    WINTER SCHEDULE (September - April)

    Thursday evenings .. we meet at The Spectrum in Guildford in the car park overlooking the running track. We try to leave at 19:30 and generally run for about 60-70 minutes on the roads. The route is varied with a good mix of hills ... up and down, and some excellent views if you notice them. A well established circuit now with many cut offs if the route is too long for you.

    Tuesday evenings .. we meet at the car park at The Herons in Haslemere, and leave at 19:00. The runs vary from about 50-70 minutes as we discover new sections to extend the route! As with Guildford, no shortage of hills in Haslemere.

    If in doubt get in touch (contact Webmaster from the GO home page "Email us ..." link)

    The summer schedule is more varied and interesting with most runs on the country in the Guildford and Haslemere areas.

    Thursday evening .. we take it in turns to plan a run, but about once a month we run the traditional "Shere Loop" from the Golf Club at Merrow ... a splendid 80 minute route that is a must for the discerning runner! Most other runs are about 70 minutes with shorter options if you can't manage that long.

    Tuesday evenings .. we meet at the car park at The Herons in Haslemere, and leave at 19:00. Runs are mostly off road, with some superb routes over Blackdown, Gibbet Hill, the Devil's Punch Bowl just for starters. Some fantastic carpets of Bluebells can be seen in late Spring, particularly around Blackdown, so make a note in your diary now.
