Keri Oct 2018 11:46am, 21 Oct 2018 First-time poster!!	0 Keri Looking for training buddies for long runs or week-night group runs - I'm not fast, I'm stubborn.. (this year is race to complete - but I need to start adding some faster stuff - hence the change of focus and this post) Weekdays - I commute by bike/run - so something around Weybridge/Woking in the post-commute period say 18:00-20:00 Weekends - South Downs or North Downs - Preferably Sundays Typical offroad slogger.. but try to keep the topics light! My local club is too far from the office to attend any more.. and I am slowly going stir-crazy! Suggestions?

StuH Oct 2018 8:34pm, 21 Oct 2018 2,640 posts	0 StuH Hiya Keri, Welcome to Fetch! Weekdays - Woking Sweatshop do runs Monday and Thursdays, 18:30 from the shop, variety of paces. Horsell Runners do regular runs from Horsell not sure when, think they have a FB page. Woking cruisers are club based out of David Lloyd in Woking, they run Wednesdays I think. Weekends - Of course there is parkrun, but for longer and off road in the North Downs Trekking & Outdoors do fortnightly Sunday runs.
Keri Nov 2018 8:20am, 3 Nov 2018 2 posts	0 Keri Thanks everyone for the responses! Especially Stu for the suggestions of running groups. I think most of my log runs will be weekends and South Downs next year (closer to home). But the week days will be great. Looking at a HM-style training program for weekdays.. do my speedwork that way! Time to get organised after the next Yorkshire trip..
