WRR is an England Athletics affiliated running club established in 1977. We have recently been voted as one of the top 20 friendliest running clubs in the country and best off-track running club in the North West.
Our members are a mix of social and competitive runners with ages ranging from 20 to 60 something, roughly one third women. We hold our own club championship and compete in local road races year round, cross country in winter as well as our own handicap events.
We have several social events and an annual long-run weekend. Members can also gain age-related standards and we hold an annual get together to celebrate everyone's achievements.
We meet regularly to run on the footpaths and roads of South Warrington with summer routes including some scenic runs through woodland, fields and canal paths. Our Tuesday run is up to ten miles with several cut-offs. How far you run depends on you but we try to match up “new” runners with “old hands” to introduce you to the routes and to make sure you don't get lost. Our Friday club run is a muster which allows runners to run at different speeds but keep together as a group. We also have some coach led sessions. The training link will provide more details.
Tuesday and Friday 7:00 pm at Broomfields Leisure Centre, Appleton for a 7:10 pm start.
We meet in the car park at the front of the baths.
Thursday 7:00 pm at Victoria Park running track for a speed session.
Sunday morning long slow runs, arranged adhoc on a Friday night.
