“This is an absolutely wonderful club. I had wanted to run for years but was scared I would be too slow. A friend convinced me to try RLJ and I’m eternally grateful. They are the most encouraging, inclusive, friendly bunch. Lots of runs, mixed routes and pace for all ability levels with excellent coaching on every run. The best thing I’ve done in years.

RLJ.....where to begin? A wonderful community lead by the most inspirational ladies. I never thought I’d be a runner but I find myself out running and I have to pinch myself as sometimes I still cannot believe it.
