WEDNESDAY CLUB RUNS
Our main club runs take place on a Wednesday morning in Norman Park. Once you have graduated from our Beginner's Group and joined the Club, there are five other running groups to choose from below.
We currently meet just inside the entrance to the Norman Park Community Sports Centre at the Hayes Lane car park whatever the weather. There will always be plenty of blue shirts there (and Red Leaders*) so you can't miss us! Most runs start from 9.45am and tend to finish around 11/11.15. All are a variety of road or trail. Afterwards we enjoy teas and coffees at the Sports Centre.
*All our Wednesday runs are led by qualified Leaders (see the red shirts).
