We pride ourselves on being the kind of club that can help and encourage you to get the most out of your running. Whether your interest is running for fun, getting fit, or training for anything from a 5K race to a marathon, we can help you achieve your aims.

Anyone is welcome to come along to our training sessions and run, regardless of age or ability - we have groups for everyone so you don't have to run alone.

We organise evening runs and weekend runs - both on and off road. Come along on a Wednesday night and see for yourself!

JW Ultra Relay - 25th September 2010

We are looking to enter a few relay teams in the 30 mile JW Ultra, there are 3 in a team, each member runs a 10 mile leg. It proved to be very popular last year, and you could also assist our 7 club members doing the full 30 mile run. There will be an entry fee. Please email me at gf@rede2.com to register your interest.

Badminton Horseless Trials - 3rd October 2010

Another popular event in the Almost Athletes calendar. We entered 6 teams last year and won the Mens' & ladies' individual prizes and a team prize, so we are looking not only to defend our crowns, but also try and maybe get 8 teams entered. There is a choice of a 5 mile and 9 mile run, please let me know which you prefer and I will sort out the teams. There will be an entry fee. Please email me at gf@rede2.com to register your interest.

Bugatti Recce Runs - Friday 23rd and 30th July

As in previous years I have organised a recce run for the Bugatti, this year's race is on the 4th August 2010. This year I would like to offer both the 23rd & 30th July as recce run evenings, as I know some of you will be on holiday. We will meet at the Bugatti Pub at 7pm, the run will last just over an hour, and for those new runners in the race and the more experienced runners it's a good taster of what to expect. Please email me at gf@rede2.com to register your interest.

We will then return to our usual Friday night venue of the Exmouth on the 6th August 2010.
