🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️ EVER DECREASING CIRCLES 
🏃🏼🏃🏼🏃🏼
Good news for those who don’t live in Dursley…you can do this one anywhere. All you need is a 400m loop (+ or – 25m). Obviously a running track would be perfect, or you can use a street loop like the Crapen in Dursley, or find somewhere near where you live or work.
This one is all about pacing and progression and judgement. All you have to do is run as many consecutive laps of your chosen 400m loop as you can. BUT BUT BUT…each lap must be quicker than the one before it. If you run a slower lap it immediately wipes out your whole score; none of your laps count; you have to start again. So be very careful!
At the end of each lap you need to ask your legs and your lungs if they can go again and go quicker. If you gamble and don’t make it then you lose! If you manage it, then you’ve added another lap to your score and you have another decion to make. It’s all about judgement and knowing what you’ve got left to give.
There will be one winner, the person who achieves the most ‘ever decreasing circles’ – and a booby prize for whoever runs the most laps but then manages to disqualify themselves by running a slower one. Good luck everyone.

Dear DRC member,
We hope that you are continuing to enjoy being a member of Dursley Running Club. It’s now the time of year when club membership renewal payments are due. Please complete the renewal form and pay your subs by 31 October 2017 at the latest (£5 surcharge applies for late payment).
Details of subscription fees and how to pay are on the form. Please complete the form as well as paying, as we need to keep our membership details up to date. If you joined after 1 July 2017 or are a Life member then you do not need to pay. Junior membership renewals will be requested after the club AGM (29 September 2017) and there will be a separate form for this.
Many thanks in advance,
Dursley Running Club Committee
Club Annual General Meeting (AGM) to include club awards, highlights from the year, committee member election and accounts. The bar will be open. Please attend and support your running club.
