Races
Radcliffe Atheltic Club members take part in lots of races over a variety of distances - from a mile right up to long-distance ultra runs.
Don't be put off if you've never entered a race before; they are for all abilities, great fun and a brilliant way to meet others runners. Radcliffe members are also well known for the way they encourage and support each other!
Every Radcliffe Athletic Club member is eligible to take part in our club championships and there is something for everyone: road, trail, fell and cross country races. Prizes are up for grabs in each age category.
The club also competes in local road/trail, fell and cross country leagues. All abilities can take part and this is a great opportunity earn points for the club.
But you don't need to stick to these races. There are thousands of events each year and part of the fun of the club is hearing what people are up to and being inspired by them.
We also have a proud history of organising our own races which are popular with runners from across Greater Manchester and beyond. These are only possible thanks to our members (along with their friends and family) who volunteer as marshals, car park attendants, on registration and much more. There is always a great atmosphere.
Although they are not classed as "races", each week members take part in the Saturday morning 5k parkruns. They are free, held at lots of locations, great social occasions and you can walk or run.
In addition, the Burrs Community Run at Burrs Country Park, Bury on Sunday mornings is popular with members.
