Fenland Running Club
We were formed in April 1992 by amalgamation of the
Elmfield Joggers and the Wisbech Athletic Club.
(Read the Club Constitution)
The Club is affiliated to the South of England A.A. and to the Cambridgeshire County association.
Our colours are white/purple vest with purple shorts.

We are a relatively small club with
about fifty members - mostly from Wisbech and surrounding villages.
These members are of varying abilities, from potential race winners to fitness joggers,
and it is the stated aim of the Club to help and encourage each and every one regardless
of ability.

Although originally formed as an Athletics Club the concentration is now on year-round road running,
at distances up to the marathon, with cross-country running in season.
We enter teams each year in the very popular Round Norfolk and Hereward Relays
and we organise outings to the London and other big-city Marathons as well as to the Great North Run.

The Club holds an open event
- the Fenland Ten Mile race - run each year in late October.
Most members contribute in some way to the successful organisation of this increasingly
popular race.
|
|
|
There are various social
events from time-to-time throughout the year.
These are described in a regular newsletter distributed to all members.
|
|
 |
Training nights are Tuesday and Thursday, 6:30 p.m., meeting in the changing rooms of Wisbech
Rugby Club. This is easily accessible from the
Chapel Road Car Park.

If you are interested in becoming a member we suggest that you try us out first by attending
two or three training evenings without commitment. Then you can apply for membership on a form
obtainable from the membership secretary or by printing
out this

The annual subscription is £15 for individuals or £20 for a family.
