Founded in 1998 our club motto has always been ‘Fitness, Friendship and Fun’. With the main aim of attracting people to the sport. Many of our first claim members are new to running. The club programme is fairly informal, with an emphasis on team events but does include ‘pack’ runs, structured speed work sessions and also encourages participation in the busy local scene including Track and Field, Mid Lancs cross country and the popular Inter Club Grand Prix series. There are a great variety of age groups and abilities and newcomers can be sure of encouragement and camaraderie.

I am only looking to train for the Virgin London Marathon, how will I find others to train with?

The club always has allocated marathon places plus other experienced marathoners. There would hopefully be someone available of your speed and requirements. If that’s not possible it’s down to links within the club – asking around to try and find a training buddy! The coaches always have helpful advice with training schedules.
