An informal training group meets every Tuesday in the Church Stretton co-op car park at 7pm for a social run in the local hills. All welcome. Runs typically last an hour to an hour and a half, then we retire for some serious carbo loading in Housemans round the corner or in The Ragleth Inn, Little Stretton.
Please note the training runs are not exclusive for Mercia Members. No previous fell running experence is required but you will need running shoes with decent grips (ideally trail or fell shoes) and to carry or wear kit suitable for the conditions. We have a small number of club headtorches available if you don't have your own initially. You don't have to be super fit - we run five to eight miles with several stops to regroup, and we will do our best to ensure no-one is left out on the hills!
Other runs can be arranged at weekends on the Mynd or wider afield, please feel free to put a comment below (ID and password maybe required, these can be obtained from the webmaster if you do not already have one) stating when and where you are going, and see if anyone else is interested in joining in.
