Low expectations running club

15/06/2026

After being away this weekend enjoying an amazing 80s weekend at Butlins, I just wanted to say how much I’ve missed everyone! 🩷🎶✨

Between the neon, the music and reliving the classics, I’ve had a fantastic time, but I’ve definitely missed our incredible running community and all the laughs that come with it.

I hope you’ve all had a brilliant weekend, and I’m already looking forward to getting my trainers back on and seeing everyone at our next run. There may have been plenty of dancing this weekend, but nothing beats the miles, the chats and the friendships we’ve built together.

See you all soon – and remember, whether it’s an 80s anthem or a tough hill, we always get through it together! 🏃‍♀️💕🎵

Life has a funny way of reminding us that things happen for a reason.

This time last year, I was preparing to start intense chemotherapy. It was one of the toughest periods of my life, full of uncertainty, fear, and challenges I never expected to face.

Fast forward to today, and I’m back in the gym following a full fitness programme and probably the fittest I’ve ever been. Looking back, I’m incredibly proud of how far I’ve come.

I couldn’t have done it without the unwavering support of my family, who stood by me every step of the way. Their belief in me carried me through some very dark days.

One thing I’ve learned is that sometimes life breaks you so it can rebuild you stronger. Fitness has always been a huge part of who I am. Ever since I was a Personal Trainer in the Army, I’ve been passionate about helping people become stronger, healthier, and more confident.

Now I have the privilege of building an amazing community of like-minded people who support each other, laugh together, and grow together. What we’re creating is something really special, and I’m grateful to be part of it.

Never underestimate how much your life can change in a year. Keep going. Keep believing. Your comeback might be closer than you think. 💪❤️

“Each step tamed fear” was the theme of the night. 💙🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Tonight we conquered almost 2km into Doncaster before making an essential pit stop… which somehow involved an Irish bar and a pint of Guinness! 🍺😂

After plenty of laughs, chats, and questionable hydration choices, we bravely faced the 2km journey back. Thankfully, nobody needed the Rennie, and it was definitely a good job we all visited the toilet before setting off on the second half! 🚻🤣

What makes me most proud isn’t the distance—it’s seeing people build confidence, overcome fears, and realise they can do more than they thought possible.

Want to be part of our community? Whether you’re a complete beginner, returning after a break, or just looking for a friendly group to run and laugh with, we’d love to welcome you.

Message me for more details – we’d love more people to join us. ❤️

🏃‍♂️🌟 WHO’S COMING TO LOW EXPECTATIONS RUN CLUB TONIGHT? 🌟🏃‍♀️

We’re meeting at 7:00pm at Anchorage Park, Sprotbrough for our weekly social run!

Tonight we’ll be taking a relaxed run into town, stopping off at The Temple Bar for a drink and a chat before heading back together.

We’re expecting some new faces tonight, which is really exciting! 🎉 Because of that, if we get a bigger turnout we’ll split into two groups:

🏃 Group 1 – Approx. 13-14 min/mile pace
🏃 Group 2 – Approx. 15+ min/mile pace (or whatever pace feels comfortable)

The most important thing to remember is that everyone is welcome. Whether you’re returning to running, just starting out, or regularly clocking up the miles, there’s a place for you here.

No pressure. No judgement. Just good people, fresh air, a bit of movement, and a drink with friends afterwards. 🍻☕️

So if you’ve been thinking about coming along but weren’t sure if you’d be fast enough, this is your sign. You absolutely are.

Drop a 👍 or a comment below if you’re joining us tonight.

Can’t wait to see everyone later 👋 let’s hope this hail stops 🙈

🏃‍♂️ LOW EXPECTATIONS RUN CLUB – TUESDAY NIGHT SOCIAL RUN 🏃‍♀️

Fancy a run where nobody gets left behind, nobody wins a medal, and the biggest challenge is resisting a drink at The Temple halfway round? 🍻😅

📅 Tuesday 9th June
⏰ 7:00pm
📍 Meet at Anchorage Park, Sprotbrough

We’ll be heading out on a relaxed 5km route into town at approximately a 13-minute mile pace, with plenty of stops for catch-ups, breathers, photo opportunities, and the occasional discussion about why running seemed like a good idea when we signed up.

🍺 Halfway stop at The Temple
🏃 Approx. 5km
😊 All abilities welcome
🚶 Walkers, joggers, and social runners encouraged

Remember, we’re called Low Expectations for a reason. If you’re looking for Olympic-standard pace, this probably isn’t the run for you. If you’re looking for laughs, good company, and a mid-run refreshment stop, you’re in exactly the right place.

Comment below if you’re coming along and bring a friend – the more the merrier!

🏃‍♀️💛 LOW EXPECTATIONS RUN CLUB 💛🏃‍♀️

I was truly blown away yesterday.

Firstly, by the invitation to attend the Doncaster Celebration of Running alongside Wheatley Hills Rugby Club, but even more so by seeing our amazing group come together.

Low Expectations Run Club is growing and growing, and I couldn’t be prouder of the community we are becoming. It’s incredible to see how much everyone is improving, supporting one another, and building genuine friendships along the way.

What started as a simple idea has become a real community where everyone is welcomed, encouraged, and celebrated, regardless of pace or ability.

It was also fantastic to meet some new faces last night, so a huge hello to everyone who joined us! 👋

With that in mind, I’d love to invite both new and existing members to our next session:

💪 LOW EXPECTATIONS MILITARY STYLE CIRCUITS
📅 Sunday 7th June
⏰ 09:30am
📍 Anchorage Park, Sprotbrough
💷 Completely FREE

Expect circuits, laughs, encouragement, questionable coordination, and the usual Low Expectations atmosphere where everyone is welcome.

Whether you’ve been with us from the start or you’re thinking about coming along for the very first time, we’d love to see you there.

The only expectation is that you turn up. Everything else is a bonus. 😊

🏃‍♀️ Happy National Running Day! 🏃‍♂️

A huge shout-out to everyone in the Low Expectations Run Club and to runners everywhere today.

Whether you’re chasing a PB, jogging with friends, run-walking your first kilometre, or simply turning up when you’d rather stay in bed, every mile counts.

Running isn’t just about speed or distance – it’s about fresh air, good company, clearing your head, and proving to yourself that you can do hard things.

We’re proud to be a club where nobody gets left behind, nobody takes themselves too seriously, and everyone is welcome.

So if you’ve run today, well done. If you’re planning to run later, you’ve got this. And if you’re thinking about joining us for the first time, this is your sign!

Happy National Running Day from all of us at Low Expectations Run Club. ❤️

🏃‍♀️☕️
