Shepparton Runners Club

Shepparton Runners Club is a community running club in Shepparton, Victoria, that aims to promote a fit, healthy lifestyle in a social and encouraging environment. It runs two coached group sessions a week catering for all types of runners and fitness levels, and members take part in fun runs and races from 5km to marathon. Newcomers are specifically encouraged, and smaller groups are catered for so all abilities can take part.

Sessions are led by club coach Chris Armstrong, who holds a Level 1 Recreational Run Leader qualification, as do a number of other members. The Tuesday session lasts an hour and is a fartlek, speed session or tempo run, held at Victoria Lake near the Shepparton Art Museum or at the Botanic Gardens in Kialla. The Thursday session is a more relaxed out-and-back easy group run from the club rooms at Princess Park, finishing at 18:45; many members also run Parkrun on Saturday mornings.
