🏃 The Run
This is a relaxed, social run designed to be welcoming whether you're already running regularly or you're just getting started.
We'll keep the pace comfortable and conversational, with no pressure to race, hit a certain time or keep up with anyone else. The focus is on running together, meeting people and enjoying being outside.
No one gets left behind, and there's no expectation to be the fastest person in the group. Just turn up, lace up and run with us.
Meet Your Run Leader: Krishma
I’m Krishma, an MSK Physio who’s also figuring out this running thing myself.
I’ve definitely been the person who’s still “trying” to love running, so I know how intimidating it can feel to start — especially when it seems like everyone else already considers themselves a runner.
That’s a big part of why I wanted to create this run club. I want it to be somewhere you can turn up, give running a go and build from there, without feeling like you have to be fast, experienced or already “a runner”.
Whether you’re starting from zero, getting back into running, or simply fancy some company, you’re welcome.
My physio brain is a little bonus too. I’ll help us build up sensibly, get stronger and hopefully keep those niggles at bay. But mostly, I’m here to run, chat and figure it out alongside you.
No pressure. No pace expectations. Just good people getting out and moving together.
