The club is proud to offer 9 club runs, each with a different focus, so members can choose the runs that best suit individual levels of ability. Please use this page and guide to choose appropriate runs to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all members.
We operate a ‘turn-back’ approach, with faster runners turning back to slower runners at different points during a run, ensuring all members start and finish at the same time.
Please note that if you wish to participate in a run above your current capacity, please start early before the TRR formal run. In doing so, you will be taking the personal responsibility to run alone, so please ensure you implement appropriate safety strategies. For example, organise a running friend, bring a mobile phone and any necessary accessories such as water, torches and first aid. Individual runners can also download the course maps on our website.
