About the meetup

A simple local social run

This meetup is being organised to bring together local people who want company for regular exercise, without the pressure of anything formal.

It is intentionally informal and is not coaching, personal training, or medical advice. Participants should use their own judgement, choose a pace that suits them, and only join if the session feels appropriate for their own fitness and health.

Important notice: By attending, runners are joining a casual social meetup rather than a coached session or supervised fitness programme. Everyone takes part voluntarily and at their own discretion.
