Welcome to South West Road Runners, one of the largest and friendliest running clubs in Devon. We were formed in 1984 primarily as a road running club, but since moving to our present location at Exeter Arena in 1992 the club has seen a broadening of its activities to include cross country, trail, and fell running.

We currently have around three hundred members including junior runners from age eight years upwards.

We pride ourselves on being as inclusive as we can be. We have trained coaches to lead track sessions, and run leaders to suit all abilities and running requirements including guide leaders for Visually Impaired (VI) runners. 

We offer a warm welcome to all, and count amongst our number a whole range of abilities, from those who want nothing more than a social jog around town, right up to county representatives and international Age Group Duathlon and Triathlon runners. 

We can also arrange ad- hoc marathon and half marathon training runs as well as progression groups for novice runners, or for those looking to build up their fitness. There really is something for everyone!

The club also currently organises three annual race events, details of which which can be found elsewhere on the website. We are also the only club in Devon and Cornwall to regularly enter a team into the prestigious Welsh Castles Relay Race..

Please contact us if you need any more information, or just come along and join us if you fancy a run.

Happy #trophytuesday A delayed race overview this week to accommodate the bank holiday. Our members do love to race and this weekend, although a little quieter on the racing front, they didn’t disappoint in terms of results! First up the Lustleigh 10k! A beautiful, fun but pretty tough 10k that is often popular with our members on the bank holiday Monday. A big well done to Lucy (2nd lady) and to our winning ladies team (Lucy, Alicia, Jeanette and Naomi) 🏆Next up a big well done to Jorge who somehow managed 2 back to back marathons 😲 He completed the Area 50 run marathon in 5:48:03, followed by 2weird2run marathon 5:08:00!
