parkrun Edinburgh would like to invite local jogscotland members to help celebrate the first birthday of parkrun Edinburgh on Saturday 16th October 2010. Please join us at Cramond at 09.30 for a timed 5K run along the waterfront on a flat out and back course. You decide your own pace, run, walk or jog, we welcome everyone. Bring along some home baking to share with other runners and walkers afterwards and enjoy the beautiful scenery.

parkrun is absolutely free, simply register online at www.parkrun.com. You will be emailed a barcode which you need to bring with you on the day.

The course is marshalled and marked at each kilometre and Jog Scotty will be making a guest appearance on the day.

We hope to see many joggers at our first birthday celebrations so please bring your friends and families and make this a celebration to remember.

Hi All,
You are cordially invited to the Westwoods running group Christmas meal on Saturday 4th Dec.
In previous years we have thoroughly enjoyed the "Room in...." restaurants in the city and are continuing the theme with "A Room In Leith" this year.
Their excellent xmas menu is a fixed price of £26.95. There are vegetarian options.
Additionally, in previous years many have opted for the Bring Your Own Wine option (£3).
Use this link to have a look at what's on the menu and to find out more about the restaurant.

Firstly though, e mail me to let me now if you can join us on the 4th, and
Vegetarians please also indicate in your RSVP if you're OK with the vegetarian option. If it's not to your liking, let me know as I can arrange something with the chef.
DEPOSIT: £10 per person to Brendan or Fiona in an envelope with your name on it! please. by your last class that falls on or before Saturday 30th October.
The restaurant is at the end of Dock Place - click link to see

Due to space restrictions we can only invite those who are currently signed up for a jog/run class or attend the Saturday morning sessions.
If you have any questions please contact me.
Looking forward to a fine feast in great company.
Hope to hear from you soon..............or see you for a run at WW soon

PS -After I've heard back from those of you who are coming, I'll e mail those runners much nearer the time requesting your menu choices (the resraurant want to know beforehand - for quicker service etc).
