Last weekend, we attended England Athletics Volunteer Awards for the South East Region and we very proudly accepted the 3rd place award for Club of the Year 🏆

As Chairman, I could not be prouder of our club’s recent achievement in securing third place in the England Athletics regional awards for Club of the year. This recognition celebrates not only our high athletes and vibrant community spirit, but also the real difference we make beyond the finish line — through our annual half marathon, which raises thousands of pounds for charity each year, and our defibrillator scheme that has already placed many public-access units across the local community with plans for more. This award belongs to every member, volunteer and supporter who helps make our club such a force for good. 💛

Gosport Road Runners is an England Athletics affiliated club with qualified coaches & run leaders.
We compete in the Hampshire Road Race League and Southern Cross Country League.
We have members running 5 minute miles through to 15 minute miles - they are all awesome!
We support each other on long training runs. We all celebrate when someone hits a PB! We offer support & encouragement when someone is struggling.
We run together, improve together & support each other.
On Saturday we travelled to Eastleigh for some parkrun tourism & celebrated the 250th parkrun for our Head Coach and Sunday we had a social run around Portchester, followed by breakfast.
So competing or social running, joining a running club is a perfect way to do either or both.
If you’ve been thinking about joining but not sure, come along on a Tuesday or Thursday, just before 7pm and see how you get on, what have you got to lose? We are currently meeting at Kingfisher Caravan Park, parking & toilets onsite 💛

Not only have Gosport Road Runners donated over £20,000 to local charities and good causes this year, we have also purchased & installed two public access defibrillators. One on the toilet block at Monks Hill Carpark and another on the Wheelhouse in Salterns Road carpark.
Many thanks to Gosport and Lee on Solent Community First Responders for kindly providing club members with CPR & Defib training, which was very helpful and informative.
Fingers crossed we never need to put that training into practice 💛
