The club was formed in 1998 for the purpose of giving Dartford a club dedicated to road running, and is now one of the biggest road running clubs in Kent. We currently have about 200 members of all abilities and ages. Our members regularly participate in distance events from parkruns to marathons, and the club’s training is designed to give its members the best chance of achieving their potential, in an enjoyable and supportive environment.
We hold training sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and ‘Sunday social’ runs are often organised at the weekend. The majority of our Tuesday and Thursday sessions are based on repetition and interval training, and they take place in a variety of locations around the Dartford area. This is to maximise the value of short training sessions, whilst increasing fitness and stamina.
The club also hosts its own events, which are voluntary supported by its members. We are the host club for the Joydens Wood 5k Series, which take place at the beautiful Woods on the last Wednesday of June, July and August. Throughout the year, we also have social events including evenings out, a summer BBQ and track race, and a Christmas party.
