Pasta Party!

RRR London Marathon Runners 2014
RRR London Marathon Runners 2014

Romsey Road Runners gathered en masse to eat pasta and to wish this years participants in the London Marathon the very best of luck.

Over 50 club members gathered at the Sun Inn for copious amounts of pasta on Tuesday evening to assist fellow runners in  ‘carb’ loading in preparation for Sundays London Marathon.

Six RRR will be taking part; some seasoned vets, others for the first time; all looked in great shape and were well prepared. We wish them well and hope they have a good run on the day.

David Nixon once again provided the cleverly thought out questions to the Pasta Party Quiz which was won by the (brilliant) Fuzzy Duck team.

About Romsey Road Runners

Who are we?  Romsey Road Runners is an amateur running club, open to all runners who are aged 15 years and over. We offer a programme of training, racing and social events, and there is no pressure to do any more than you feel capable of doing. There is, however, lots of encouragement from like-minded people who understand the joys and pains of running.

What do we do?  Training nights are on a Monday and Thursday, involving a mixture of sessions including intervals, hill efforts and tempo runs, totalling approximately 6 miles.  On training nights the club is split into 4 different groups based on running pace, so you will never be asked to run too far above or below you own ability. Our team of session leaders provide a structured training schedule to improve your speed, stamina and strength, and are on hand on club nights to help out those new to running or those looking for some advice & guidance.

Want to find out more?  We welcome new members to join us for a few evenings to see if the club is right for you. Take a look at our membership information and find out about more about the races we get involved with and our social events.
