Joining the club
We would love to see you join us. Joining the club is totally free and easy. There are no charges for any of our training sessions. You just need to complete an online form and we will confirm your membership after processing your application. We will also give you access details for the use of our free training diary on Team Up.
Training
Our training philosophy is to have fun with our running whilst enabling runners to reach their potential and get the most from their training. Our training sessions are suitable for all runners who are able to run at least 5km (3.1 miles) continuously. We use a combination of steady running, interval training, hills and off road runs. We currently train twice in the week - on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. We also meet on Sunday mornings for a longer training run. We are currently trialling Wednesday and Friday early morning runs throughout the Winter.
The Phoenix 5 race, 11th May 2025 at 10am
We are very proud to be hosting the second Phoenix 5. Over four hundred runners enjoyed the inaugural race in 2024 and for 2025 we are making the event bigger and better! It will also feature a new 1 mile fun run. The 5 mile route starts and finishes in Shephalbury Park and enjoys Fairlands Valley north and south and passes the Lamex stadium. There is a bespoke medal, technical t shirt and sweet treats waiting for all finishers!
We will be making a donation to our selected charities from the race proceeds.
All of our training sessions are powered by the Team Up app. This gives all of our members easy access to our training sessions and club activities from their desktop or mobile device. Members can download the app to their mobile device and copy in the URL that is given to them when they join the club.
