Our Towpath Series

We organise the fantastic GWR Towpath Series which consists of three 10K races and a final 5K held between May and August.

We would love to be able to organise a race in August but we are waiting on permits from Bristol City Council.

So how have you been keeping active over the lockd

So how have you been keeping active over the lockdown period?

Well here at GWR towers we've been playing a game of alphabet selfies.
The game works for 26 days and day 1 you find something beginning with A and take a selfie, day 2 something beginning with b and so on. It turned into boys v girls to see who could get the most.
Yesterday we finished round 1 of the challenge with the boys edging an 13-11 daily win. 438-432 selfies which means our Facebook page has been a hive of activity and poor Lee and Gaynor have had quite the task of counting the scores each day!

Well round 2 starts tomorrow so hopefully we'll see some even more creative offerings second time around!

Introducing a new running podcast!🏃‍♂️🎧
.
In more normal times, I’d run with these guys pretty regularly - but under lockdown we obviously can’t. So instead, we’ve been doing the same workout once a week, but separately and debriefing it over a few beverages after. As a bit of fun, we’ve started up a new podcast, @singlemaltmarathoners - go check it out if you are interested (link in bio)!
.
We’re all sub-3 marathoners who run for @greatwesternrunners with PBs of 2:36, 2:53 and 2:57. We’ll be doing weekly recaps of our training, debriefing our workout and plenty of other running content!

It is with great sadness that we have to cancel this year's Towpath Series.

Unfortunately, in light of the current national pandemic and in dealing with Covid-19, the Bristol City Council have, rightly, decided to cancel all public event permits. This means we have no choice but to cancel the race series this year.

The Towpath Series has been going for 20+ years so we are very sad to have to cancel. All being well, we will endeavor to return better than ever in 2021! Hopefully see you there!

There will be further correspondence to those who had already entered this year's series in regards to a refund.

Please take care in everything you are doing and stay safe.
