For river runs on Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, please arrive at our clubhouse changed and ready to run. At the Wednesday track sessions, we have use of the changing facilities at the Athletics Centre. Please arrive early if you need to change, as we cannot wait for any latecomers to start the session.

We welcome runners of every pace, but we recommend that you can run at least a continuous 5K before joining our road runs or track sessions in order to ensure maximum enjoyment.

There is limited bike parking at the clubhouse for the river runs with two bike racks. For Wednesday track sessions, there is bike parking on the covered patio at the Athletics Centre, or you can lock your bike to the railings at the track.

You can leave your bag in the clubhouse for the road running sessions, but please note that any belongings are left at your own risk. The club cannot accept liability for lost, stolen or damaged items. For track sessions, you can either leave your bag at the side of the track, or make use of the lockers inside the Athletics Centre. Please bring a padlock if you wish to use a locker. As always, any belongings are left at your own risk.

Our club is the largest of its kind, which is free to join and unsponsored by a brand. As you can imagine, it takes a lot of work to operate! We rely on a huge volunteer base to be viable, and are lucky to have a huge community of runners around us who choose to give back to the club in many different ways.
