Read on to find out what the future of the club looks like… The next steps for London City Runners It’s been almost two years since the clubhouse opened, and until March this year, it was gaining momentum with every passing month.

    THE CITY RUNNERS STORY: HOME SWEET HOME

    This is the third in the series of blogs about the history of London City Runners, written by the club’s founder, Tim Navin-Jones. Here, he describes how LCR found its forever home. ENTERING THE UNKNOWN As our club has grown, it has been moved on for one reason or another no less than 8 times. It clearly started to follow a cycle that was not sustainable, so Kerry and I realised we had to go big or go home. To do this we had to enter a whole new world we knew NOTHING about. W

    THE CITY RUNNERS STORY: A CLUB IS BORN

    This is the second in a series of blogs written by London City Runner’s founder, Tim Navin-Jones, about the history of the club. In this instalment, he describes how LCR grew from an idea into one of the biggest running clubs in London… THE START When I moved to Bermondsey from Leeds, my brother, who I’d run with since I was small, took me for a run on the incredible route over Tower Bridge then back over Millenium. It’s hard not to be impressed on this run as through the swe

    THE CITY RUNNERS STORY: ORIGINS

    The following is the first in a series of blogs written by LCR’s founder, Tim Navin-Jones about the history of the club. Below is the story of how Tim found his love for running. With everyone spending more time at home than normal, Kerry and I thought we’d take the opportunity to tell you the story of how our running community has grown organically into something special. This blog will be a four part story – the first one will be a bit about me and how I got into running, t

    RACE RECAP: BERLIN HALF MARATHON

    Are you still allowed to post a race recap a month after the event?! London Marathon article prep (and life) got in the way of the Berlin Half recap…oops! The race took place on 8 April 2018. After what felt like weeks of absolutely gray, rainy, miserable London weather, it was nothing short of a miracle to step off the plane on Friday into a sunny and warm Berlin. We were all immediately singing our praises to Leo, our resident Berliner, who had convinced us to sign up for t

    THE BEAST FROM THE EAST

    Absolutely magical. That’s the only possible way to describe London when it’s covered in a blanket of fresh, white snow. As a southern Californian, I love everything about the snow. As much as Brits like to grumble about the imminent train delays, I couldn’t care less! All my life, I’ve had to drive to find snow, so the idea of waking up to an unspoiled blanket of it enchants me. So this morning, when I eagerly flung back my curtains at 6:30 am to see if the “beast from the e

    WELCOME TO THE LONDON CITY RUNNER’S BLOG!

    Ladies and gentlemen, we’re very excited to announce our next development: Our club’s very own blog! Our club is 8 years old this year.

Over 8000 people have registered with the club since that first session, and these days we regularly attract over 100 runners to our sessions each week. Along the way there have been 9 marriages and countless friendships. We believe running clubs sho
