CAN YOU ALREADY RUN 5K?
If you can already run 5K we'd love to welcome you to one of our friendly social running groups. At MileShyClub all runners of all ages and abilities are supported and encouraged - whether you're aiming to improve your pace, build up your distance or simply enjoy running with great company.
Our qualified coaches are on hand to help if you're looking to run further or faster, but there's absolutely no pressure to! Many of our members join us for a relaxed, chatty run whilst others appreciate the confidence and safety that comes from running as part of a group - especially during the darker winter months. Whatever your reason for running, you'll find a warm welcome and a supportive community waiting for you.
We have a dedicated 5K group at all of our running clubs and with locations across Trafford, Salford, Stockport and Manchester there's bound to be one near you. If you're ready to take the next step we have 10K training clubs group at our Sale and Urmston clubs - our no one gets left behind ethos still applies.
It costs just £2 a session on a pay as you go basis (contactless or in cash on the day). MileShyClub is a registered charity so every penny goes towards our various community projects that help get people active.
