Training & club runs
We have five club runs during the week, plus many members at local parkruns. Routes and meeting points change between summer and winter.
Weekly sessions
- Monday - 7:30pm
- Tuesday - 6pm
- Thursday - 6pm and 6:30pm (intervals at 6:30pm, year-round)
- Sunday - 9am (most weeks)
Evening runs are typically around five miles. On Thursdays, the 6:30pm intervals session is open to all abilities and is ideal for building speed.
Summer routes
Trail routes around Southwood and Hartland Country Parks, Fleet Pond, Hawley Woods and Lake, and the woods across the canal from Frimley Lodge Park.
Winter routes
We meet at 6pm and run circular five-mile road routes from Cove Green.
Sunday mornings
Most Sunday mornings we meet at 9:00am at The Samuel Cody School in Farnborough, for a run or walk. Routes vary in distance around Hawley, Minley, Fleet Pond, Basingstoke Canal, Blackwater Valley and Deepcut. Afterward, many members enjoy a hot drink and a chat - the social side matters as much as the miles.
parkrun
Members take part in local parkruns on Saturday mornings, and some enjoy parkrun “tourism” further afield.
What to bring
- Appropriate clothing for the weather, including hi-vis in dusk or dark conditions.
- Water for longer or warmer sessions.
- Contact details on your phone in case of emergency.
