In 2003 an informal running group was started by two very experienced and qualified endurance coaches, Christine Evans and Martin Brayne.
During the next two years more members and additional coaches joined this group and in the autumn of 2005 a meeting was held to create a more formal club.
On the 1st January 2006 we became the Shrewsbury Road Runners. Since that time the Club has continued to attract new members and we now have approximately 80 members.
CLUB PHILOSOPHY
The Shrewsbury Road Runners Club offers support and encouragement within friendly training sessions to all runners regardless of their ability and/or experience.

Now is the time to consider your winter training plans, especially those of you who have a place in the 2026 London Marathon.
This is very important for first time marathoners. By now you should be running 3 days per week including a mixture of hill, speed and endurance (long) runs.
If not, and you’re in need of some training help then please contact the Shrewsbury Road Runners for some free advice.
Shrewsbury Road Runners is your local friendly running Club, running from 2 separate venues both with free car parking spaces and under cover waiting areas during inclement weather.
Now is also the time to train for those summer events you’ve planned!
We have 3 training groups, catering for a wide range of running ability. Come along to one of our sessions and enjoy running with our friendly members.
