About Carleton Running Community
Carleton Running Community brings runners together in Pontefract, West Yorkshire, England. Its base is The Carleton pub on Hardwick Road, where the group gathers before its Tuesday and Thursday runs. Coaches Chris Whawell and Rich Lord are also the club’s co-founders, and run leaders support groups at different paces.
Tuesday evenings offer a choice of 5km or five miles, with the longer route extended to 10km on the first Tuesday of each month. Thursdays combine an out-and-back run with a coached alternative covering subjects such as hills, intervals and pacing. Routes and bookings are shared through the club’s Stack Team App.
Club life reaches beyond the twice-weekly sessions. Members organise monthly parkrun trips, race outings, social evenings and events including a summer running festival. Newcomers can try the group for three weeks before deciding whether to join; the membership page provides an enquiry form and explains England Athletics affiliation.
