Seniors Training  

Challenge yourself in 2024.. our fabulous Run Leaders are there to help you improve, to run longer, to run faster. Our Monday run groups are structured so that we can support you through your current stage of running development. Let us help you move up at least one group this year.

The Wednesday night efforts are ideal for improving your running fitness and speed endurance. If you have not come along before give it a go.. we work hard together, we have fun together.

During the Winter we keep to the roads for the street lights, but as soon as the evenings get lighter, we’re off into the Shropshire countryside for some of the prettiest running around.

On clearer nights, we organise some “head-torch” runs, where we venture into the country lanes for some longer routes.

There is also a run in Ellesmere on Fridays (not organised by the Olympians), meeting at the car park at 6.15pm.

In the lighter evenings in the summer we head off for mainly off road runs to explore the lovely surrounding countryside of Shropshire and Wales.

Keep an eye out for the Summer Run schedules..we are always looking for new routes if you would like to suggest any.
