We will start the session with some light stretching exercises to warm us up, and help to prepare us for the run. The pace of the run will be steady, depending on who is running with us on the day. Days when we have a large group we may break into multiple groups, each operating independently at their own pace. Saturdays are good for intermediate runners, and is usually a 10km run, again at a steady pace. If you're looking to get into running, come along on Tuesday or Thursday mornings and I will coach you, at your pace, to get you up to running (jogging) to 5km without stops. The only thing I will ask, if you're a beginner, is that you're able to walk for approx 30 minutes at a relaxed pace. PLEASE NOTE: That, if you RSVP a particular event, then please ensure that you attend, as there may be other members relying on you for company on the run. IMPORTANT NOTE: Any run or activity that you participate in with the group will be at your own risk. Usually we have a post run (after our cool down) coffee in the Dash container at the Hole in the Wall pub.

**📚 Literary Meetup: The Midnight Library by Matt Haig · Come As You Are** We're holding space to explore and discuss Matt Haig's The Midnight Library in a friendly low-key environment, and the whole evening is centred around the book and each other. Discussion flows wherever the group takes it — with every reader given room to share what mattered to them, and even familiar readers find new angles in a good group discussion. Come having read whatever you managed, and bring whatever part of the book you want to talk about, and bring your interpretations — since genuine impressions beat polished opinions every time. This is an open group and new faces are always a good thing — and the group tends to make first-timers feel at ease very quickly, bring your reactions and leave the rest to the discussion, and the discussion gets richer with every new reader who joins. --- **Worth having on hand:** - An open mind and a willingness to debate - A list of moments or lines you want to discuss - A copy of The Midnight Library to reference during discussion **What happens:** 1. Arrive, grab a seat, and introduce yourself if you are new — no icebreakers, just conversation 2. The group digs into the book and the conversation goes wherever it leads 3. The session wraps with a quick note on next month's book 💡 **Helpful hint:** jot down one question you are genuinely curious about, so you have something concrete to anchor your contribution, and the rest of the conversation will take care of itself. --- 🎭 The conversation is always worth the read — join the session and bring your honest take and the conversation is always worth showing up for. See you at the session. 🎭

We'll meet here, get maps, and head out to find a set of controls around the area. At each control, take a photo so we know you made it, then post your best shots to the group afterward. Expect light running, quick thinking, and a fun outdoor challenge. Wear comfortable shoes, bring your phone, and be ready to explore.
