Lickey End Rain Dodgers.!
Torrential, soaks deep and covers you all over... that's the love for running at Lickey End Striders as we braved the elements and took to the paths. The session was a 20 minute out and then back with the idea being to keep moving rather than get too cold. Oh, and there was the biggest hill to climb in the local area..!! Someone asked if I was concerened about pooling water on the footpaths and when I explained that there is no water where we are going as it runs down they quickly realised what was in store. We did this session a few weeks ago and lots of the group managed to push beyond where they had got to previously, they took to it like ducks to water. The bonus of this session is that once the whistles go to indicate the 20 minute turn around you get to fly all the way back home.... unless you have somehow got to the top of the Lickeys and dropped down the other side. Doh.!!
Well done all and that session is as good for your mental fortitude as your leg strength.
Have a great week and see you soon.
