Get fitter, get faster and have fun! >> Download membership form

Whether you're 25 and want to stay fit, or 52 and still looking for faster 10K times, the TROTs can help you to achieve your personal running goals.

We are a small but thriving club based in St Clears, West Wales with around 60 members from all parts of Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion and Carmarthenshire.

The club is proud to include several Welsh international road runners, as well as many others who simply enjoy training in good company on the quiet lanes around St Clears!

Join a friendly, thriving running club!

Some club members run a couple of miles once or twice a week. While others are aiming for a marathon PB. Some take part in club training sessions every Thursday night. Others simply run for the TROTs in occassional races. Either way, membership of an established running club offers many benefits:

• Get support and advice from experienced runners
• Find the perfect training partner
• Discover new running routes
• Improve your speed, strength and stamina
• Compete in club events (Cross Country League, Castles Relay, Welsh Champs, Inter-club races)
• Make sure you are properly insured for running events
• Share travel to races (and reduced entry fees)
• Discounted running gear
• Get motivated to run that first marathon
• Become part of a winning club team
• Or just have fun getting fit!

How to join

Most new members give the club a try first at one of our Thursday night training sessions - we meet at 7 pm on the first floor of the Lesiure Centre in Station Road, St Clears.

New runners are welcome to simply turn up one Thursday everning for a chat and a quick run. Or you can contact us first using the message form on our contact page.

Or if you can't wait for next Thursday, complete and send your membership form now!

Annual membership

Welsh Athletics have recently changed the fee structure for affiliated clubs and runners. This means our standard annual membership is now £25, but this now includes running insurance (details available from Club Secretary) and automatic membership of Welsh Athletics.

The following discounts apply: Junior Membership (under 17) - £10, Social Membership - £10, Over 65 Membership - £20, Second Claim club membership - £10.

Membership fees and other income from the club are used for trophies, race organisation, insurance cover, use of the facilities at St Clears Leisure Centre, minibus hire, and support of a wide range of other club activities, such as the Castles Relay, Annual Tour, Awards Evening, etc.

The club accounts are presented in detail to club members at the AGM, which this year takes place on 1st March. All members are encouraged to participate actively in the 'running' of the club and help shape its future.
