Did you come for last week’s one year birthday party for our little run we started as ‘Young/ Young at Heart’ (YaH)? We hope you got some cake - see the photos below!
We set up this weekly Thursday 30 minute run from Bike Bar a year ago for students and other younger community around to meet up, come for a run and maybe stop for a drink after without no speed or distance requirements, and we’ve been meeting at 5:30pm every week since.
And we want to move into Summer 2026 (it’s coming, I’m calling it early!) with an updated name of TNS - Thursday Night Social but the same aims we set out above for the same bunch of young people we know are around town, itching to come for a run with us!
If you haven’t yet come to a Thursday night run, this is the perfect time - please reach out to @kcmccormick8 or me if you have any questions about coming for the first time, it is always lovely to have new folks attend their first FLRC run! And if you’ve come before, bring a friend!
We typically set off running at 5:45pm, go in differing pace groups for around 30ish minutes, before returning to the bar afterwards - you can decide with the people running with you where you want to go, and how far too. And how long you want to stay after!
Whether it’s hot, cold, rainy or dry, just keep checking and adjust accordingly - we’ll still be running (and stopping for a drink/ chat after), no matter what. If it’s dark (late October - early March), bring your reflective gear and/or headlamps and ditch your dark clothing!
Everyone is welcome, regardless of ability, pace, or anything else.
This is a free activity and club membership is not required, but please sign the waivers before your first run this year. You only need to sign the waiver once for all 2026 group runs, so if you’ve already signed it, you’re all set if you want to get involved in anything else.
