Rundamentalist Round-Up. Formerly known as Diaries of a Rundamentalist.

Run Leaders Helen Pointon and Katrina Nicol took Andy to Congleton to access his knees with Dan.
Thanks for taking care of Andy!

Now Michelle Carter picks her holiday destinations on if there's a decent parkrun nearby 😆 she did a spot of tourism down in Devon.

Rundamentalist Round-Up from last weekend and a bit of a

Bit of parkrun tourism for the Rundamentalists and Michelle's family affair at Marple was a success with her dad and brother.

Gavin may now hold the "furthest from Macc" parkrun title as he was at Putrajaya, Kuala Lumpur, and ending up in the top 10 finishers.

Beki, Karen and Zoë were at the Tatton 10K.
All did extremely well in the heat.
Karen was first in AG and Zoë and Beki clocked up new 10K PRs.

Both are doing the Great North Run next month.
Zoë has been following the Rundamentalist HM online training programme since February. Now, she is reaping the rewards of structured, progressive overload and consistency to her training with another PB.

Since the turn of the year Beki has been recovering from an operation and has only missed 1 or 2 run club sessions this year. Beki's goal was to be around 60 mins. But she went beyond that with a sub 58!

Top work ladies well done!

Rundamentalist Round-Up from the weekend.

The crew were on fine form, putting in top efforts.

Friday night we had 3 teams at the Running Bear Rave and Relay.

Saturday, Run Leaders Kat and Helen went to support Eileen who was the 34 minute pacer for Macclesfield parkrun and got it bang on!

Amy, even did a spot of parkrun tourism whilst on holiday in Canada!

Michelle and Victoria were back at Macc Track for Deadly Dozen solo effort. Michelle then teamed up with Karen, Martyn and Richard and came 3rd in the mixed relay! Ooossshh.

Sunday, whilst I was assisting at the Deadly Gross, these guys went up Teggs Snout for a social saunta.

At the Rundamentalist Run Club we have developed a real sense of community and friendship. We train and race together.
We support, motivate and encourage each other to be that 1% better.

and Rundamentalist Round-Up

Even on holiday our resident race addict Gavin Trevena was at it again, for the Johor Night Half-Marathon in Malaysia. Where he finished sub 1hr 45 and 8th in Age Cat. Outstanding work pal.

Closer to home, last night Run Leader Helen Pointon and went to Alderley Edge for the Run North West Wizard 5.

Dunc bagged sub 39 and came 8th in Age Cat.

Helen set a course PR with a time of 45:08 and came 7th in Age Cat

They were both hardcore in their celebrations and got an ice-pop, no Medal Monday for these guys 😬

Sterling work again from the Rundamentalist Crew.

Well done and many congrats!

Round-up

Another busy weekend for the Rundamentalist members

Yesterday some of the crew did the Run North West Wilmslow Summer 10K. This was the first race of the run clubs in-house 10K Race Series. The Wilmslow Summer 10K always seems to be scorchio, yesterday was no exception and they did exceptionally well in the heat.

On Saturday Helen went upto Ambleside as a part of the Lakeland Trails Series. She ran the 23km course in just under 4 hours.

Well done peeps, many congrats and fantastic work.

Rundamentalists rule, fact!
