South Cambridge Striders – Tuesday Night Run 💙🩵🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

A little rain never stopped us… although it did mean numbers were slightly lower than usual! Still, brilliant energy out there on Tuesday.

💙 Our Couch to 5K crew continue to go from strength to strength – confidence growing every single week and it’s fantastic to see those steady progressions paying off 👏

🩵 The 4-mile group headed out for a loop around St Edith’s and Addenbrooke’s, keeping a strong, social pace and ticking off the miles with plenty of chat along the way.

💙 Meanwhile, the 6-mile group pushed up towards the station before looping back down through Trumpington.

Rainy miles are still miles in the bank. Same time next week – who’s in? 💪

💙🩵 Wet miles, strong runs 💪🌧️

Rain didn’t stop us this morning! One group tackled 9 miles, heading up along the Backs and looping back through Grantchester, while the 12-mile crew pushed up to the river in town before heading back to Trumpington.

Puddles, soggy shoes, and great company all round - well done all 👟👏

Tuesday miles in the bag 💙🩵

Another great Tuesday for our Striders, with two solid runs to kick the week off:

🩵 4-mile loop taking in Long Road ➝ Trumpington Road ➝ past Addenbrooke’s ➝ and back along Long Road to Trumpington Community College.

💙 6 miles up the guided Busway to the station, then back down Hills Road to TCC — a strong effort all the way home.

🩵 11-mile marathon group tackled the Gogs and Wandlebury, enjoying the hills and the views

Lovely conditions, great company, and plenty of miles banked. Well done everyone! 👏

Good turnout for Tuesday evening’s run. 👟💙🩵

We split into two groups and covered some great routes:

🩵 4-mile group took in a scenic loop along Long Road → Trumpington Street → Brooklands Avenue, then back up Long Road to finish in Trumpington.
💙 6-mile group headed out along the Guided Busway, before looping back via Shelford and Trumpington for some quality midweek miles.
