Run with us

When do we run?

Every Wednesday at 7pm from the clubhouse — plus coached sessions through the week. Everyone is welcome, from beginners to regular runners.

Your first Wednesday

Wednesday’s club run is the session we recommend for anyone new. Can’t make a Wednesday for your first visit? Get in touch.

  1. 7:00pm

    Arrive and hear the notices

    Come to the clubhouse on Beldams Lane. Notices for the week first — a good moment to say hello.

  2. 7:15pm

    Head out in groups

    Groups run at different paces. If you’re new, we’ll pair you with a buddy or a group that suits you — nobody gets left on their own.

  3. By 8:00pm

    Back at the clubhouse

    Distances vary with each group’s pace, but most people are back by 8.

  4. After

    Food, drink and a chat

    Showers, a bar and hot food. Book food a few days ahead on myclubhouse — most runners stay for a drink.
