Copy of Sheffield Futures X Run Happy RC #6

An exciting collaboration with RHRC, bringing an entry-level run club to Sheffield’s young people

Want to introduce more movement to your life but not sure where to start? Enter: Sheffield Futures’ Stompers

We’re over the moon to continue this collaboration with the wonderful Run Happy Run Club to support the launch of our youth running club.

For ages 16-25, this is a GENUINELY ACCESSIBLE running club aimed at introducing young people to social running in a pressure-free space. Set at an easy pace, with plenty of breaks and walking options, the lovely team from Run Happy (alongside a few of our own SF staff) will take you on a short loop around Sheffield city centre, starting and finishing at Star House.

NEED TO KNOW INFO:

  • This is open to all young people ages 16-25, you don’t need to have used SF services to join
  • The run briefing will happen at 6.35pm so please aim to arrive at least five minutes before
  • No booking required – just turn up!
  • Bag storage will be available at SH while you’re out on the run
  • Please bring water bottles! Drinking water is available at SH but we don’t have bottles
  • Be sensible and pay attention to the weather forecast – if it’s sunny, wear sun cream and a hat! If it decides to rain, a waterproof jacket is essential!
  • It is starting to get darker so we will have reflective bands to loan out but we also recommend wearing hi-vis, reflective or bright clothing and a headtorch if possible.
  • We have limited shower/washing facilities at SH. If you would need to access these, please speak to a member of staff in advance

If you want to have a chat with the team in advance and ask any questions or address any concerns you might have about joining, please get in touch! Email us or send us a DM on Instagram. You can also join the run club channel on our Discord server by clicking ‘Read more’ in the event info.
