Interested?

As a club we offer up to 3 free sessions so you can see if we are the club for you. Before your first session please complete a new runners’ induction form (link at the top of this page, this is not a membership form – see ‘Join us’ at the top for that).

What to expect on a Thursday night?

Please arrive at Wootton Community Centre before 7.20pm and ask someone to introduce you to a run leader (they will be wearing a run leader T shirt). Following some short announcements – we divide into 6 groups. Group 1 is for the fastest runners & group 6/7 is for the slowest. The run leaders will tell you about the session – usually a series of timed ‘efforts’ aiming to build fitness & running technique. We start with a warm up run and end with a warm down & stretching exercises. The session ends back at the club around 8.45pm.

Beginner?

If you don’t think you are ready for this length of session. One of our members (Rob Burgess) runs regular ‘Runners for Beginners’ sessions.

You can find out more about this on Facebook, click here or search for Running for Beginners.
