Wessex Road Runners is a small and friendly running club that genuinely welcomes runners of all levels.
Every Monday we meet in Winchester (usually near a pub!) for a sociable 4-6 mile run at a pace of around 10 minutes per mile. But if that sounds a bit too fast, please don’t be put off, we are happy to run slower. Afterwards, we tend to stick around for a recovery pint and chat.
Joining our club also allows you to take part in the competitive CC6 and RR10 race series organised by and for the South Hampshire running clubs (including Wessex). These are optional, but if you enjoy running competitively these are great, free of charge events.
The club is a great place to meet and run safely with others, improve your general running fitness or to prepare with others for your own events and running ambitions.

RR10 2026 #5 – Return to Itchen Valley
After a big gap between fixtures, the RR10 returned at last with the second trip to Itchen Valley Country park of the season. Two unavoidable cancellations meant everyone was more than ready to get back to some running (and cake). The alternative route this time round featured three visits to the short, sharp hill section…
