LOCKDOWN UPDATE: Adult Run groups have restarted on Tuesday and Thursday. Juniors training on Tuesday has resumed - prebooked only. All in line with govt and EA guidelines. Conditioning and bike groups remain virtual.
I did send about an email about joining, can’t make next week, but the following week i’ll pop up, how do I book or shall I just turn up at the club house?
Horsham District Council Health & Wellbeing Team and Steyning A.C. are joining forces to bring Walk-Fit and Learn-To-Run groups to Steyning in September.
Both groups are free, and for beginners.
Walk-Fit: Tuesdays at 6pm. Starting 22nd September.
Learn-To-Run: Mondays at 6pm. Starting 21st September.
Both groups will see qualified leaders take you on a progressive but achievable 10 week programme that will benefit your physical health and mental wellbeing.
Massage doesn’t have to be expensive £££ Coming soon @ Cobblestone Walk Unit P, Knowledge of Life will be offering therapeutic massages. With over 20 years experience, fully qualified and insuranced, there is nothing we don’t know about massage 💆♀️
Hopefully we now have all of our Romp runners on the leaderboard, and in something like the right order.
Big congratulations to John (Henfield Joggers) and Jo (Steyning AC) for posting the fastest Mens and Ladies times, and thank you to all for taking part.
Happy running. We’ll see you out there again soon. ... See MoreSee Less

Where would my 43:23 from 7/7 have got me if I’d sent it across?
The virtual Mini-Romp runs have begun! Let's get every junior up to the cricket field when they are free one evening from the 1st up to the 7th July. A coach will be there between 6.30 and 8p.m. to help time your run. Come along and get a time in, and get a medal! Medals will be given out on 8th July at 6pm outside the clubhouse. Those taking part must be aged between 7 and 14. ... See MoreSee Less
Open to junior members of Steyning AC, and non-members in the Steyning community aged between 7 and 14.
Course must be run and timed between 1st - 7th July. Results must be sent in by putting your results: name, age and time in the comments below.
The course shown on the attached map is Steyning Memorial (cricket) field. A junior coach will be available on the field to help with timing and course info (socially distanced!) every evening 1st - 7th July between 6.30 - 8.00PM.
See comments section for the unofficial Roundhill Romp 2020 route map.
This is not the usual Roundhill Romp: There is a slight change to the route around Wiston House; there will be no marshalls or First Aiders; there will be no BBQ!
It is simply an invite to local runners to complete the route over the course of the week 1st to 7th July, and send us their times via the comments below to get onto the virtual leaderboard.
Please abide by Government and England Athletics guidelines: maximum group size of 6, minimum distance between runners of 2 meters. Remember to let someone know where you are going, and when they should expect you back. Finally, there are steep downhill sections, so take care. ... See MoreSee Less
Route for the 2020 virtual event. There will be limited waymarkers on the course, so you will need this map. Good luck, and have fun!
This map is the section that deviates from the usual Romp route.
You leave Mouse Lane on a footpath to the left (after the ‘Dangerous Bends’ sign). If you continued on the road you’d get to a closed gate before reaching Wiston House.
Once you’ve left Mouse Lane. Turn right in the field and follow the path around the edge. You’ll see another footpath sign that will take you through the small woods. Exit those woods over a style.
Then follow the path across the next small field, over a second style, and you’re on your way heading along past Wiston House.
Roundhill Romp course done by 3 Arunners members (Tim Critchfield Ian Puttock and Mark Cheeseman. Timed at 56mins 22 secs (Details attached). Thanks for arranging this virtual event - it was great
Wow! So many fab runners and photos!! 👍🏻👍🏻
