Founded in 1886, we’re one of the oldest running clubs in the world, but there’s nothing old-fashioned about our club. We welcome runners of all abilities aged 16 and over. Some of our members started with our supported Couch to 5K programme; others have gone on to compete in major marathons around the world. Most are somewhere in between and everyone is welcomed as part of the club.

The club offers a range of opportunities each week to support your running ambitions and members also benefit from high quality coaching from our experienced coaches and run leaders. We run on and off road so there is always a route or training session to suit the kind of runner you want to be.
