MKLR are a small, very friendly and sociable running club, always looking to welcome new members.
Our motto is to “Run for Fun and Fitness”.
From 15th September 2026 for the Autumn and Winter seasons, we meet every Tuesday and Thursday evenings at the carpark in Japonica Lane , Willenw3w.///shielding.bidder.apart (just across from the retirement village) ready for the session at 6.30 pm. Tuesday evenings tend to be the running sessions (5k/10k) and Thursday are the technical ones (these really help with running technique).
Please note: Tuesday 8th and Thursday 10th September 2026 will be the last 2 meetings of the Spring and Summer seasons at the canal carpark, not far from the Parks Trust building, w3w///furniture.richer.royal
The new addition to our club – a social run on Wednesday mornings – is proving to be very successful. We generally meet at Japonica Lane (see above) mornings, at 9.30 am, for a 5k’ish social run. These runs are for everyone, regardless of pace. Occasionally we will organise a social run from elsewhere in Milton Keynes, e.g. from the Bradwell Windmill, or the Woburn woods, but members will always be notified of this well in advance. We would encourage car sharing in these cases, where possible. Why don’t you come along and join us? If you are not a member yet, that’s fine, come and have a trial session!
Weekend runs of different types (i.e. trail and longer distance training) are also arranged. STOP PRESS ! Sunday morning 10k runs (with drop offs) have started again from Caldecotte Lake. (not on the lst Sunday of the month as this is when the Parks Trust runs take place).
Our members train to cover distances from 5k to marathons and ultras; the sessions, which include a variety of training techniques are led by trained affiliated coaches, who are all first aid trained. Obviously, whatever you want to achieve in running, we are here to help you.
Interested?
We have 2 types of membership: social (only) or including EA membership. Having EA membership comes with many benefits, not least obtaining discounts from organised running events. Although costs to affililate the club to England Athletics keep rising year on year, we have tried to keep the increase as low as possible.
- Social running membership £12.00
- Membership with England Athletics registration £35.00
This runs from April 1st each year. The subs payment window for April 2026 to end March 2027 is now open.
Why don’t you check us out, or send an email.
We look forward to welcoming you to our friendly club.
