Training

We have several training groups running regularly during the week, as well as the Glastonbury River Walkers – a walking program which started in 2012. Many members take part in other sports, such as yoga, cycling or triathlon.

We provide a supportive, friendly environment that encourages each of us to achieve our personal best. In addition to organizing and supporting local events, we also cooperate with other organizations to foster and develop endurance sports in the region.
