Bingham Sunday Running Club

The Sunday Vibe

Honestly, we're just here for the fresh air and the post-run coffee and bacon. Running by yourself can be a bit of a slog, so we get together to make it more of a social thing. No one's checking their watch, no one's comparing PBs (even if they're tracking them!), and we definitely aren't checking your ID at the door. It's a 0.8-1.2km lap (there's three loops to choose from!), so you can do as many as you want—there's no minimum at all. If you just fancy getting moving on a Sunday morning, you're one of us.

THE COURSE

What's the route?

We all start together from the Market Place and head down to the loop start point (about 0.5km). From there, you can choose your own adventure! We have three loops of varying distance, so you can mix and match to hit your target distance.

Approach (0.55km) +

laps

≈ 1.35km

The Approach

A gentle warm-up jog from Bingham Market Place to the start of the loops.

Small Loop

Short and sweet. Perfect for a quick lap or adding a little extra distance.

Medium Loop

The classic loop. A nice balance of distance and scenery.

Long Loop

For those wanting to stretch their legs a bit more.

Back for Breakfast

A gentle cool-down walk back to Gilt for coffee and breakfast.

No Pressure, Just Hangs

Leave the pressure at home. Sunday is our day to switch off the 'serious runner' brain (if you have one). We loop back, we wait for the back of the pack, and we talk... a lot. Whether you're doing one lap or five, it’s basically a coffee morning that happens to involve some light jogging.

🏃

All Paces Welcome

Whether you're a speedster or more of a saunterer, you'll fit right in.

☕

Post-Run Breakfast/Coffee

We always end with coffee and chats. It's the real reason we turn up.

🌧️

Always Out There

We're there every Sunday, come rain or shine. Getting a bit muddy is part of the fun.

👋

Just Turn Up

No sign-ups, no fees, no awkward intros. Just show up and say hi!

✨

Special Events

We're always up for a special event, like Christmas Day Parkruns or external runs - keep an eye on our Events page for more info.

🛝

Kids Welcome

There's a playground on site for kids to run around and play if they get bored of the adults - and Gilt does great hot chocolates and milkshakes!

🐕

Dogs Welcome

We welcome dogs on runs, but please keep them on a lead.

🍼

Prams & Strollers Welcome

We welcome prams and strollers on runs if you're up for the challenge!

Where to Find Us

We set off every Sunday at 9:00 AM from the Bingham Market Place (there'll always be some folks there a little earlier for a natter). Look for the group of friendly people in running gear (and probably some excited dogs)! Afterwards, we head to Gilt for a well-earned breakfast - but if you have to shoot off, that's fine too!
