The club is taking the decision to stop all of our scheduled training sessions and postpone the planned 5k race. The resumption of training will be primarily based on the advice issued by the government.

England Athletics advises that all face-to-face activity such as club training sessions, events, competitions, club committee and face-to-face meetings, athlete camps, running groups and social events should be suspended until at least the end of May. England Athletics statement

Congratulations to Andy Stalley, winner of the club place for VLM 2020.

Well done to the winner of the 41st Recurring Handicap (07/03/20) - Jolyon Brand.

Lisa Rooney represented Surrey in the SEAA Inter-County XC at Oxford 07/12/19

Track sessions - We're now at the David Weir Centre on Mon nights every week, 7:15 for a 7:30 start.

Latest scoring in the 2019/20 Club Competitions is on the Competitions page now (26/01/20).

A new M50 course record (42:51) for our men at the Nonsuch Relay 06/07/16.

A fantastic 1-2-3 at the Tour of Epsom (9-13/06/14) with Roger, Gordon and Richard F taking the honours.

Team prizes - a few weeks after the men took the team prize at the Tadworth 10, this weekend (26/01/14) they also took the team prize at The Perch. There were also individual awards for Neil Reissland (1st), Roger Bryant (1st M40) and Mary James (2nd).

A splendid turn-out of 51 for the inaugural Collingwood Mile Champs - The Andrew Griffin Mile. Winners were Neil Reissland and Mary James. Results

We sadly have to report the death of Andrew Griffin. It seems Andrew collapsed whilst out running yesterday (16/07/13). He was a valued member for the last 8 years, often representing the club, and a true gentleman. He will be missed. Our condolences go to his family, wife Gill and daughter Rebecca.

The club is growing all the time. We currently have around 100 members ranging from casual runners to the highly competitive.

If you're a teeny bit interested, why not try before you buy - come along to our HQ on a training evening (Tue/Thur 6:45pm for a 7:00pm start) and check us out.

Or you'll find us meeting for long runs on Sundays when we're not racing, on Stafford Rd., Wallington at Mellows Park car park (9:00am).

Runners of all standards welcome - this means you.

Quiz night at Croygas: the next quiz is Sat 8 Feb. Teams of 6. £5 or £10 including fish and chips or veggie option.

This site is for members and non-members alike. Hopefully you'll find some useful information within these pages whether you're with or without us. Although most of the results listed in the right hand pane are focussed on members' performances, there are many links to the full results of races as well.
If you're not a member - have you thought about joining a club? It can offer you some benefits:

training advice
cheaper race entries - save £2 or more on road race entry fees when you're a member of an affiliated club. Entry to league and most of the championship cross-country events is even cheaper - we pay your entry fee!
discounts in some of the better sports shops - 5 to 10% on production of your membership card
like-minded people to train with on those cold, wet nights, and even the warm and dry ones as well
