FAQs

Who are you?

The club is run by Gray & Amy Hill. We started it to help runners in Cardiff meet and train together. As the club has grown, we‘ve enlisted the help of our experienced and knowledgeable Run Leaders, Faye, Richard, Mark and Lyndsey.

Is there a membership fee?

No, all Chargers activities are free.

Where and when do you meet?

Our main weekly session is Monday nights at 7pm. We meet at Café Castan in Llandaff Fields. More info can be found on our location page.

Do I need to come every week?

You can come as often as you like! That can be every week or just whenever you can.

I’m not very fast. Can I still run with you?

Yes. Our sessions are designed to suit all paces and abilities. For the Monday Meetup, you should be able to run/walk for 30 minutes. If this is challenging for you, take a look at our six-week course for complete beginners, Chargers Start.

What should I wear? Do I need to bring anything?

Come in comfortable, weather-appropriate clothes suitable for exercise. It helps if you have a watch for keeping track of time but this isn’t essential. You may also want to bring a water bottle.

Are there changing rooms?

Unfortunately not. You’re welcome to leave any bags/coats in our car during the session but this is at your own risk.

Are you affiliated with UK Athletics/Welsh Athletics?

No, the club is not affilated. This allows us to keep the club free to all members.

Can my child run with you?

The club is designed for adults and is only insured for runners aged 16+. Please contact us for more information.

Where can I get a Chargers T-shirt/vest?

We offer a range of official club shirts. Please get in touch to learn more, or ask us at your next session.
