RIOT Time Trial - The Final!
This is your last chance to test your time and see whether you can beat your benchmark set several months ago...
The last time trial of 2020 will be live from Saturday 28th November - Friday 4th December.
As before, you can take on either the Climb or Descent of the West Stafford Bypass route or the Rugby Club Intro to TT route.
Don't forget, you must be a member of the RIOT Strava Club (https://www.strava.com/clubs/dorchester-riot-319400) to have your time recorded.
Good Luck!

Festive 24 - 2020
This is the fourth running of our Blue Ribbon challenge event Festive 24!
Festive 24 is a challenging event for a number of reasons and it appeals to every type of runner from the fastest to those that are early into their run journey.
Objective:
Can you complete 24 runs in the 24 days leading up to Christmas.
Rules:
- Run once a day for a minimum of 3 miles OR 30 minutes.
- If you get behind on runs you can run more than once in a day to catch up. However the rest period in between runs has to be a minimum of 90 minutes.
- You can never be ahead of the runs. For example, after 10 days the maximum amount of runs you could have submitted is 10. Anymore than this and they would not count.
- Treadmill runs count.
---
This challenge has run for four years with great success and lots of great stories, however we want everyone to navigate it as safely as possible (don't forget to warm up and stretch). Therefore, if you are newer to running or not currently up to running every day, we want to encourage you to tackle the challenge but also conscious to not overload you, so, if you fall in to that category and you feel like posting the occasional ‘fast’ walk we will not flag that activity. Please note though that recording on Strava the 'Christmas shop', 'the walk with the family along the beach' and/or 'housework' would not count as one of your Festive 24 runs.
How do I sign up?
- Simply join the Festive 24 Strava group and thats it: https://www.strava.com/clubs/festive24
- Feel free to encourage friends and family to take on the challenge.
Good luck all and we kick off on the 1st December.

🏅Medal Monday🏅
This weekend saw RIOTers bring the latest club challenge to a close in phenomenal style!
With almost 3000 miles ran within the club this week, the incentive of those big ticket items plus some bonus treats from the Monmouth Rd book exchange, Brown Goose Catering, and the elusive Committee forfeits clearly worked in getting everyone out running. Hopefully you're all now having a well earnt rest... Until the next challenge!

We are now half way through our new lockdown challenge "Every Mile Counts". The 7 day event has seen our members raise hundreds for local charities supporting the homeless and vulnerable adults this Christmas.
So far members have clocked up enough miles to add several prizes into our shoebox appeal, and even sentenced some committee members to forfeits as an extra bonus.
With another 3 and a half days left to go, will it stay full steam ahead, or will the miles, and prizes, start to dwindle...
