Interested in joining our friendly running club?

North Derbyshire Running Club

North Derbyshire running club was formed back in September 1985. Since then, we have continued to grow our group of runners, who meet to train and attend races together. Based in Chesterfield, our regular training sessions are predominantly run from Queen’s Park Sports Centre at 6:30pm.

Tuesdays & Thursdays are our organised training sessions, which follow a structured training schedule. The focus is to build speed, stamina, strength & endurance amongst a wide range of running abilities.

Mondays & Wednesdays are focused more towards our beginners, where we encourage runners to follow a steady set pace or ‘Couch to 5k’ programme.

We organise local races, the Bolsover 10k, Grassmoor 10k and ‘No walk in the park’ 5K race series.

We love a good social, organising different events throughout the year including a quiz, meals out, awards evening and Christmas social.

We encourage our runners to compete locally in the Derbyshire Booths league, along with our own club challenge & handicap races. Also, to have a go at national & regional XC events.

There are many other benefits to joining the club, including discounts at our local business running stores.

Our taster night for anyone wanting to try the Club is a Tuesday night (see training page for schedule). In the unlikely event that an accident was to occur, on a taster session you wouldn’t be covered by NDRC’s insurance. 

Please come try us out or feel free to get in contact for more information.
