Membership fees

Despite the name, the club participates in all disciplines of running, fell, cross country and road and welcomes applications from runners of all abilities to join us. If you are not sure if the club is for you, why not come to one of our training sessions or one of our regular pub runs. You will be under no obligation to join, but you will get a feel for the club and a better idea if the club is for you. You can merely turn up to a training session unannounced, but it would be better if you contacted our club secretary first (details on the contacts page) and let him know that you will be coming and he will make sure that whoever is leading the group will look out for you. If you are an absolute beginner to running, you too are most welcome to join us in one of our sessions, but please contact our secretary first and he will make sure that you will have a programme with which you are comfortable.

It was a real battle at the front of this race between Jimmy Craig and Marc Hartley.  These two built up a large early lead over the rest of the field and then Marc gradually started to pull away from Jimmy.   As the race progressed, the chasing pack, led by Jonny McKenna, started to close the gap and at the end, he was just over 20 seconds behind Jimmy.
