Tuesday Nights

Tuesday night is the club’s primary running night, meeting at Ledbury Rugby Club at 6:30pm to set off at 6:45pm.

These are social runs allowing members to get together and run with a group at a pace they are comfortable with. As a running club we are lucky to have several qualified run leaders, and each group has a lead running to organise and manage the run. For a few handy mugshots of some of our run leaders click here!

We typically run in 6 groups so that ability and speed are all catered for:

  • Jeffers – walk & run as the group pleases. 3 miles
  • Gentle Joggers – 11 – 12 min mile pace, around 3 – 4 miles
  • Easy Runners-  10 – 11  min mile pace, around 4 miles.
  • Runners – 9 -10 min mile pace, around 4 – 5 miles
  • Sprinters –  8 – 9 min mile pace, around 5 –6 miles
  • “Fast” group –  7 – 8 min mile pace, around 7-8 miles

Whichever group you decide to go in, you will be looked after and never get left behind. Club runs operate on a muster / tracking-back principle, which means that runners who reach a muster point before those at the back of the group must run back to pick them up. This ensures that back-runners get as long a rest as front runners, and that front-runners get an extra bit of running in! The aim is always for you to enjoy your running!
