Lakeside Lincoln Running Club

Too busy chatting on our Wednesday run this week, so had to make do with a post-run photo opportunity in the pub! Getting dark by the end of the run, time to recharge the torches...

Our first posted run for a couple of years, although we have been running all this time! Nice relaxed run to Nettleham, taking in some quiet rural paths.

On the edge of -1 degrees ❄️when we set off tonight, but we managed to have an enjoyable run at a nice steady pace, and returned back feeling much warmer 🙂

Thanks to Allan for leading an extra Sunday morning outing from Doddington; a chilly start but the sun did come out for us for a while. We were careful to observe the speed limit through the villages😀

For a change, some pics from the somewhat more challenging Thursday run last night, 8 hills to climb and looking at the route maybe could be known as the Scorpion run 😀

Great to see some Lakeside representation at Yarborough park run on this slightly damp but not too cold morning; Will, Alastair and Richard with honorary member John 🙂

We took a route through town tonight to get a sneak preview of Lincoln's Christmas lights, they kindly switched on the reindeer for us 🙂

Tonight was Holly's much anticipated Swan Run 🦢, hence the tutus - unfortunately we didn't have quite enough of them to go round though 😀

It wasn't pre-planned but as this is the week of the Lincoln Monster Invasion, tonight's run turned into the Monster Run 👹💀🎃
As you can see, a lot of creative effort went into those photos,
but we did manage to find time for some running too 😁

The Lakeside run of luck continues with the weather, we got round tonight just before the wind and rain of Storm Babet got properly going 🌪🌧 New runners always welcome, if you're thinking of training for a 10k next year then now is the time to get started, with a choice of running on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays with Lakeside!

In front of the Lincolnshire Poacher, just to prove one or two of us did manage to get out for a run on this less than ideal evening 🌧 - moving swiftly on when Holly started eyeing the slide in the children's play area longingly 🙂
