RIOT (Running Is Our Therapy) Consett

Welcome to RIOT Consett

Our small non-affiliated running group is part of RunTogether, which was created by England Athletics.  Most of our sessions take place in and around the Consett area and we welcome runners of all abilities - we are pleased to offer a range of sessions to suit all abilities and aspirations.  We are a friendly community-spirited group and our ethos is one of support and encouragement, whatever your running ambition is. 

Tuesday & Thursday 6.30pm:

One of our qualified Run Leaders will support you on a 3-4 mile run around the local area - this is a great opportunity to meet new runners and share running stories.   We welcome runners of all abilities, experience and ambition - there is no such thing as a slow runner, no-one gets left behind and you may just have a giggle or two along the way!  We are non-judgemental, supportive and informal - everyone has something to offer and we always love to see new (and old!) faces. 

Please book your place via the RIOT Consett page on the RunTogether website, or the Run Together runner app.

Our Run Leaders take it in turns to lead the session and we offer a mix of runs and drill sessions.  Please check our Facebook page for further information.

If you are unable to attend a session you have booked on, as a courtesy to your Run Leader and your fellow runners please cancel your place or let your Run Leader know. 

Thank you for joining our group, our Run Leaders welcome you to RIOT Consett and look forward to supporting you on your running journey!

Run Leaders: Jo Priestley, Sharon Willis and Emir Dobson
