Cost Free Event
Meet us at the Jersey side of GWB for a 200km route. We would like this to be a fast ride and challenging ride, so come prepared!

Black Sheep has been championing Men’s Mental Health since 2016. This focus is not because mental illness doesn't impact women - far from it. Rather, it stems from understanding that causation, intervention, and prevention strategies can be gender-specific.

This year's Man Ride - MR23 - is set for October 7th. It will be hosted in 20+ locations around the world and all about “Going the distance for men’s mental health” - a combination of mass participation and smaller satellite rides. The distance for everyone will be a challenge - but that is what this whole event is about; overcoming adversity.

Join Kevin and Tom to ride 200km.

• 8:00am meeting at the Jersey side of the GWB
• 200km total ride, plan for 5-6 hours of riding (happy to do it faster)
• Two Stops: One stop at mile 46 and one stop at mile 84

Organizer Organized by Amazing Feet Beginning Runners Group and Social Club!!
Inviting all beginner runners to come together this Saturday. Amazing Feet is a Running and Walking group. We typically have a large group each Saturday. There are runners and walkers of all paces from absolute beginners to marathoners.

As a beginning runner, you may consider running a short distance, and then walking a short distance. Alternating between the two until you feel more comfortable. You will not be alone. There are many people just starting out

This is a very social, supportive group. Our whole group is rooting for each other to achieve the goals we set for ourselves. Sometime just showing up is achievement of a goal! We understand that.

The goal is to have you enjoy yourself and begin to get into the sport. You do not have to ever have been a runner. Please don't worry if not many accept this invite, Amazing Feet has many participants. You will not be alone.
