The club began in 2007, in response to a demand from local people who were looking to train for the Aviemore Highland Half Marathon. Since then, the club has been going from strength to strength. We are a friendly club that welcomes runners of all abilities - from absolute beginners to elite runners.
Club runs are held on Monday and Wednesday evenings, 6:30pm. The season starts in Spring and continues until it gets too dark!. There are also a number of casual runs, events and training sessions throughout the year.
A favourite format amongst some of the clubs more unhinged members, this year Colin Cadden took part in a weather impacted Glenmore 24 race. Will he be back? You can find out in our newest event report!
Billed as "A Wild Half Marathon Trail Run to the base of Scotland's most iconic mountain, the mighty Suilven," it was a race I couldn't miss out on. Assynt is one of my favourite places in the country and the opportunity to participate in an inaugural race there was too good to pass up.
Back in August 2021, Calum Maclean and Jenny Graham took on the longest straight-line hike not crossing a road in the UK, in 2025 Cairngorm Runners Jonathan and Sam Bellarby gave a different route a try!
Monday Runs - There are 4 sessions every Monday at 1830: beginners, intermediates 1, intermediates 2 and adventure. The exact plan is posted a few days for current members on our Spond page. Monday runs are social runs and last about an hour.
