Welcome to the website of the Taf Running & Orienteering Team (TROTs), based in St Clears, South West Wales. The club competes in road, multi-terrain and cross country races across West Wales, the UK and around the world.
TROTs running club was formed in October 1986, with some of the founding members still being involved in the club today.
We have particularly strong veterans and ladies teams, including Welsh internationals and champions at distances from 5k to the Marathon. However, the club includes runners of all abilities, so there is always someone to train with at a speed and distance to suit you :-)
On the site, you will find an events diary and results of recent races, as well as news and links to local running clubs and other relevant websites.
TROTs offer various sessions from Welsh Athletics qualified running coaches and run leaders. These sessions are are open to all members, as well as anyone who would like to come along - whether that be people that are just starting out on their running journey, to more experienced runners looking to improve technique and efficiency. No matter what your ability we have a training night suited to your needs.
