Who we are

Started by seven runners in 2013. Now seventy-five strong.

Desborough & Rothwell Running Club was started in October 2013 by a group of 7 enthusiastic runners, who wanted to provide a running group for the local area, as it’s generally acknowledged that it’s always better to run in a group to get the most out of your running experience.

Our membership is ready to help with advice in all aspects of running, whether you are making the leap from the couch to 5K or aiming to complete a 10K, Half Marathon, Marathon or even an Ultra Marathon.

We enter events as individual runners and as part of club teams, both on and off-road, from local parkrun’s to some of the best known races across the UK.

Thu 7:00 PM group runsOrganised into groups according to pace — options for everyone of every ability.
