Activities

Yearly event

Once a year we organise a big event, something that should appeal to everyone!
This is usually on a Sunday morning, with 2 activities: one for children under 12y, and one for teenagers and adults.

Events organised with other clubs

From time to time, the running club teams up with other prestigious Swift clubs such as the Triathlon Team and the Outdoor Venture Club, to organise special events. The annual Run and Bike event is a very popular .

Points (Members only)

You gain points for the runs you do with us. If you get lots of points, you could win a prize. Full details of the points system are given here. The 3 best runners of the last year are rewarded during the AGM

Refunds (Members only)

We will refund the entry cost of your races. All you need to do is send us proof you finished the race, details of the cost of the race, the number of your bank account and a short description of the race containing: details of the terrain, the number of participants, what you thought of the race and whether you would run it again. This description will make you famous, as it will be published on the site and very useful to help members choose their events.

The detailed Refund Policy can be found here.

Annual general meeting (Members only)

Once a year, we have an AGM. That is the time to voice your opinion, so don't miss the opportunity. We will also distribute the prizes for the members with the most points and acknowledge the achievements of our members through the year.

Cooper Test

Once a year, the club organize a cooper test. The objective of the Cooper test is to run as far as possible within 12 minutes.

The test is meant to measure the physical condition of the person taking it and therefore it is supposed to be run at a steady pace instead of intervals/sprints running.

The outcome is based on the distance the test person ran, age and sex.

Running shoes fitting

Once a year, the club promotes the procurement of new running shoes, to avoid any injuries due to old shoes. The club helps with discount and fitting session.

Share a run

You can invite one guest to run together with you on an external race, selected by the club on a yearly basis.
