Fell Running SectionThe club's fell runners meet on Wednesday nights at 7pm (or 7.30pm for some races). The Wednesday night run is normally 1-1.5 hours on the fells during "summer time" or on local hilly roads in the winter. After the run we normally re-hydrate in a pub close by.The runs are from a different location each week, look in the club calendar for the venues. If you are interested in joining the group, just turn up and introduce yourself. The group is quite varied in pace, and we make sure we don't lose any newcomers! Fell HandicapClick here for results.
