About Paul Popham Running Club
Paul Popham Running Club was founded in Swansea, Wales, in February 2016. Its original aim was to help people progress from starting running to completing 5K through an eight-week Learn 2 Run programme, followed by a Swansea Bay parkrun. The club marked its tenth anniversary in 2026.
Swansea remains its flagship base, with Haverfordwest now offering another local programme. Beginner membership supports the Learn 2 Run pathway; full membership is aimed at runners able to cover 5K continuously and includes leader-led and coached groups. The emphasis is on individual progress, social support and finding a suitable group rather than keeping up with one fixed pace.
The club also organises Wear Wally in support of Popham Kidney Support. New members can choose the Swansea or Haverfordwest joining route and ask about current sessions through the contact form or published telephone number. Its business-village contact address should not be mistaken for the start of every run.
Established 2016
