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.

Mid-Lancs Cross Country League Presentation - The Men - 21 April 2017

It was October 2013, in the first year of the club’s existence, that we joined this league in division four.  In what has been a remarkable journey, we gained promotion every subsequent year to the next division, culminating this year in becoming the league champions.  Not only did we win the league as a team, but the club also took the honours in the individual competition, with Tom Corrigan comfortably beating  James Douglas from Border Harriers to become overall league champion.  On reading this, anyone not knowing this league, might think that we had been up against a host of mediocre clubs.  On the contrary, we were opposed by many top quality clubs in the Lancashire area (and beyond).  The main differerence between us was that our top runners were prepared to turn out for each event and represent their club and that perhaps aptly demonstrates the spirit within the club.
