The Monthly Meet-Up

We know life gets busy, and as our club grows, it can be hard to remember all the new faces. Plus, it’s always nice to catch up when we’re not out of breath on a hill!

That’s why we’re launching The Monthly Meet-Up — a chance to relax, chat, and connect on the first Wednesday of every month, right after the club run at The Waterside Bar.

Whether you’re new, a regular, taking it easy walking the trim trail, or currently injured, we’d love to see you!
