Run club in Tavistock
Tavistock AC is a community athletics club formed in 1985 with over 300 junior and senior members, based at the athletics track at Tavistock College in Devon. The senior section caters for all abilities, from complete non-runners to experienced athletes, across seven coached training groups. Sessions use the 400m track, local roads and Dartmoor, and the Tuesday evening session is described as the main club night and the best introduction to the club.
