Are all SOCIAL RUNNING CLUBS created equal?! Unfortunately not! The LULULEMON 5K! - Al Pepper Runs
So... this one wasn't quite as expected.
I pride myself on being positive, seeing the good wherever I can and generally, loving every footstep but... in a first for this channel... I've got to say that Sunday's Lululemon Social 5k was a bit of a flop in every regard.
Incorrect advertising, confusion before we'd even begun, a poorly (non-existent) marked route and a distinct lack of anything social, community or well-being focussed left me wondering what this event was actually all about?!
Although... I wasn't feeling 100% so maybe I'm being unduly critical here. Watch the video and let me know what you think!
Oh and my goodness is the Town Moor boring! Apologies, it really doesn't make for mu...

Is this the BEST BEACH IN BRITAIN? The Wild Deer Drudge Bay 10K! - Al Pepper Runs
Просмотров 1,9 тыс.День назад
Okay... so I admit that the best of anything is quite subjective but my goodness is the Northumberland coast beautiful! Stunning scenery, the majesty of the great North Sea and... nowhere near as many tourists as more well-visited areas! All this made for a wonderful backdrop to last weekend's Wild Deer Events Druridge Bay 10k (half marathon and canicross events also available!) Join me as I jo...
Half you heard of this CULT CLASSIC half marathon?! The BRASS MONKEY! - Al Pepper Runs
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.14 дней назад
Last weekend's double feature concluded with the York Knavesmire Harriers Brass Monkey Half Marathon on Sunday! Now the Brass Monkey is somewhat of a nemesis of mine. It's a fast and flat course which offers massive PB potential but for me, I find the relatively straight out and back route to be tough psychologically. Historically, I've struggled - usually from the half way point - but was this...
Racing ELITE ATHLETES along the Newcastle Quayside! - Al Pepper Runs

January is a surprisingly stacked month when it comes to running events and last weekend offered double the fun with the @RunThroughTV Newcastle 10k on Saturday followed by the York Knavesmire Harriers Brass Monkey Half Marathon on Sunday! The weather may have been cold but the atmosphere was toasty warm on the quayside on Saturday morning and whilst the course was a simple enough two-lap out a...
We found the ONLY parkrun left in Greater Manchester... HEATON PARKRUN! - Al Pepper Runs
Просмотров 2,1 тыс.21 день назад
Last weekend, Lorna and I headed over to Manchester to watch Peter Kay at the AO Arena! We were kindly hosted by Jamesy Squidge and took the opportunity to do a bit of Parkrun tourism whilst we were there... The only problem was a week of constant snow and sub-zero temperatures meant that, as with the rest of the UK, nearly all parkruns were cancelled! After a lot of research and crossed finger...
Braving a SNOW STORM... just to reach the North Tyneside Trail 12k! - Al Pepper Runs
Просмотров 2,3 тыс.Месяц назад
Happy New Year my little peppers! My first race of 2025 was the brilliant North Shields Poly - North Tyneside Trail 10K! A wonderfully mixed terrain trail run taking in the beach, cliff tops, coastal towns, verdant denes and wagon ways! Sounds lovely right? Well yes... apart from having to brave a snowstorm to get to the coast and then wind and rain during the race itself! It wouldn't be trail ...

How do you finish your racing calendar for 2024?! With a double header of course! After a Saturday with Saltwell Harriers, Sunday saw me visit the wonderful Chopwell Woods for the Wild Deer Events Festive Run! I know the area relatively well so I was confident the route would be challenging and a lot of fun. I also had high hopes that the atmosphere would be as brilliant and my goodness did it ...

How do you finish your racing calendar for 2024?! With a double header of course! Things kicked off on Saturday with the UK's oldest road race - the Ronnie Walker Saltwell 10K - before I headed over to the Wild Deer Events Festive Runs at Chopwell Woods (next week's video) on Sunday! This was surprisingly tough, a 3.5 lapped race around Saltwell Park with a lot of elevation to conquer. The bril...

What's better than a lovely 10K around Derwenthaugh Park? A 10K amongst brilliant company! And what's even better than that? One with a complimentary mug of hot choc at the finish! Join Wayne, Phil and I take on the Run Nation Swalwell 10K, a wonderful 2-lap course around the always enjoyable Derwenthaugh Park and Derwent Walk. For a relatively straight forward, no frills event, I really enjoye...

What was meant to be the No Club Running Club 'takeover' of Newcastle Town Moor parkrun was slightly hampered by the fact that.... the parkrun was cancelled! Unfortunately, the threat of Storm Darragh meant that parkruns up and down the country were cancelled however NCRC decided to meet up regardless and I'm rather pleased we did! The rain and wind couldn't dampen our spirits as we jogged roun...
