5.30 per km or 8:00 – 8:50 minute miles
We run different routes every week, here’s some examples of what we’ve done recently:
