Netley 10K 2026: Entries open — Book now →
We’re a vibrant, friendly, and inclusive running club based in and around Royal Victoria Country Park. Within the club you’ll find runners of all ages, speeds, and levels of experience — from recent Couch to 5K graduates to those training for marathons and ultras.
You’ll always find a crowd of NARs at Netley Abbey parkrun (and drinking coffee afterwards!) as well as plenty of opportunities for social running during the week. We also have strong club representation at local races — and sometimes further afield — so you’ll always have company on the start line.
The Heart of NAR
Netley Abbey Runners was founded on the idea that running together is better than running alone.
Our ethos is simple: Be Healthy. Run Safely.
Make Friends.
Running in a group makes training more enjoyable, keeps us motivated, and provides added safety — especially in the dark winter months. Most importantly, our supportive community ensures that no one is ever left behind.
Training & Sessions
From weekly social runs to structured training sessions, we provide a supportive environment for anyone looking to enjoy running, improve their fitness, and connect with a welcoming community. For those wanting to push a little further, our Speed and Conditioning sessions are a great way to build strength and performance.
Beyond Running
At NAR, running is only part of the story. We host regular social events and celebrations that bring our community together, making friendships that last far beyond the finish line.
Ready to Join?
Joining Netley Abbey Runners is easy — and open to all abilities, whether you’re taking your first steps into running or chasing your next PB.
Simply complete our application form, and a member of the committee will be in touch to guide you through the next steps.
