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.

Mont Blanc Trail Races - 27 June 2026

John Boothman, Pete Jackson and Glenn Whittaker went over to Chamonix for these races.  Glenn entered the 10K race and earned a podium place by finishing third in his age category.   He was an impressive 278th out of 1841 starters.  Pete and John did the 23K race, which is actually 25K and has some tough climbs on terrain which is very similar to the Lake District.  Pete was 5th in his age category and John was 15th.  However, they have different age splits to what we are used to.  The weather there was hot, the scenery was stunning and it was an amazing experience for all three runners.

10K Race
278 Glenn Whittaker 1:02:18 (3rd in age category)

23K Race
641 John Boothman 4:11:26 (15th in age category)
956 Pete Jackson 4:36:06 (5th in age category)
