Ending October by sharing some exciting news… we won some awards this month! 🏆

Our club was recognised at the England Athletics South East Volunteer Awards 2026. We’re very proud to share that two of our longstanding members, Trevor and Allie, both received awards!

Trevor for his Services to Athletics and Running in his role as club Mental Health Champion, and Allie as Unsung Hero of the Year 🥰

Our incredible Movember Project took home Runner-Up for Unsung Project of the Year, and our club also received Runner-Up for Club of the Year! 🤩

Fareham Running Club is what is is because of our amazing members and everything they do for each other, our local running community, and the charitable causes that we support. Thank you to everyone for making the club what it is! 🫶🏼

When the clocks went back this weekend, millions of women across the UK once again saw their world get smaller as the nights got darker.

Safety concerns affect where they go, when they go, who they go with and whether they can be active outdoors at all.

In fact, 72% of women in the UK change their outdoor activity routines during winter. This impacts women’s health and wellbeing and reinforces the stubborn gender activity gap which sees half a million fewer active women than men.

Fareham Running Club are holding a special event this Tuesday, as part of the This Girl Can ‘Lift the Curfew’ Campaign. We’ll be hosting a ladies-only group run to raise awareness and to support the campaign, amplifying women’s voices to make outdoor sport and physical activity safer and more inclusive for women.

If you would like to run with us and see what being part of a club is all about, please join us at 18:50 at Fareham Leisure Centre. Come ready to light up the dark in hi-viz and lights.

Please visit our website for details of our minimum running requirements, and let us know if you have any questions!
