Royton Road Runners

During what we hope will be a glorious summer, there are certain nights when club runs move away from Royton Cricket Club - either because of a clash with junior cricket fixtures or just because it's good to explore some different running routes in the area. We've identified some dates below for 2019 - if you would like to propose a venue or lead a run on any of these dates, please get in touch. 

The away night at Diggle on Bank Holiday Monday (27th May) has been postponed until later in the summer. Due to a lack of leaders and runners, and leaders who were available not being familiar with routes, the committee felt it would be better to do this away night at a later date. 

Due to recent attendance at away nights, we have decided not to have as many when the cricket club is unavailable. The committee appreciate that travelling further afield is very difficult for members who are trying to juggle families and work commitments etc.

Therefore, we are going to cancel the planned away night at Dovestones on 3rd June. This doesn't mean we wont have any away nights in future, but we will probably look at Thursdays when there is more chance of pubs being available/open. The Royton Trail recce will still take place later in June.The future approach for away nights will probably be to look at venues nearer to Royton on most occasions.
