Is anyone still keen to do this on Thursday?


Would Dulwich park be the preferred meeting point or would meeting by Goose Green or Peckham rye be easier?


It would be good to get an idea of what kind of distance people might want to do and I can sketch out a potential route?

This website may be of use to you Mrs G www.mapometer.com you may already know about it though. If the park is closed at that time you can run from the court lane gate down to the village, left into the village, throught the village, left onto the south circular, left onto lordship lane, left back down court lane back to where you started. That route is just over 2 miles and may be a good first session while you all get to know each other's paces etc. As long as you just turn lft no one can get lost. Hope this helps - sorry I can't help interfering!


Have a good run!

I run, and am reluctant to go out alone in the evenings now that it's dark. I'll keep an eye on this thread to see how you do in terms of pace/distance (I can't generally do Tues or Thurs but occasionally have those evenings free). I can comfortably do 4 - 6 miles at 9:30/10 min mile pace.


Alternatively, I sometimes run with my baby in the buggy (meaning boring laps of Dulwich Park!) immediately after school drop off in the mornings. I did 3 laps this morning, so let me know if anyone fancies joining me (my pace is slower with the buggy).

Sounds good to me.


I can do this Thurs and both days next week hopefully.


I've just signed up for a 9 mile run with my colleagues so need to get training!


Could I suggest meeting by Goose Green, maybe outside Jojo Maman Bebe? So that those of us from all corners of ED don't have too far to come from?

Pickle, I fear the dark nights closing in too!


I'm training for a 1/2 M and during the week I do medium speed run (prob about 10 mins mile pace) and/or hill session and/or sprints - let me know if you fancy meeting up one night. I normally run on a Mon (to nursery for pickup) and Wed/Thur nights.

Glad it's just not me Mrs Glennie! Nursery staff are starting to get used to my alarmingly red and sweaty face. My top tip is to leave bottle of water and warm layer in the pram at nursery, so you don't seize and dehydrate too much once you've done pickup.

    • Sorry to be dim. Was that coming from the shop itself, or from customers? I'd have thought the shop would have some sort of large business bin, in which case presumably Tesco will as well? 
    • Please be cautious of a woman walking two Border Collies off-lead on Peckham Rye. When my husband encountered her, the dogs were already a long distance ahead of her, and she shouted to warn him that one of them “didn’t like puppies.” Unfortunately, before he could react, her dog attacked our 6-month-old puppy. As a result, we are now currently up to £1,000 in vet bills; three of his newly grown adult teeth had to be removed so he is missing 3 of his 4 front teeth now, and he has been left with a hole in the bone of his palate which needs to be monitored to see if it will heal.  My kids are devastated and the puppy ( who we have been training really well so isnt badly behaved or agro with dogs ) is very unwell. I really wish that dogs known to be aggressive, or who do not reliably respond to recall, were kept on a lead to prevent incidents like this

    • Can confirm that they are extremely unpleasant, shouted abuse at me as I warned an OAP not to hand over her cash and then targetted me again as I left M&S.
