Mornings runs are held on a Tuesday & Thursday at 7am and Saturday at 9am. The Tuesday morning meeting point alternates between Chessington North Parade and Churchfields depending on the time of year. on Thursday mornings we meet at the North Start pub & Saturdays we meet at Churchfields.

Evenings runs are held on a Monday and Thursday at 7pm. On a Monday we meet at Horton Golf Course and a Thursday at the North Star Pub.

we also hold strength and speed sessions on a Tuesday & Wednesday evenings, see below for more details.

What is the ‘CURL’?

Chessington Unity Running League, a selection of races (see our CURL event page) where just entering will earn you points. You will earn more points if you achieve personal bests (speed or distance) and if you are the first CURC across the finish line. The male and female with the highest points each receive a trophy at the awards night. The 2nd and 3rd places get a coaster. If you complete 5 races in a season you are eligible to be entered into the club ballot for the London Marathon. 

What is the ‘HandiCURC’? 

A monthly competition on the first Tuesday of each month where you race yourself (and others). The slowest runners leave first and faster runners last with the aim that everyone finishes at the same time. You get points for crossing the line and then 10-points if you cross first (5-points if it’s your first ever HandiCURC) down to 1-point if you are 10th across the line. More points are awarded for seasonal and personal bests. You can join for all events or just one, but it’s no fun if you join none!

What is ‘NUBS’?

A free speed session for all abilities, held on the second and fourth Tuesday to improve speed and stamina. This is a really fun session for all abilities and will help you get to the top of the HandiCURC leader board. Ask for Kev or look out for the Return of the NUBS Facebook page to see the location as it can change on occasions. What does NUBS actually mean? You have to turn up to find out!

What is Track?

We meet third Wednesday of every month at the Harrier Centre in Ewell. It costs £3.10 to enter and then you will be led in a session to help improve speed and stamina. All abilities welcome. 

What is ‘GIGS’?

A free core strength training session for runners. Sessions are face-to-face every Wednesday at Buckland School from 6pm or on Zoom throughout the week. Contact Bev for more details.
