This week was our 456th week of Monday Night Running. It was also our 299th virtual MNR (VMNR), and next week we'll be celebrating the 300th at our Dash Christmas social.

The week also saw 8 Dashers participate in Parkrun events; Preeti complete the Phoenix River Thames Half Marathon; and those participating in the Rudolf Christmas Carrot Challenge smash the active calories/carrots target for the first 5 days.

This week was our 455th week of Monday Night Running. And it was great to see Paul back at the group run. It was also our 298th virtual MNR (VMNR), so now only 2 weeks away from the 300th and the celebratory Christmas social.

The week also saw 8 Dashers participate in Parkrun events, Claire complete the Hatfield 5, and the start of our latest medal challenge (involving doing sufficient activty to fuel Rudolf for 24 hours on Christmas Eve).

This week was our 454th week of Monday Night Running. It was also our 297th virtual MNR (VMNR), which means we'll be both having our Christmas social and celebrating our 300th VMNR on Monday, December 15th (3 weeks' time).

The week also saw 10 Dashers participate in Parkrun events, with huge congratulations to Beth for achieving a new Parkrun PB - taking a phenomenal c30s off her previous best. She was also 1st in her age group, 4th woman, and 4th overall by Age Grade 🥳🥳

This week was our 453rd week of Monday Night Running, with a number of Dashers braving the cold to run/walk together at Broadwood Avenue.

It was also our 295th virtual MNR (VMNR), which means we'll be celebrating our 300th on December 22nd. And the week also saw 8 Dashers participate in Parkrun events.

Very many congratulations to my client Jane.

In the last year, she has been increasing her fitness, running further, and running faster. In the process she has successfully completed 6 distance and elevation related goals, whilst also drastically improving her 5k time!

If you’d like to work towards achieving your running goal by getting fitter, or running faster and/or further (anything from 5k to a 50k+ Ultra), then please get in touch to book a professional 1-1 training programme with a UK Athletics Running Coach (me)!

This week was our 294th virtual MNR (VMNR), and the 452nd week of MNRs. And it was great to be able to handout Halloween 666 medals to some of the participants.

The week also saw Preeti complete the One by the Canal Half Marathon in a new personal best time🥳, and 10 Dashers participated in Parkrun events.

This week was our 293rd virtual MNR (VMNR), and the 451st week of MNRs. The week also saw 8 Dashers participating in Parkrun events, including Karin who completed her 250th – making it a double celebration as, in the same week, her daughter, and fellow Dasher, Catherine delivered a baby girl 🥳

There was a successful conclusion to the Halloween 666 challenge, with the Dashers taking part pulling out all the stops: exceeding the per person target for the week by an average of c10,000 steps; smashing the overall 6.66 million step target for October; and earning themselves pumpkin medals.

This week was our 292nd virtual MNR (VMNR), and the 450th week of MNRs. The week also saw 8 Dashers participating in Parkrun events, whilst at the Running Tribe event in Chalfont, Jaswinder completed a Marathon/Ultra, and Preeti did a 14k.

We're now in our final week of the Halloween 666 challenge and, scarily, it's touch and go as to whether we will reach the 6.66 million steps required to successfully complete the challenge. As of last Friday, we were 38,000 steps behind schedule but I'm sure the determined Dashers taking part will emerge triumphant🫰

Very many congratulations to my client Jaswinder. She did her first ever Trail Marathon/Ultra on Saturday. Testament to the fitness she has built over a number of years of training together, she was able to successfully complete the c45k distance, and c400m elevation.

This week was our 291st virtual MNR (VMNR), and the 449th week of MNRs since the first in Jan 2017. The week also saw 9 Dashers participating in Parkrun events, whilst Lucy epically completed the Yorkshire Marathon, her first ever (and therefore achieved a PB!). And, at the other end of the spectrum, Shama ended the Great South 10 Mile Run vowing she'd never run another race!

In addition, since my last report: Dawn equally epically completed the Berlin Marathon (again); Beth, Claire, Dawn (again), Lauren, Rob, and Teresa ran the epic Vitality 10k; Claire (again), Jo, Karin, Maria, and Sue N did the elevated Moor Park 10k; Arunima, Iain, Judith, James (in a PB time), Preeti, and Rohit completed the Ealing Half Marathon; Beth (again) and Cliff experienced an enjoyable Cardiff HM, and Suzy T ran the electric Chicago 5k.

As per the last month (with thanks to informal group leader Jane), there will be no formal group MNR for the rest of the year but I will be at Broadwood each week (meeting at the KIngs College cafe car park) at 6.30pm, should anyone want to join an informal MNR and, in the process, complete a VMNR.

Very many congratulations to my client Roshana. Not only did she complete the Richmond Riverside Half Marathon on October 12th, but she did it in a new PB time - taking nearly 20 minutes off her previous best.

Very many congratulations to my client Danny. He completed his first ever marathon in Oslo last week, in an amazing 3:53:51. Danny only started running late last year and, having lost 5 stone, credits running as having changed his life.
