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.

Red Rose Cross Country League - 6 December 2025

It was a pity that Matthew Watson did not register for this league, because he ran a blinder, finishing 3rd overall and 1st Vet.  Gary Shaw is another who is a remarkable runner for his age as his Ben Whitehad and all three ended first in their age categories.  If all our runners had counted, we would have been 2nd Vets team.

3 Matthew Watson 33:21 (1st V45)
11 Gary Shaw 36:33 (1st V50)
12 Ben Whitehead 36:40 (1st V40)
35 Andy Berry 42:03

In the ladies race, Hayley Whitehead led our girls home and was another to finish firest in her category - a double for the Whitehead family.

17 Hayley Whitehead 28:12 (1st L35)
19 Paula Cullen 28:44
35 Lucy Brown 31:19
