Walkers2Runners We are a friendly social running group led by CiRF Rachel Fagg. All ages and abilities welcome!

Walkers2Runners is a small, friendly group in the Hawkhurst area for women and men who want to improve their fitness whilst meeting others and having fun. Do as little or as much as you wish to develop your fitness, starting slowly and building up at your own pace.

Happy Birthday to us!! 🥳💜 We celebrated our 10th anniversary (well 10 years and one month!) yesterday at The Hawkhurst Club and in true walkers2runners style we partied!! Back in 2016 there were more sessions than members (if that’s possible 🤔), now we number 70+ and run (!) 7 sessions a week!
For those who made it last night we danced non-stop to the fabulous Sarah G and The Other 3 (the Best Party Band ever!), fuelled up on yummy scotch eggs and quiche from Cranbrook Farm Shop & Nursery and kept hydrated on Prosecco!
A wonderful evening and huge thanks to our wonderful Run Leaders Lena Cunha Melissa Earle Steve Gasson and Beverley for their unending support, to all the W2R gang for their generosity and commitment… and to Lou at Two Chicks Gift Shop for the amazing balloons! Here’s to the next 10 years! 💜

Vitality London 10,000 … we love you! Another wonderful day out: we ran, we danced, we laughed, we picnicked and proseccoed… we celebrated us and all the other amazing runners out there today! Thank you! 💜🩷🏅

Not running… but curling! We swapped our trainers for grippy-shoes, our shorts for leggings… but we clocked up a fair few steps, made good use of lunges and did some vigorous brushing when we spent a jolly couple of hours at Tunbridge Wells Curling Club this afternoon!🥌
Our very patient coach took us through the rudiments of the sport and we played 5 ends, resulting (rather conveniently) in a draw. 🥌
It was fab fun and we were super-impressed by what lies within a large but unprepossessing barn down a lane off the A21!! 🥌

We had a great time at the Hospice in the Weald 5&10km this morning. A challenging course (we’re not afraid of hills but… 😳💪), loads of support and a fabulous finish-line atmosphere! Brilliantly organised by the Hospice team and Nice Work; we will be back (once our legs have recovered!!).
And on Friday we celebrated our Birthday Queen, Gina with flapjacks and flowers after a fab session on Marshall’s Lake. Another wonderful weekend!! 💜

Celebrating marvellous milestones!! Congratulations to ‘the Friday boys’: Kevin and Steve! Kevin joined us last July and hit his Big 100 in just over a year - great commitment!
Super Steve has been with us since 2019 and has now clocked his 700th session plus a plethora of 10kms, 10milers, HM and the leg-and-lung-busting Rye Ancient trails (coming up again this weekend… though he’s bowing out this year!) organised by our friends at Nice Work What a CV! And he had never run before signing up to our beginners’ course!
The rain came down on Tuesday but that did not stop our stalwarts of the ‘Tuesday Gang’ lacing up their trainers for a soggy 5km! And all smiles from amazing Anna as she hit her century! Fabulous to have her running regularly having navigated knee injuries and work and family commitments… oh and the small incident involving a candle at Christmas!! Well done lovely lady!

Start your own running journey with us on Thursday 10th September, 6.30pm at the KGV sportsfield, Hawkhurst, as we begin with the Beginners’ Zero-to-30 10 week course! Take that first step - you won’t look back!!

Hurrah for our ‘graduate’! Lovely Amy battled through the long hot summer and was rewarded with a cool day to complete her 30mins-non-stop and become a ‘Zero-to-30 Finisher!’ Well done Amy and welcome to the Tuesday gang!
Congratulations too to Tim who ran the Eton Dorney 10km on Sunday!
Let the Autumn Race calendar commence…!! 💪👏

A Fun Run like no other! It was an honour and a privilege to be part of the CSC/MND Charity Fun Run today! We joined over 680 others and the rugby and ultra-marathon fundraising legend Sir Kevin Sinfield in a huge community effort to raise funds for MND Association. Together we ran, marshalled, handed out water and helped organise an event which brought together the running and rugby communities! What a fabulous event -
And it rained!!!! 🥳💦💪

We had a great run this morning in Ticehurst on an undulating ‘lollipop’ down to Bewl, organised by the fab team at 1066 Trail Races. We all managed to keep going on the hills and Frances took home the prize for First Lady!
Last week our super parkrun UK tourist Kay travelled north to Fountains Abbey, and met Vicky, a former W2R member and fellow ticker-offer of parkruns around the UK. We love the parkrun community! 🧡
