We meet at the Bandstand in Roberts Park, Higher Coach Road, Baildon. Free parking is available nearby in the public car park with the round turning circle just before Titus Salt school on Higher Coach Road, Baildon (BD17 5RH is the nearest postcode).

Aimed at the complete beginner and those relatively new to running (but all are welcome to attend!). Sessions last for one hour (we don't run all the time!) and are based in and around Roberts Park, the canal towpath and riverbank trail. Free car parking, café and toilet facilities.

Tuesdays  7:00pm. Improve Your Running (Structured training)

Sessions last one hour and are suitable for all abilities. In winter we are on road around Baildon's quieter streets, and in summer off road taking advantage of the beautiful areas we live near. These sessions are based on interval training and quite often on hills. Once a month (the first Tuesday) we typically use the running track at the University Academy in Keighley BD20 9EB for some flat interval running. All sessions are adapted and suitable for everyone.

 

Thursdays  7:00pm.  Main club night (group running)

We typically meet at Baildon Rugby & Cricket Sports Club, Heygate Lane, off Jenny Lane, Baildon BD17 6RS, but please contact us to confirm as we sometimes travel to other places, such as our annual Grassington trip which is not to be missed!

A social night with the emphasis on enjoying running in groups - we divide into different running groups, each with a designated leader, according to ability. The separate groups regularly re-group to ensure that nobody is left behind.

In summer we generally run off-road over the moors.  In winter we keep to well-lit pavement routes (please wear high-viz clothing). Showering and changing facilities are available, free of charge, on Thursdays.

 

We are based at the Baildon Rugby & Cricket Sports Club on Heygate Lane, off Jenny Lane, Baildon, Shipley BD17 6RS. 

We meet on Thursdays at 7:00pm at the cricket pavilion for our main club run. The routes are planned so we all meet back at the sports club at approximately the same time.  Showers are available in the cricket pavilion and afterwards we unwind with a few drinks and food in the bar.

We train on Saturdays at 10:00am, meeting at the Bandstand in Roberts Park. Free parking is available nearby in the public car park with the round turning circle just before the Titus Salt school on Higher Coach Road, Baildon (BD17 5RH is the nearest postcode) - for beginners and improvers.

We also train on Tuesdays at 7:00pm, meeting at the car park on Jenny Lane. Our sessions include speed work, circuits and hill reps. On the first Tuesday of the month we do track work at University Academy Keighley BD20 6EB.

Please message info@baildonruunners.co.uk to let us know if you're interested in joining us for the first time, we will confirm the details of our next club run and assist with any queries you may have.
