About Rebel Runners Medway
Rebel Runners Medway began in January 2014 when friends Johanna Bridge, Jenny Baldock and Darren Bridge formed a social running group through Facebook. It subsequently became a Run England group and then a UK Athletics-affiliated club. Based in the Medway area of Kent, England, it aims to make running accessible to adults with a wide range of experience.
Volunteer running leaders take the regular Monday and Thursday team runs, while coached Wednesday track sessions use Medway Park in Gillingham. Routes are assessed in advance, and the club describes its leaders' training in helping people overcome different barriers to participation. Beginner Couch to 5K programmes are offered separately rather than being the same as an ordinary team run.
Prospective members can ask the membership secretary about the advertised month's trial and which session suits them. Check the current timetable and beginner-course availability before attending. General enquiries have a separate club email. Training, volunteering and social life all contribute to the community that developed from those first informal online arrangements.
