Wednesday Run

The Wednesday Run takes place at 6.30pm from Cutters Wharf car park every week. If you are interested in running with us, please read the Wednesday Run FAQ. Distance and pace vary across the group with some covering 14 miles at 7/8 min mile pace or others 3 miles at 10/11 min mile pace. Runners of all abilities are encouraged and welcome to join us. Please check the Wednesday run thread for updates. If you are new to running, we recommend that you complete the training plan in our "Beginners" section before turning up for the Wednesday run.


Wednesday Training Sessions

On certain weeks, specific training sessions will be run alongside the regular Wednesday run. Details will also be posted on the Wednesday thread on the U&R forum. A regular session will always be run in addition to these sessions.


Weekend Runs

Longer Saturday or Sunday runs are also arranged on the forum. Saturday runs are usually from Cutters around 10am (8 miles and up). Sunday runs are typically at noon at the Ozone, Ormeau Park. Please check the U&R forum for updates each week.


Ad-hoc Runs

There are plenty of ad-hoc runs that are organised by club members and members of the forum network, through the Up & Running Talkback Forum. As many of these runs are planned to meet specific training programmes leading to a race, for example a marathon, and in the interest of safety, we ask people not known to the originator of the run not to turn up without prior agreement. Normally, once people have been out with the club on a couple of occasions, it will be possible to match your experience, ability & level of fitness to existing members so you can take part in whatever of these runs fits in to your requirements.


Beginner Runs

New runners are asked to come along to the Wednesday run. An FAQ dealing with all aspects of the Wednesday run can be found HERE. The idea is to match runners of similar ability for better motivation and to enjoy running as a group. All abilities are actively encouraged whether you are following a run/walk plan or running 6 min mile. The more the merrier! You can also check the Wednesday run thread or Beginners thread for updates. If you are interested in joining the Sunday run, please contact Barbs via the Sunday Run thread on the forum.
