Clubs: SMARTT Running Club: Information

Why you should join a running club


Affiliation - Smartt Running Club is affiliated to Wiltshire and South of England Athletics Association. Members, therefore, do not have to pay the non affiliated entry fee levy to enter races organised under the rules of UK Athletics and are covered by their insurance. Affiliation fees support the development of the sport locally and nationally.

Association  - We are a friendly bunch, mostly normal, and although most of us would like to be fitter and  faster (and younger) there is no pressure.  We organise our training runs so that nobody is left behind. We get together for social events and races.

Adhesion - The hardest part of running for fitness is sticking to a training programme.  Belonging to a running club might just give you the motivation you need to achieve your aims.  If you live in or near Calne then you will find a warm welcome at our training sessions where you can meet us and find out more about membership.
