Good morning!
Just in case you missed it, we are rolling into Week 8!! Last week started off with a combo KF/Crags session, sadly without Coach Dan (hopefully he will be feeling better soon!), with a mixture of flat, uphill and downhill reps. Add terrain reps next and we will have the full set!
To celebrate Women and Girls in Sport Week, we organised a girls run around Blackford and the Hermitage, an excellent chance to get out and support one another. And if the run left you feeling peckish, that was sorted by a quick stop at pasta night for some of the 12kg of veggie lasagne on offer.
Before we knew it the weekend rolled around and EUOC ventured south to the land of many lakes, hardy sheep and Mrs Tiggy-Winkle. Navigation skills were tested in some fine Lakeland terrain on the Saturday, before the skills were put to the test at the High Rigg Galoppen on Sunday. Some impressive performances by our members saw Charlie, Frank and Finlay take 1st, 2nd and 4th on Brown, with Emma 3rd Women! Further success was had with Ruari taking the win on the Green course, Joe winning Very Short Green in a very competitive field, and Anthony finishing 2nd on Yellow. Wow, some stellar performances!
That’s all for week 6! If you have any questions, please feel free to pop them in the general chat, or if you are struggling at all, please feel free to reach out to me or our wellbeing officer Wozzle for some advice or just a chat. As per usual, if you also fancy some company for your run, ping a message on the general chat and there will be someone with similar plans.
Until next time,
Izzy
