Welcome to the Aston Gazelle's Running Club!
The Gazelles are back for 2023/2024 and aim to improve on the success of the previous years. We run two structured run training sessions per week: Tuesday with City of Birmingham Stryders Running Club and Thursday with our level 4 England Athletics running coach - Chris. There is also a circuit training session every Friday morning. We attend regular park runs as a team. We also compete as a team in events such as BUCS Cross Country and the Great Birmingham Run. We will host regular socials throughout the year.
So whether you're new to running or a competitive athlete we cater to all needs and aim to improve all levels of ability over the course of the year. At the Gazelles we want to improve our times as well as have good times.
Training Times:
- Tuesday, 6:30 pm-7:30 pm with the City of Birmingham Stryders Running Club. Meeting outside Woodcock Sports Centre at 6:30 pm
- Thursday, 6:00 pm-7:00 pm with our level 4 running coach - Chris. Meet outside the SU at 6 pm (or just inside if the weather is crap)
- Friday, 8:00 am-9:00 am, circuit training (in collab with the Swimming & Water Polo team) in the SU.
- Saturday morning Parkrun. Location TBC on a week-by-week basis (most likely Edgbaston Reservoir or Cannon Hill Park).
Any other questions, happy to help out.
If you have any questions feel free to contact any of our committee by email or whatsapp.
