Black Combe Runners

We are a small friendly running club based mainly in the Millom, Ulverston and Broughton areas of South Cumbria. Our members participate in fell running and road running and new runners are always welcome to join our social runs on Tuesday evenings.

The Combe has many venerable traditions, and one of them is that this picture shall appear on the front page of the site to attract new members. Click on Dave's hot pink outfit for more pictures.

We organise a few fell races:

and help out with the Duddon Valley Races in late May.

In the winter, to help with winter training, a winter training league is organised where club members take part in a series of road, fell and cross country events on a handicapped basis.

In the summer there is a series of club Fell and Road races that runners can take part in. A summer challenge is also organised for members: this year we're running a variation on Joss's lakes, meres and tarns route to finish at a big barbecue by Coniston water.

Once this site is definitely working, I’ll bring up the new forum too. For now, the old forum is still the place to go for work-avoidance and gossiping purposes. All the messages and accounts will be moved across to the new one.
