The Spirit of Monmouth Running Club was formed on 2nd September 2008 when approximately 40 people attended a meeting at The Monmouth School Sports Centre. 

The guiding ethos for the new club was inclusivity – with the intention of building a club that could meet the needs of the full range of runners, from beginners through to fast or experienced runners. 

Awareness of the new running club grew rapidly through September and October, reaching approximately 50 members by the end of October. Since then we have grown to around 70 members.
The club would like to thank Trevor Kingdon of Black Sheep Sports for providing our Tuesday night speed training sessions.
