Bringing Long distance running to the community

Mission statement:
The Guernsey Long Distance Running Club (GLDRC) is dedicated to promoting long distance/trail running while enhancing the health and wellbeing of our community and environment through the organisation of distinctive local races and events.
We aim to be a source of support, training, motivation, inclusion and camaraderie for members of all abilities.

Vision:
More People running, further and more often.
To Learn and grow through our shared experience, and to leave no runner behind

Values:
We are inclusive – Devoted runners of all ages, genders and athletic ability are welcome to join

We emphasise teamwork – We believe bonding as a club through training runs, social events and other activities leads to better personal and group results as well as long-lasting friendships

We are flexible – We recognise that everyone has time-consuming work and family obligations. The GLDRC will schedule runs to strengthen club dynamics, but recognise that even the most dedicated runners need flexibility in schedules

We all have a voice – Every club member’s opinion matters and each member has an euqal vote in club elections

We are proud advocates of Guernsey running – We will represent Guernsey with dignity, sportsmanship and a sense of dedication to community

We are eco-friendly – We are committed to minimising our environmental impact and reducing our carbon footprint

We run far – We organise events over a distance of no less than 10 Miles
