Summary of Group:
We are a twice (plus) weekly running group catering for all levels, with four different paced groups running on Mondays nights, and two groups enjoying a run together with a pint afterwards on a Thursday!
We make sure we have fun and take nothing too serious, having a laugh and enjoying running is more important that smashing PB's, but we like to see improvement if that’s what the teams wants.
Many of our leaders are also club runners.
This group is linked to a Welsh Athletics Running Club: Fairwater Runners Cwmbran
