ROAD RUNNING

Road running is the cornerstone of most runners' training and racing schedules. During the course of a season our runners will train for and compete in all types of race, ranging from free to enter, timed runs such as parkrun, right up to the holy grail of many a runner: the full marathon.

5k Races

Ideal for new runners aiming to participate in their first race, or experienced runners looking to sharpen up or shave seconds from their PBs. As well as the numerous parkrun timed runs that take place across the region, other local races that our members participate in include the Mystery 5k series, Christleton 5k, Sale Sizzler series and Halewood 5k

5 Mile Races

Done a few 5k races? Looking to build up to a 10k, but struggling to strike a balance between speed and endurance? A 5 mile race might be the answer. There aren't an awful lot of them around these days, however we are lucky to have a few superb races on our doorstep including the Walton Park 5 miler, the Sefton Park 5 miler, the Chester Spring 5 and the Birkenhead 5 miler.

10k Races

10k races are enormously popular, and with good reason. On one hand, running 6.2 miles demands your respect and attention, but on the other, it isn't so far that you can't train for it—and run several 10ks—in one season. It's one step beyond the 5K and a great way to build up to the half or full marathon distance. Click here for some tips on preparing for and then racing a 10k. Some of our favourite local races are (of course) the Penny Lane Striders 10k, the Sefton Park Spring 10k, the Port Sunlight 10k  and the Mersey Tunnel 10k
