The BRAT Club believes that physical fitness is a really important part of being healthy and happy. We welcome anyone who is keen to try athletics, triathlon, or simply running and training with a club. Our training sessions are friendly, fun and will get you fitter. We offer something for everyone, young and old, juniors and families, complete novices and experienced competitors, coaches, officials and social members. We encourage volunteers – the club is run entirely by volunteers.
