(From M1 - J31 Aston) Head towards Worksop A57. In about 1.5 miles, turn left at Red Lion Pub.(sp Dinington, Recycling Centre) After about a mile you come to a new roundabout (you have past South Yorkshire caravans on the left and there is a petrol station on the roundabout) Take the 3rd exit - go straight on for about 1/2 a mile past new hi-tec business units on both sides. Turn left at the Squirrel pub & go past Rother Valley College and Dinnington High School. If you get to Tesco's - you have missed the turn. At the top of that road there is a (NASTY) crossroads - Go straight on and Dinnington Rugby club is on the left about 300 yards down) Reply to this Comment The 5 miler venues By schamb34 on Tuesday, April 08, 2008 (PST) Hi,   How do you actually find the start for the 5 milers? Do you have the postcodes or OS coords for the venues? I have not done these before and will be using a Tom Tom to find the races.   Thanks,   Steve Reply to this Comment SY5M venues By ratkinson on Tuesday, April 08, 2008 (PST) Steve,   I believe that the Hayfield race is at:-   Hayfield Lakes Hayfield Lane Auckley South Yorkshire DN9 3NP Tel: 01302 864555 and the Dinnington race is at:-   Dinnington Rugby Club Lodge Lane Dinnington Nr Sheffield  South Yorkshire S25 2PB  Tel: 01909 562044  I believe that Worsborough race is at:-   Worsbrough Mill Country Park Worsbrough Bridge Barnsley S70 5LJ Telephone/Fax: 01226 774527   but i'm not certain   The Penistone race I haven't done so I can't help there i'm afraid.   If anyone knows different or can add anything please do so.   Cheers   Russell   ps. Good Luck!   Reply to this Comment 5 milers - directions By bobpringle on Tuesday, April 08, 2008 (PST) Thanks to Russell for SY 5 miler addresses etc. For those without Tom-Toms, I'll be posting directions to each from Sheffield about 3 days before each race. I'll be at each race to give out race numbers - last year £5 for the series of 4 races - good value, good atmosphere etc. Bob Reply to this Comment Hayfield 5 mile road race By will bealby on Monday, April 14, 2008 (PST) Bob has asked me to hand out numbers & collect money at the Hayfield race this Wednesday as he will now not be there. Easiest route from Sheffield is onto the M18 until junction 3, follow the A18 anti-clockwise around Doncaster until the A638 turn towards Bessacarr & Bawtry, through Bessacarr and the turn for Hayfield is on the left, also signposted for Robin Hood Airport. The race is based at the Pub/Fishing lake complex which is down a lane on the left before you get into Hayfield village. I'll be there from about 18:30 with numbers (£6 for the series). I'll have some spare safety pins, but it would be good if people can bring their own.   Reply to this Comment Hayfield (2008 Race 1) Club Results By nevans-mudie on Thursday, May 01, 2008 (PST) Venue: Hayfield; Date: 16-Apr-2008; Weather: Showery with Hail!

I have managed to arrive at the first 3 events thus far without getting stressed and very lost, and risking the lives of other road users (driving and map reading do not work well together).   This is the first time that I have done the 5 milers and I can really recommend them. They are long enough to improve your VO2max, whilst recovering well for the next day. There are over 200 whippets at the 5 mile races and competition is tough, so it really makes you work hard. I have managed to get a 5 mile PB and a PB for the first Triathlon of the season (Horwich) thanks to this series!   Cheers,   Steve   Reply to this Comment Dinnington (2008 Race 3) Club Results By nevans-mudie on Tuesday, May 06, 2008 (PST) Venue: Dinnington; Date: 30-Apr-2008; Weather: Sunny Place Name Club Time Pc of Winner Fastest: 27:06 (Martin Broadhead, Kimb); Slowest: 41:54 17 Neil Evans-Mudie ShTr 30:34 112.8% 21 Stephen Chamberlain ShTr 31:26 116.0% 41 Richard Powell ShTr 33:33 123.8% 45 Will Bealby ShTr 34:49 128.5% Reply to this Comment Final 5 Mile Road Race By will bealby on Tuesday, May 13, 2008 (PST) For anyone who's not sure, the Worsborough race on Wednesday at 7 can be found as follows: M1 J36, follow A61 towards Birdwell/Barnsley, Worsborough is a couple of miles along this road, parking on the right at the bottom of the hill.     Reply to this Comment Worsbrough (2008 Race 4, finale) Club (& Series) Results By nevans-mudie on Monday, May 19, 2008 (PST) Venue: Worsbrough; Date: 14-May-2008; Weather: Sunny Place Name Club Time Pc of Winner Fastest: 27:15 (Nick Swift, ShRC); Slowest: 41:25 Series Winners: Individual - Snr.

The training necessary to do your best in one sport is likely to counteract what is needed to be good at another. But the ? remains: Can you train optimally for three sports at the same time?... MUSCLES: Are yours healthy? This is not the kind of question most people ask themselves, but muscle researchers say it is important because muscle health is emerging as an important part of overall health. And they say when it comes to muscles, bulk does not matter. But how can you make sure you have healthy muscles?... Triathlon Series around Greater Manchester Check out this series of triathlons.
