Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7.00pm, Aireville swimming pool foyer Groups of runners of differing abilities participate in runs around the Skipton area. Some of the groups participate in road running, others in off-road runs (in the summer during the lighter evenings)

The duration and speed of the runs depend on the group, but typically vary from 40 - 80 minutes / 5 - 10 miles

New runners are more than welcome

You will find the members warm and friendly, having a common aim of keeping fit as well as socialising (many members meet in the Narrow Boat pub in Skipton from about 9:00pm after the Thursday run)
