Trail Running Weaverham

Trail Running

Trail running is an enjoyable type of running. Locally near Weaverham there are canals, rivers and the Sandstone Trail and masses of paths you can walk, run or cycle, traffic free and great for fitness, (although trail trainers are a must for runners). It is also great to travel to locations throughout the country like Snowdon, Wales, Pennines or the Lake District to find some great routes that will really challenge you. An activity that many of the members like to undertake frequently.

Like every club there are a few of us who run off road, try it its fun.

Delamere / Sandstone Trail to Beeston October 2009
The Sandstone trail runs from Whitchurch to Frodsham, where ever you join it it`s well worth it with good hills, plenty of muddy fields and plenty of gates and cows, a very hard run, if you want a good hard run, run it from Frodsham to Beeston about 17 miles, a tough route as Dave and myself found out Jan 2010.
