Richmond Run Club

Towpath miles, then a riverside pint

🏃 Richmond upon Thames Weekly Social Beginner-friendly

One of Richmond's most-loved social clubs, with distances to suit everyone and - crucially - a riverside pub waiting at the finish.

Take your pick of 5k, 8k or 10k, all winding up near the White Cross, a Grade II listed Young's pub on Water Lane, TW9. All levels, pace groups for everyone, post-run drinks (members get a discount at the pub, naturally).

A brilliant way to explore the Thames towpath in good company. Check the Instagram for the next run.

Real stories of people who found their people in London.

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. Rachel Okafor · 15 June 2026 I was someone's mum from 6am to midnight. A book club gave me back two hours that were mine. After my son was born I disappeared into being his mother. The thing that brought me back wasn't a spa day or a grand gesture. It was a paperback and a room full of women. 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.
