We meet & Greet in at front of Hyde Leisure Centre for a 6:30pm start. Joining us for the first time? Come along a few minutes earlier so we can say hello and get you set up in the group thats best for you.

This is a community run not a club, but we have club training ethics training. Our training is unique, in that we do mainly road/off road in Summer months (light nights) and all road in Winter (dark nights).

Also we do a large amount of undulating and hilly courses which we will help you to master. We run along some fantastic scenic routes. For example lots of runs over and around Werneth Low and along canal and river trails. 

We do a repetition session twice a month on every second Wednesday of the month in Winter,  once per month in Summer. These sessions help to improve style, running pace and fitness. Some are  flat repetitions and some are  hill repetitions so there is a  good bit of variety and  club structured fitness.
