About Candy Racing
Candy Racing was founded in 2018 in Hackney, London, England, for committed amateur runners seeking structured marathon training alongside everyday work. Its model centres on runners following a training block together, with coaching, shared accountability and support from more experienced teammates. The club also offers remote participation, including an internationally accessible cohort advertised in 2025.
The team describes several ways to take part: spring and autumn cohorts, an elite pathway, supporting pacers known as Gregarios, and an alumni community for people who have completed a training block. Its published leadership includes head coach Andy Elks, chair Chris Akinrele and welfare officer Carrie Williams. Dale Seddon is among the runners featured in its athlete accounts and elite-pathway listing.
This is a performance-focused programme rather than an open drop-in social run. Applicants should use the club’s enquiry or waitlist route to confirm the next start date, training commitment and eligibility. The website carries differing qualification and affiliation wording between pages, so current terms should be checked directly before joining.
