Car parking, changing facilities & showers are available.

​

We have a number of different training groups, running at different speeds designed to suit runners of all standards. Routes tend to be undulating (this is Oldham after all!), usually off-road in & around Tandle Hill Country Park in the summer & on the roads when evenings are darker. 

​

Runners aged 18 & over of any ability & experience are welcome to come along to give us a try. If you wish to speak to someone beforehand, please contact one of the people listed on our Contacts/Officials page.

​

All of our training groups are led by volunteers (each of whom has plenty of running experience) with the emphasis on sociable runs rather than 'hard training'.

​

We don't want things to be too regimented, but the safety of all runners is paramount - at least one person in each group should carry a mobile phone in case of emergencies, nobody will be left behind, routes will be chosen to avoid dangerous roads & it is the personal responsibility of EVERY runner to be visible to traffic, wearing suitable reflective clothing, especially on darker nights. When we run off-road during the summer we ask you to make sure that you are wearing appropriate footwear.

 

Other than that, it's all about the pleasure of running regularly with like-minded people of a similar standard!
