Membership Options
WRC Membership (Non England Athletics Affiliated) - £10
When you join Wadebridge Running Club, you’ll have access to up to 4 organised runs each week, catering to all abilities and experience levels. Sessions are led by fully qualified, DBS-checked run leaders who carry first aid and emergency equipment, ensuring both a safe and supportive environment. Members also benefit from structured training, including a weekly coached interval session, designed to improve fitness, strength, and confidence. With dedicated Welfare Officers in place, your safety and wellbeing are always a priority.
Beyond training, Wadebridge Running Club offers a welcoming and inclusive community where runners motivate and encourage one another. You’ll receive ongoing help and advice to support your progress, along with opportunities to explore new routes that keep every run varied, enjoyable, and inspiring.
WRC Membership + England Athletics Affiliation - £33
Becoming an affiliated athlete through Wadebridge Running Club offers a range of valuable benefits for runners who train and compete regularly. As an England Athletics affiliated club, members can register as affiliated athletes and receive public liability insurance cover during official club activities and licensed events, providing added peace of mind. Affiliated runners also benefit from a £2 discount on most UK licensed road and trail races, which can quickly offset the annual registration fee if you race throughout the year. In addition, your results are officially recorded and contribute to national rankings and performance databases such as Power of 10.
Affiliation also provides eligibility to compete in county, regional, and national championship events that are only open to registered athletes. In addition, affiliated runners can access exclusive discounts and special offers on running shoes, kit, and related products through England Athletics partners. As part of a club that meets recognised national standards in coaching, safeguarding, and welfare, you can train and compete with confidence. For runners looking to measure progress, access competitive opportunities, and enjoy added perks both on and off the race course, becoming an affiliated athlete through Wadebridge Running Club adds real value to your running journey.
Once Wadebridge Running Club reaches 40 first-claim members, the club becomes eligible for a guaranteed club ballot place for the London Marathon. This would give members a second chance to secure a place on the London start line, with the allocated entry drawn at random from those who enter the club ballot. Eligibility rules apply.
