Three pace groups. One welcoming club.

Our Monday runs have three main groups, so runners can find a comfortable place to start and progress. The groups are flexible, and you can move between them as your confidence and fitness grow.

  • Group 1Relaxed pace: about 10.5–12 min/mile

    Build confidence, find a running rhythm and enjoy sharing the miles.

  • Group 2Steady pace: about 9–10.5 min/mile

    Develop fitness and endurance while enjoying a sociable group run.

  • Group 3Faster pace: about 8–9 min/mile

    Maintain a quicker pace, develop performance and work towards your running goals.

Across the three groups, typical running paces range from around 8 to 12 minutes per mile. These are a guide, not rigid categories; ask a run leader if you’re unsure where you’ll feel comfortable.
