It's 3/4 of the way through January and some of you dead beets have been noticeably absent from the Saturday morning trail runs.
Most of the excuses have been "it's to cold out to run".
Why last Saturday I heard an excuse that has to go in the record book of 101 excuses to miss trail runs.
She said she had to miss trails because her husband had been hit in the leg with an axe.
At first I thought her absence was because the police had her in jail for wielding the axe.
(for poor aim?)
But no, it turned out it was a self inflicted log splitting accident.
Lot's of newbies out to join the Soiled Sport group trail runs, so we should point out our trail motto:
- No Cost
- No Support
- No Sympathy
Where: Medway Trail (Google Map link directions listed in the right hand side bar)
When: Every Saturday until March, then we start doing our trail series rotation till November.
Distance: 8km it's an out and back course so you can do shorter distance if you need to
Time:8:01 AM
Afterwards a number of runners head over to Farm Boy for coffee and tell tall tales and bad jokes.
