Run club in Melbourne
Westerfoldians Inclusive Running Club is a social running club in Templestowe, Victoria, which grew out of a group of Westerfolds Park parkrun regulars. It welcomes all ages and abilities, from people starting out to runners looking for company and coaching. A typical week includes a 5km social lap of the parkrun course and a coached interval session on an athletics track.
Weekly sessions are a 5km social reverse lap of the Westerfolds parkrun course on Tuesdays (7pm, with walkers starting at 6:45pm) and a warm-up, drills and interval session on Wednesdays at the Tom Kelly Athletics Track in Doncaster, hosted by an Athletics Victoria accredited coach. All abilities are catered for and the club states no one is left behind on the Tuesday run. The club also organises handicap runs, cheer squads at events, running adventures, merchandise and social events. It is affiliated with Athletics Victoria; the annual joining fee is $45, reduced to $31.50 for Athletics Victoria members and $25 for under 18s. Prospective members can join the club's Facebook group for a couple of months as a free trial, and registration and contact details are on the club website.
