Trent Park Running Club

Where North London meets the Green Belt

🏃 Enfield 2–3 times per week - Tuesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays & Sundays Trail Beginner-friendly Social

If trails are your thing - or you just want to start somewhere green and gentle - this is a little gem on the edge of the Green Belt, affiliated to both England Athletics and British Triathlon.

We meet Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7pm and Saturday and Sunday mornings at 9am, all from the Southgate Hockey Centre in Trent Park, EN4 - a short stroll from Oakwood station. Everything from an easy newcomer's jog to trail, road and cross country, with the woods and parkland right there.

We're run by volunteers, for the members. A genuinely welcoming way into off-road running.

Real stories of people who found their people in London.

Stephen Pryce · 11 June 2026 I couldn't remember the last time I'd made a new friend. Then I made one at 41. My friendships had quietly thinned out over a decade, and I'd stopped believing new ones were still possible at my age. A weekly board game night proved me wrong. 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. 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.
