What would you say to someone thinking of joining?

You will always have someone to run with. No matter your goals, you are bound to find your tribe.

What first got you into running?

Worked from home during Covid and needed to get outdoors

What made you join Carn Runners?

Looked for a local club online, I did not know anyone.

What do you enjoy most about being part of the club?

There is always someone crazy enough to run with you, no matter what the weather brings.

Have you taken part in any races or events through the club?

Yes, I completed both the Grand Prix and MTRS series. I took some time out to focus on Ultra’s and Triathlons, but will be back.

Loved representing the club.

How has being part of Carn Runners impacted your running or life in general?

Haha, it is my life. My family knows Wednesday is club night, and it is my time.

I love running socially. It is what life is about x

Favourite local running route or session?

Nothing beats the coast path, but I also never tire of the Great Flat Lode and the diversity it brings.
