Welcome to the Clowne Road Runners website. I'm
guessing that you have landed here as you have an interest
in running and live in North East Derbyshire. Hopefully you
will find the information you are after on the website, if not,
then please feel free to email one of the contact points.

We aim to make everyone feel welcome to our club. Indeed
our members consist of runners of all standards and ages -
please don't delay coming along to see us because you
believe club runners are all elite athletes (I made this
mistake!). In terms of ages, our members cover the age
range from 16 right up to 80. We have a sizeable contingent
of lady runners as well.

If you are interested then I suggest that you come down to one of both of the following:

Our Thursday night training sessions - we meet at 7pm outside Clowne Community
Centre (Recreation Close, S43 4PL). Sessions are varied and there is normally the
option of either a challenging session designed to build up speed, or an easy run. All
sessions are led by qualified coaches.

Our regular meetings on the 1st Friday of each month at Clowne Community Centre
(7pm for 7.30pm start). This is an opportunity to find out more about how the club
runs, have a social chat and ask questions.

You might also be amazed at how many active members we have who like to get
involved, but do not run! Many of us also enjoy the odd pint of beer - the Community
Centre always has some well-kept real ale on at very reasonable prices!

We try to be a very social club and have various club outings throughout the year.
There are running weekends away, race meetings, social evenings with other clubs,
our Christmas party / presentation evening, a club handicap race and a series of
cross country races every January/February against other local clubs.

If you would like more information before coming along to see us, or would like to
make sure there will be someone available to ask for when you come down,
please email me and we can arrange something.

Jim McIntosh
