Happy Valley runners are now out and about every Friday

On the run: there’s a new social running group in Coulsdon

If you were inspired by last week’s London Marathon (and with 1.1million people registering in hope of running the 2026 race, there’s a good chance that you were), then a new group called Run Talk Run Coulsdon might be just for you as you take a next step on getting out there and running.

Run Talk Run Coulsdon is free of charge.

They meet once a week, on Fridays at 6.30pm outside The Fox public house on Coulsdon Common – so there’s a good chance their meetings combine two popular social activities…

“We are a social running club, with the aim to improve both mental and physical health,” they say in welcoming new members.

“Each week we run approximately 5km – a little more than three miles – over the trails of Farthing Downs and Happy Valley.

“There is an optional opportunity to have a drink in The Fox after the run.” See, we told you…
