On Sunday 23 March, hundreds of keen runners will take part in the Wymondham Athletic Club (WAC) 20 mile race, with many of them – including me! – using it as part of their Spring marathon training preparations.

There are still places available, so if you fancy a challenge, why not sign up? The WAC marshals along the route will provide lots of friendly encouragement! All details are here.

The race starts at the Market Cross, and then finishes by Lady’s Lane – the perfect opportunity for a sprint finish – if you still have the energy!

For those of you who ARE using it as part of marathon training, I hope your preparations are going ok! I was lucky enough to get a London marathon place in the WAC club ballot and am using it as an opportunity to fundraise for the Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital charity.

And for those of you who aren’t ready for a 20 mile race, but can already run 5k (it doesn’t matter how fast you are!) and would like to meet other runners, then Wymondham Athletic Club would love to hear from you! It’s a friendly mixed ability group, who meet on Monday evenings at Kett’s Park.

Happy running everyone!
