Route Bank

Training Runs

The training runs all start from Broomfield leisure center and take in the environ of Stockton Heath, Grappenall, Thelwell, Appleton, Warrington center, as far west as Runcorn. The summer routes try and use as many off-road paths as possible like the Trans-Pennine Trail and the Bridgewater Canal. The winter routes stick to the road because of safety concerns about running in the dark.
