Points to remember for club runs;
• The full run briefing is here – please familiarise yourself with this before the sessions. The briefing will not be repeated in full at the start of each run, so it is your responsibility to review this when you sign-up. Matters arising and new hazards will be briefed on the night.
• Look out for each other, and especially avoid runners becoming isolated (including the back marker).
• Risk assessments for each route can be found here
• Dress for the conditions (e.g. high visibility clothing on a night run).
• Have fun, and be safe!
SAVE THE DATE
Please save this date in your diary as it's the day of ERC's Run the River 10k!!!! It's a really important event for our club.
As many of you know our ERC volunteers make Run the River an absolutely fantastic community event. Every year we get brilliant feedback from participants about the encouraging supporters along the route and the friendly atmosphere on the day.
To make the magic happen we need at least 70 volunteers so please do save the date. More details on how you can help will be sent out in the summer.

Route Map
Points to remember for club runs;
Essex Road Train Station to Greenwich 10.8 Miles/ 17.3km
We will catch the train to Essex Road, so please meet at your relevent station a few minutes before the train departs. I will be joining at Enfield Chase.
Please join one of the following trains for the journey to Essex Road on Sunday 25th of October.
0931 Gordon Hill, 0933 Enfield Chase, 0935 Grange Park, 0938 Winchmore Hill or 0941 Palmers Green
We will then run as a group from Essex Road to Greenwich via Victoria park, The River Lea and Thames Footpath , before heading under the River Thames via the Greenwich foot tunnel at Island Gardens.
Please wear a club top, either a RTR flouresant or standard club top. If the weather forecast is bad then please bring appropriate clothing to run in.
The paths are quite narrow in places and some very low bridges, especially along the Regents Canal so we will have to be very careful. Also the route is very busy with other users so we will have to take care, look out for everyone and give way to pedestrians.
We will run as a group, with regular stops to regroup so all ERC runners are welcome.
We will have a drink in Greenwich from one of the many pubs in the town centre, then walk to Greenwich station for the journey home. The station is about 10 minutes walk from the Town Centre.
**Please note there is a special Sunday social run also planned for 25th October** This is a WW option for those who can't make the special run.
This is an out and back route, so turn when you want to turn (before the big hill?), or add a loop of Trent Park for additional distance. As such this route is for the SHORTER AND LONGER GROUPS.
London Loop to Trent Park Obelisk Out & Back - 12.55km / 7.80ml run
Car Park, Hilly Fields Trail, Rectory Farm, New London Loop Trail, Turn at Ferny Hill (Obelisk), New London Loop Trail, Rectory Farm, Clay Hill, Cafe
