hi there,

im currently living in Upton , in Chester, I am wondering if anyone out there goes out running around the area, I find it hard to motivate myself to get out alone so it would be cool to join someone if thats ok. 

I used to run a fair bit on road, and in the fells in the lakes, but climbing seems to have taken over and for some stupid reason I have started smoking again??

im happy to run with whoever really no matter how slow or fast (hopefully not too fast). 

thank you

Get to Chester parkrun, I’m sure you will meet some like minded people. I believe one of the regulars here is one of the Race Directors.

Rampakino I think is Chester parkrun director. Plenty of fell runners with Helsby if you fancy joining us any Wed for a 6:30 start. Most people are on the road at the moment but usually a few with headtorches on the hill. Spring we mostly switch to the trail.

Steve beat me to it for Helsby runners,  but there's also Clywdian Range Runners to get you in the hills,  and I think Chester Road Runners also exist and are pretty active.

Yes I am!

Chester parkrun is definitely a good starting point as we have a lot of regular local runners and also representatives of local clubs who come along.  Chester Road Runners are a growing group who run 2-3 times a week as well as joining in races and parkrun.  West Cheshire AC are up your way too.  There's also Chester Tri (who don't just do Triathlon), Deestriders, Helsby (Green Army!) and others slightly further afield.

The Chester running scene is very vibrant - we now have a 10k added to the portfolio of events which varies from 5k and parkrun, 5m, 10k, 1/2m, Metric Marathon, Marathon and Ultra.

I would definitely join a club! So simple to find people to run with through a club.
