    After reading that post tonight about turning 30 it was interesting to see a few had mentioned about fitness and health……..I do the occasional bit of jogging, I’m no Mo Farah btw, but if anyone is up for a light jog, a jog and a chat, a way to get there arses off the sofa, a starting point or to get some feel factor then maybe a once a week jog would be a good idea.

    Im just outside the town centre so can meet locally or drive if suits.

    Anyhow…….if it floats any boats stick it on here and we’ll do something

    First one tonight……..dragged my pal off the sofa and we did 4 mile, met at poggy and went on Broadway and into town, had a chinwag and put world to rights.

    We’ll be doing another one next week.

    Don’t be shy
