The weekend long run is a key workout for anyone training for race distances from the 10K and up. Long runs at a slower pace are good for any runner, and a great chance to get to know your club mates better! See week’s routes here.
RWxGV Sunday Long Runs
The Guelph Victors have been focussed on speed workouts and have not had a regular long run for many years now, so we’ve partnered with The Running Works to organize a weekly long run event, Sundays at 8 am!
We’ve chosen Sunday as the long run day so as not to interfere with the Eramosa River Trail parkrun, which happens every Saturday at 9 am. If you’re used to running long on Saturday, please consider switching your day and running with us! The larger the group, the better!
The RWxGV Sunday Long Run:
- is an organized weekly run, leaving from The Running Works store at 89 Gordon Street, 8 am sharp
- is less formal than a running clinic, with leaders to get things going, share the weekly route, and organize similar-pace groups, although we can’t “supervise” the actual runs
- requires no signup or registration, no fee, and no need to check in advance to see if it’s happening
Distance Options:
- >10K
- 15K–25K+
You’re free to run the distance that suits you (you may have to do some of the run on your own if your turn back earlier than the group)
NOTES:
- The store opens at 11 am on Sundays, so it’s not possible to leave gear or keys there
- Come with everything you need, eg. nutrition and water, clothing
