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.

York Marathon - 20 October 2024

It was wild at wet at this race.  It was reasonably dry for the first half, but went downhill from there.  John Boothman continues to race without the corresponding training and the cracks are beginning to show.  He enjoyed a good race for the first fifteen miles, but then his pace began to drop off and the last 2K were a disaster.  In view of his lack of preparation and training John thought that finishing around the four hour mark would be a good result, so given the situation in which he found himself,  he was happy with his time.

Further down the field Raymond Banks had a good run to finish 4th in his category
