Run with Cardiff AAC
Wednesday 22 June 2011
Cardiff AAC is launching a new running group tomorrow, Thursday 23rd of June.
Organised runs will take place on Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings and runners of all abilities and ages are welcome to join in. Those interested should meet at Cardiff International Sports stadium on Thursday evenings for 6:20pm.
The club has a strong heritage in Road Running & Cross Country as well as Track and Field and club coach Alex Donald and club stalwart Bernie Plain MBE (pictured running for Wales) have initiated this 'Club Run' group which will be based at Cardiff International Sports Stadium.
The launch on the 23rd of June is an open invitation to runners or others who would like to get into running to come and speak to Bernie and Alex; to seek any advice they want on running with the club. The run will be approximately 6 miles long.
Bernie Plain was a well known Cardiff athlete who competed for Great Britain over a 10 year period and still holds the British record for 20 miles on the track. He still runs at the age of 64 and will be joining the group on club runs. Bernie also wishes to re-start the Veterans road running section of our club which was once one of the top clubs in the UK for road running.
Why not give it a try - the more the better.
