Our regular runs are on a Tuesday morning at 6:30 and on a Thursday evening at 5:50 for a 6pm start. Take a look at this page for full details.

All regular runs meet at Clarence Park in Bury at the Jubilee Centre next to the Lido.

On a Thursday we have 5k, 7k and 10k options. If you feel you’re not ready for that, try our Jeffing group and we’ll get you there.

Our Thursday runs cater for all abilities. Our Jeffing group is an ideal starting point, alternating 30 seconds of running with 30 seconds of walking. Our social runs are at a conversational pace, and the stretch runs tend to be at a steady pace of 6:15 to 6:30 per km.
