London City Runners

I am yet to be able to do this and not suffer week-long DOMs!! It’s a toughie, but get this in the bag and you can eat Easter eggs guilt free all weekend*! Keep your distance, but get outside 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏃🏻 🏃🏻‍♂️ 🐣 #londoncityrunners #london #running #runner #intervaltraining #letskeepmoving *no scientific support for this claim

The inaugural LCR virtual pub quiz was a success this week! Stay tuned to our Facebook page for the next one 🥂😊👍 Great to see so many of our members also getting out and doing their runs solo this week but staying connected across the web. Keep it up! 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️🙂 #LCRvirtual #londoncityrunners #virtualrunningclub #pubquiz #virtualhugs #runningcommunity

Who is April fool’s enough to do intervals today?! It’s short, so challenge yourself on your pace and you wouldn’t want it any longer! Can be done based on distance or time. Make the most of the longer evenings 🏃🏻‍♀️ 🏃🏻‍♂️☀️ #london #running #run #spring #intervaltraining #coronavirus #aprilfools #londoncityrunners #letskeepmoving

Our #couchto5k graduation was meant to take place at the weekend. Our graduates still took part in their own final 5km runs though from a distance. Well done to all who completed the course. Keep up the good work and we'll arrange an in-person celebration run when we're back 😊👍🥂 #londoncityrunners #keeponrunning #LCRvirtual #mostactivecity

Following yesterday's advice from the government we're cancelling all our running sessions for now due to #covid19. In 10 years this is the first time we've had to cancel our weekly sessions, but fear not we'll be back as soon as we can and stronger than ever 👍
As a small business we're fortunate to have our own community thats already rallying to support us. If you'd like to help support the club through this period please check out https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-london ...-city-runners-your… ❤
While our sessions aren't running there are still ways to stay connected and take part in the club. We'll be organising some virtual runs and challenges for our members, and reaching out to our nearest community groups to see how our runners can help other groups and the residents around us.
Wishing all our members, friends, and fellow clubs and businesses the best at this time 💙💛💙

We’ve had quite a few people asking about our club’s position on the Corona virus outbreak.
Our current position is that we’re not shutting the clubhouse or cancelling any runs or events at this time. This is in line with what other venues our size all over London are doing, and in line with advice from Public Health England and the NHS. We’ll monitor the situation closely every day and operate in line with government advice to look for ways to minimise the risk for people at... the club. We also ask all our members and visitors to do their duty to make sure they don’t spread the virus
We are still planning some amazing events this year, and will continue to sell tickets to our events and couch-to-5k. All of these are fully refundable so if you decide not to come or the events have to be cancelled or postponed all money will be returned.
Finally, please don't worry and be reassured that our running club has survived a lot of dramas over the last 10 years to keep going but thanks to our incredible community of volunteers and our unique business model we believe our business is more resilient than most. If the worst comes to the worst and genuinely qualified experts advise us to modify our activities or shut for a while, we’re sure we will all work together to keep the club in business 🙏💙💛💙
