Welcome to
Cleobury Mortimer Running Club
We are a friendly, all inclusive running club based in Cleobury Mortimer, Shropshire
Cleobury Mortimer Running Club (Run Cleobury) is a registered ‘Run England’ club and registered UK Athletics Club. We are supported by ‘England Athletics‘ and ‘Energize Shropshire’. We pride ourselves on being a fun, friendly and sociable running club with members of all ages and running backgrounds.
All abilities are welcome to come along and join in our training sessions. We promote mustering back so everyone enjoys their run, and so no one is left behind.
Sessions
We have a range of running sessions organised throughout the week.
Club training night
Every Tuesday at 19:00
We meet every Tuesday evening at 7pm in the car park outside Cleobury Mortimer Sports Hall where we split into 5 different ability groups.
These sessions are suitable for beginners as well as more experienced runners, so please turn up and we will ensure there is a group or route for everybody. Weekly sessions vary – sometimes we will do a steady run, other times we will do a speed session, hill reps or other sessions.
Whatever the plan, there will always be an option for quicker runners and one for those who are newer to running. Nobody will ever get left behind – quicker runners at the front of the group will always muster back, meaning that everybody can take it at their own pace.
All groups are led by one of our qualified coaches or run leaders.
Club Social runs
Every Thursday at 19:00
We have two ‘social runs’ on Thursday evenings at 7pm, meeting at Cleobury Mortimer Sports Hall - roughly 4 and 6 mile options.
There’s no set pace but it’s a chance for members to get together and go for a social run around Cleobury Mortimer for about an hour.
Everyone is more than welcome to join in - quicker runners at the front of the group are always happy to muster back
Club Social Run
Every Monday at 10:00 & Friday at 09:00
We have additional social runs for anyone available every Monday and Friday. Aim to start at the Cleobury Community Hub at 10am on Monday and 9am on Friday - full address is:
Cleobury Community Hub, 1 Lower St, Cleobury Mortimer, Kidderminster DY14 8BN

We also organise a range of additional activities as a club
Club Races
Throughout the year
Many of our members enjoy entering (and sometimes winning!) local races.
These range is distances from 5K through to Ultra Marathons, on road and off road.
Club Championships
Throughout the year
CMRC has a range of local Club Championship races organised throughout the year which are open to all members.
These range in distance and terrain and are a great way to socialise and enjoy a club day out with category prizes awarded at the Christmas party.
Social events
As a club we also organise several social events for members throughout the year to get together and have fun - whether it’s a Curry night, Karaoke party or just cheesy chips after a race!
Wyre Forest parkrun
Every Saturday at 09:00
Many of the runners at Cleobury Mortimer Running Club have been instrumental in setting up the local parkrun at the Wyre Forest.
