I joined the club in January 2017 without any real running experience. The only runs I had done before were in football training and on match days, so no real distance running. I started off on the couch 2 5k programme and by the April I had run my first continuous 5k in a park run. We got taught all about proper technique and so on . By the summer I attempted my first 10k race in the Cheltenham Challenge, and completed it on the hottest day of the year, something I thought I would never do, but thanks to Conor and other members of the club quite a few of us managed this. Since then I have done a few 10k’s a lot of park runs (5k’s) and am lining myself up for the Reading half Marathon in March . This is such a great friendly club, come and give us a go you won’t be disappointed.

I wanted to get back into running after a break of 2 years. I set myself the Cheltenham half marathon in Oct as my target. The club got me going again and they are so welcoming and inclusive. Connor gives great advice. I thoroughly recommend the club and am constantly telling friends about it.

I started with some trepidation as a couch potato in Jan 2017 and by the end of March I had done my first Park Run (5km). I continued running throughout 2017 as a stress buster and the club coach, Conor Graham, helped me with my technique and stamina. Now at the beginning of 2018 I am working towards my first Half Marathon. Completely unbelievable and I would have given up a long time ago without Cheltenham Running Club. Highly recommended.

It is a very good club for those beginning to run whatever age you are. There is a very friendly atmosphere to encourage people to reach their goal. This is one of the best running clubs in Cheltenham.
