A crisp run last night with 6 of us out. All of the snow had gone away and just the cold wind to contend with as we set off just after 7pm.
Adam and I led off around the first section, up into Belvoir and down the first trail, around the river and up toward the estate climbs. Here Robbie and Ronnie jumped onto the front and hauled us up to the football pitch where we re-grouped and then nailed it down the two trails and upward to big Belvoir. Coming out of Lagan Meadows we passed a few walkers and then people started shouting in a panic - I thought someone had clipped them but it turned out Marty had a puncture, ffs! Stuart Marty didn't have any spares so Graham chucked him a tube and some levers and once fixed Robbie took us on a detour through the side fields heading back to Minnowburn.
As it was getting late, we exited Giants Ring and then headed for the Mary Peter's track and did a few loops. Ronnie's light died on the first, Marty bailed at the end and then on the start of the second I got a puncture too and just walked it back to the Car Park to finish- first puncture in a long time!
Mary P's is looking great - wonder why no one talks about it on Facebook etc?
That was our last Wednesday Night run for the winter and the Club League starts next week. It has been great to keep the legs going over the winter and away from that pesky Turbo Trainer!

That's a really nice website!
You think they would take longer than two hours? Sure we cover most of them on a Wed Night and do two loops - and our total run is around 2 hours...
