Mid week morning park runs anyone?


Recommended Posts

I've been running with a group of pals now for over 5 years but now almost all have left the area. We are slow, often injured and in our 40s and fifties, but like to chat and run then go for coffee. Flexible start time but used to meet up about 930 am. Mondays wednesdays or fridays any day that you can make it I can set up a text group for anyone who might like to join. Let me know if anyone is interested by pm please. Max run 5K often 3 or 4 due to various injuries but hey it gets you out into the parks for some fresh air. Personally I find it hard to run on my own. Can go to Dulwich, Peckham, Brockwell or Crystal palace .

Look forward to hearing from you. Totally informal and obviously free.

Hi siousxiesue - there are now 3 of us, 4 if you would like to join. I'm open to some resistance training, but as I do this Tuesdays and Thursdays anyway kinda more interested in getting my running back into shape. But open minded. Why don't you let me have your mobile number by PM if you like and I will add you to the shout - looking like we will be starting mid September as I am away in Scotland and in France before then.

    • Someone leaked the report to an "activist" journalist knowing full well they they would "selectively pluck" items to fit their agenda.....and remember large parts of the report were based on data from "activist researcher" Dr Aldred...   https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/mar/08/low-traffic-neighbourhoods-generally-popular-report-ordered-by-sunak-finds   Very much a case of when the headline:   Rishi Sunak’s report finds low-traffic neighbourhoods work and are popular   ....doesn't get supported by your article:   A copy of the report seen by the Guardian said that polling carried out inside four sample LTNs for the DfT found that overall, twice as many local people supported them as opposed them.   A review of evidence of their effectiveness said that although formal studies were limited, they did not support the contention of opponents that LTNs simply displaced traffic to other streets rather than easing overall congestion. “The available evidence from the UK indicates that LTNs are effective in achieving outcomes of reducing traffic volumes within their zones while adverse impacts on boundary roads appear to be limited,” it read.   The problem is these articles then get reposted by "activist lobby groups" like of Clean Air Dulwich as "proof".....
    • Wood pigeons strut about in my garden as if they own the place.   It's amusing watching them try to work out how to access the bird feeder ports. They usually end up walking about underneath the feeders  hoping for bits to drop down 😂 This has  however wrecked the bed which my bird feeder pole is in, which now has virtually no plants in it, including some which I had had for decades 😭
    • I've not heard of many moving to SE23 from SE22 or choosing SE23 over SE22 in the first place.  Certainly Clapham and other expensive places to the west.  It may be that this is my demographic but there was always a feeling that Forest Hill was rougher, off the beaten track, until the arrival of the Overground changed everything.  But there again the gentrification of Penge is astonishing That was drafted a few days ago.  But I seriously have to disagree with Cycle Monkey.  The eastern edges of SE23 are extremely convenient for St Dunstan's, and on the lower parts of SE23 a doable ride to Sydenham High.  Not that either was a factor for us.
    • We are just having a little fun with the OP.  I am sure someone who is planning to send their children to the Dulwich private schools need not consider the horror of "downgrading" to Forest Hill and our dreadful child exhausting geography.
