So I guess you could say i'm one of the founding members. FOMP run club started off as a few friends from Saturday Circuit and this year marks our 3 year anniversary. FOMP run club is still a bunch of friends its just gone from 4 to over 100+ members. Why do I run? Initially I started to lose some weight. Today that's still the same with the added bonus of running with a group of amazing people. The club is run by regular runners for regular runners that just want to meet up and enjoy some miles every Tuesday evening. I've achieved so much since starting the club from running 5k to completing the London Marathon twice. Once on my own and the second with Elizabeth (run leader), Chris B (run leader) and Sarah (run club member). So if you're thinking of starting to run FOMP Run Club is the place to begin your journey.
