We are a long-established road, cross country and fell running club and welcome men and women of all abilities. We currently have a membership of around 200. We meet at the National Watersports Centre, West Bridgford, Nottingham at 6.45 to run at 7.00 on Mondays and Thursdays except bank holidays.
Summer League The Summer League continues on Wednesday 14th May at the National Watersports Centre. Let's keep our good start to the series going by getting as many people out to run as we can! If you need any extra incentive, it's about the flattest 5 mile course you'll find, so it's a real PB course. Click here for more on the summer league
Grand Prix You can now download an entry form. All the details are on the Grand Prix page. This year's charity is the Maggie's Centres cancer charity which is aiming to build a new centre at the City Hospital.
Derek Dent 1936-2008 It is with great sadness that we have learnt of the sudden death of one of our founding members, Derek Dent, at the age of 71. William Scott and Tony Barry are now dedicating their John O'Groats to Lands End run in memory of Derek and raising money for prostate cancer research. Another former club member will be cycling to Lands End to meet them! A full obituary is now online here.

The Big One - Mission Accomplished! To celebrate our 25th anniversary, we completed our mammoth relay of the length and breadth of the country, from Lands End and Berwick-upon-Tweed to Nottingham. Thanks to all of you who took part and to Derek for having the idea in the first place and for taking on the task of carrying it through. Thanks also to the landlord of the Test Match for the excellent spread laid on for us at the finish. If anyone took photos along the way or can write a report about their leg of the route, please email them and I'll get them on the site. A reports section is starting to take shape on The Big One page. Lots more photos now on the experimental Big One photo gallery.
