Welcome to South Normanton Running Club’s website!
The club is relatively new and isn’t established as yet. As you can see, the website is only basic but should fill up gradually over the coming year as hopefully the club will flourish. I will keep you posted and update the site as often as possible.
Introduction To The Founder
Hi, my name’s Heather and I have only lived in South Normanton with my husband for a short time (a year to be exact). After having a beautiful daughter, (13 months ago) I decided I wanted to get my previous physique back and maybe to surpass it too. As I’ve not been here long I have found it difficult to find clubs or groups that interest me thus, prompting me to take on my own initiative and start a group in what I love to do - RUN! Running can be quite lonely sometimes so I would love to find some like-minded people to practice with, if only for a social! If this sounds right up your street, feel free to get in contact, or just turn up to a running session (times and days are posted on the Club Info page).
If the club flourishes, I may put it to the DCAA (Derbyshire Athletics association) to make it official or rather afilliate it. This will mean that we can compete as a team in competitions and get discounts on entering races!
However, I will not be able to do this on my own. I would be grateful if I could have a volunteers to form the management hierarchy if you could spare the time to make this club happen! It will be as much of a learning curve for me as it will for anyone who volunteers but if we work as team, we’ll do it! Thanks for taking the time to read this.
