Who are we?
We are a friendly group of runners based in the beautiful Thames-side village of Cookham, Berkshire with men and women members ranging from complete beginners to more speedy racing types. Established in 2010, we are affiliated to England Athletics but our ethos remains strongly rooted in the more sociable aspects of the sport: we run, we explore new routes, we are committed to improving, but we also like to chat, over coffee and cakes (or something stronger) when we can.
The Junior section of the club was introduced in 2013 for younger runners, please see Junior section for more information.

Our junior athletes are highly competitive at road, track and cross country, Above all else though we make sure the emphasis for juniors is on fun and we aim to foster a great team spirit.

Couch to 5k
If you have never run before or want to get back into running, the club holds 6 week "Couch to 5km" running courses led by Paddy McGrath, a UK Athletics qualified coach, with the aim of getting you to be able to run 5k at the end of the course. This is a great way to get fit and meet new people, enabling you to join future club runs. For more information, dates and details of the courses contact Peta Bee or Paddy McGrath.
