Monday nights training takes place at Markhams Chase Sports Centre, Markhams Chase, Laindon, Essex. This centre has a well lit car park and excellent changing facilities. The group consists of all standards of runners, we meet at the back of the reception area by the clock (don't be confused by the other groups that meet just inside the doorway) and leave the centre at 7.05pm. This is usually a more relaxed session to recover from races and long runs at the weekend. The run usually ranges from 4½ to 6 miles.
Tuesday is track night at Gloucester Park North, Cranes Farm Road, Basildon. The track is available for members of the public to use on Tuesday evenings. This is a structured session starting at 7pm. Changing and showers are available, there is a small charge, if you have a Bascard there is a reduction.
Friday at Basildon Sports Centre is our main club night. We have an organised run starting at 7.45pm which is for runners of mixed abilities. We usually have two groups and run approx 5 - 6 miles. Shower and changing facilities are available at the centre. This is also a social evening where we meet in the bar for a drink and a chat after the run.
