Running clubs & partners
Run4It Run Club
Join us every Wednesday evening at 5:30pm, taking place at the Stirling University Athletics Track.
- What to expect
Our sessions follow structured training cycles around major marathon periods (Jan–May & Jun–Oct), with interval-based workouts, clear progression, and planned load/de-load weeks.
The runs are also suitable for people who are not preparing for an event. The structure of the runs is tailored to help a wide range of abilities, and those who are simply trying to improve their fitness.
- Who it’s for
Everyone! If you want to take the guesswork out of training and run at the right pace/effort, this is for you. Our Run Club Leaders will guide you through each session, whatever your goal or experience level.
Don't worry about being left behind. The route will be matched to the run, so that we start together and finish together.
- When can I join?
Anytime. There’s no commitment to attend a specific period or number of sessions – join whenever it suits you. Jump in at any stage of the cycle; even occasional attendance brings real benefits.
- How can I join?
Turn up and run: Simply come along — no booking required.
Stay updated: Follow us on Strava and Instagram for the latest info.
First-time running with us: Complete a waiver form before your first session. Form available via Facebook and Strava event descriptions.
