Belgrave Harriers

A famous old club with a gentle way in

We're one of London's storied names, training in Battersea Park - but here's the clever bit: our Belgrave Run Club is a coached, sociable stepping stone into all that history.

The run club sessions are built for beginner to intermediate runners working from 5km up to marathon, with structured but friendly workouts under experienced coaches, some of them GB internationals. It stands on its own as a training group, so you can progress at your own pace.

Decide later whether you fancy full club membership. For now, just come and train.

Real stories of people who found their people in London.

Liam Carver · 17 June 2026 Burnout took me apart. A beginner running club is how I put myself back together. I pushed myself until I broke, then sat at home ashamed and flat. Learning to run slowly, with no one keeping score, taught me that showing up gently beats winning. Bridget Lawson · 18 June 2026 I look after my mum full time. A Saturday walk is the one hour that's mine. Caring for someone you love can quietly erase you. This is about the morning I started walking with a group of strangers, and how one hour a week gave me back to myself. Margaret Ellison · 5 June 2026 At 68, I thought my world had got smaller. A walking group proved me wrong. After I retired and lost my husband, the house went quiet and the days got long. Then a Saturday walking group gave me back something I thought was gone for good.
