Pacers Club Run ~ Sunday 18th June 08:00 Start
« on: June 16, 2017, 07:13:39 AM »
***So the plan for Sunday is to start at 08:00***

We'll head out to Talbot Green, Cardiff, Newport, Caldicot and then over the bridge to England.... we'll then head back to Tintern, Trelleck, Usk, Pontypool, Caerphilly and home;

We could plan for a coffee stop in Usk and Caerphilly, we may need to stop to top up with water here and there as it might be a warm one.

If people are up for it we could always cut out the Newbridge bypass and go over the Oakdale climb again  ;D

08:00 will be a little early for me to get there so I will be at Castell Mynach for 08:40;

I enjoyed this route last year(not Oakdale where several of us walked!!) but not sure I am up to it in terms of both pace and distance endurance now.What sort of pace do you expect Jason?

Looking at the weather conditions I think once we amble through Cardiff and pass Rover Way things will get pretty rapid  ;D
