The Blandford Run takes place on Sunday 2nd April and will commence from the Corn Exchange in the Market Place at Blandford Forum.
The run starts at 11am and free tea or coffee and biscuits will be available for club members from approximately 10am within the shambles area of the Corn Exchange. Dorset Council has introduced charges on Sundays for all car parks under their management, including the Blandford Market Place. Please park within the area defined by the bollards immediately in front of the Corn Exchange.
The outward route covers 44.9 miles to a lunch stop at the Witchampton and Critchel Club, where a roast dinner will be available for £11.95; a room behind the bar has been allocated for our use. Please tell the run organiser at the start of the run if you would like lunch so that the Club can be informed of likely numbers. We hope that snack meals will also be available. The afternoon run, of 12 miles, takes us back to Blandford via an ice cream parlour for those wishing to purchase an ice cream or enjoy a walk along the river.
The Section is asking for a contribution of £3 towards run expenses.
