Monday
On Monday nights we meet at the Embankment pub at 6:30pm. During the summer months, once the clocks have gone forward, we have three routes which all involve running along the river or the canal. During the darker months we run the streets of West Bridgford, again offering three different routes. As we are currently running the winter routes, those are the only ones shown here for now.
Parking
If you are running with us then you are welcome to use the car park at the Embankment pub, provided that you register your car using the touch screen device in the pub.

Take the next right turn on to Melton Road. Follow Melton Road all the way to the big junction at The Point office building. Continue on to Loughborough Road and go back over Trent Bridge and return to the Embankment Pub.
