Fuh-Fuh-Fuh, Fuh-Fuh-Friday!!!! 📣📢🏃🎽👟🥇🌞

Edited to add misswobble

Oh yes, it's Friday again and that can mean just one thing - it's time to check the rosters, grab your pompoms, warm up your vocal chords and head to the start line!

We have some some awesome runners to support this Sunday, so let's give our very best shakes and cheers for:

✨ Folkylass who is running the Run Hereford 2024 5K. Widely regarded as Hereford's most popular running event, promising beautiful countryside and undulating nature, this sounds like a great race. Another warm one Folkylass, you made a good choice!

st-michaels-hospice.org.uk/...

✨ Shake-and-run and TailChaser whose latest target is the Blood Cancer UK Bromsgrove Fun Run 10K. Apart from the fundraising information for this important charity, the website is surprisingly light on details so we definitely need race reports for this one!

✨Last but definitely not least, David_G will be running the Bognor Prom 10k. Billed as 'fast, flat and friendly' and presumably run beside the sea, what's not to like? Sounds like my kind of run, especially on a sunny Sunday morning!

✨Plus, a last minute addition - misswobble will be running her local 10k; we all hope the achilles behaves miss w and that mr wobble has the best cake waiting at the finish line for you.

And finally, let's send some feel better wishes to Sandraj39 who has had to pull out of the Gatwick 10k having been unwell. We hope you have a lovely gentle, no pressure run this weekend to make up for it.

It looks like the weather isn't due to break until Sunday afternoon so hopefully you'll all be dry, if possibly a tad warm! Good luck and have the best fun out there. We look forward to reading all about it in your race reports 🌞

Have we missed anyone? Do let us know in the comments below if you too are racing this weekend, or in our May events post if you are racing later this month.

Have a great weekend everyone

From your team Irishprincess Beachcomber66 and me!

Have great runs everyone. Good choice for a warm weekend  Folkylass .  TailChaser and Shake-and-run the big news would be if TailChaser wasn’t racing 😉 !  David_G , great to see you out there racing again; you are managing your recovery brilliantly.

Thanks Beachcomber66 👍 Good luck to everyone who’s getting out there this weekend. I think it’s going to be a warm one 🥵 so stay hydrated! 💦

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon in reply to David_G]

🙂 good advice David. Just a warm 18/19 here oop north, but so much better than 10 days ago.

[TailChaser Marathon in reply to Beachcomber66]

Not Katnap this time BC, he’s staying at home to look after the cat! I’m running with Shake-and-run before she abandons me for France!

[Beachcomber66 Administrator Half Marathon in reply to TailChaser]

Katnap ? Who mentioned Katnap?? 😉

Hope he and the cat have a great day too.

Thanks linda9389 👍 I’m just hoping to get round if I’m honest. It’s going to be warm 🥵 but I’m hoping the gentle sea breeze will help!

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to David_G]

Perfect 😊

[Irishprincess Administrator Half Marathon]

Shorts and sunglasses at the ready 😎 Enjoy yourselves and good luck everyone 🍀

Feel better soon Sandraj39 💐

[Sandraj39 Half Marathon]

Thanks Linda - shame about the Gatwick 10 but I know it was the right decision and there will be plenty more races ahead! 🤞

I also had a gym induction this morning (which I didn’t want to miss) and surprised myself by how much I enjoyed it! 🏋️‍♀️🤣 I am planning to go every Friday for a while to see if this helps my running.🙂

Good luck to everyone running this weekend - I hope you all have fab races!🙂🏃🏽🏃‍♀️🏃🏽

[Sandie1961 Half Marathon]

Good luck everyone. Pom-poms will be shaking from our Motorhome in Shropshire this weekend! Going to be a warm one, don’t forget your water bottles.

Speedy recovery Sandraj39

commiserations to Sandraj39 - get well soon.

[AlMorr Half Marathon]

Pom poms to you all, take plenty of liquid with you as the temperature, especially on Sunday could be around 80F/27C in parts of Southern England.

[TailChaser Marathon]

Thanks Linda, and good luck to my compatriot in trainers Shake-and-run , Folkylass and David_G . Sandraj39 is much more sensible than me, look after yourself Sandra. I’ve got the end of a cold that’s turned into a tummy bug, so I probably shouldn’t run on Sunday but… well, we’ll see how I am on Sunday 🤞🤞 Have fun everyone!! 🥳🥳🥳

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to TailChaser]

Fingers crossed you feel much better by Sunday TC 🤞

[Cowladyrunning Marathon in reply to TailChaser]

Oh no hope you feel better.

[TailChaser Marathon in reply to Cowladyrunning]

Thanks both, I hope so too. Judging by today’s parkrun though I’m not sure at all 😢

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to TailChaser]

I thought your parkrun looked pretty speedy ...

[TailChaser Marathon in reply to linda9389]

You didn’t see me at the end of it 😬

[Comfortnotspeed Marathon]

Good luck everyone xx

[Lavender1962 Half Marathon]

Good luck everyone! My pompoms will be waving. Happy running. 🏃🏻‍♀️🏃😀

[Cowladyrunning Marathon]

[Folkylass]

Thanks Linda and good luck to Shake-and-run , TailChaser and David _G have a super day. Sending Sandraj39 best wishes too and get well soon😂😂🥰👍👍

[Shake-and-run Half Marathon]

Not sure how i came to be entered for this 10k. But it is nice and local and there is bling! Just seen a profile of the course (from a few years back so it may not be relevant) and there appears to be a big lump in the middle! Oh what fun!!! Good luck to other runners out there this weekend, and see you on the otherside!!!

[Run46 Half Marathon]

I'm with you, the Bognor Prom 10k sounds like a perfect run, hopefully a nice breeze off the sea too.

Good luck everyone and enjoy every minute 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🎉

[aliboo70 Half Marathon]

Good luck everyone tomorrow with your runs! Get well soon Sandraj39 .... 😘xxx

[misswobble Marathon]

Have a fab time out there everyone. Good luck!

I’ll be joining in the fun at my local 10k. Hoping for lemon drizzle😋 🙏😀🏅

[linda9389 Administrator Marathon in reply to misswobble]

Good luck Miss W - hope the achilles behaves 🙏 Extra pom poms being drafted in now !!!

[Time_Lord Half Marathon]
