A jogging group for everyone
About
Your local jogscotland group
Our fun, friendly jogging groups are perfect for people who want to get active for the first time, or more experienced runners who want to exercise in a sociable, supportive environment.
About Us
Jogging For Everyone!
It doesn’t matter if you’ve never run before; if you’ve recently had a baby; if you’re young or old; or if you think you’ll never keep up. Our Jog Leaders are specially-trained to help you reach your fitness goals while feeling safe, supported – and sociable!
Beginner sessions include a combination of gentle walking and jogging, with a gradual increase in jogging as fitness and confidence begin to build. Within 20 weeks of starting as a complete beginner, most people are able to run 5K (three miles).

Come Jog With Us!
Contact our Jog Leader using the form. You can also just turn up at the Crawfordjohn Village Hall on Wednesdays before 6:30pm and introduce yourself. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
We would be delighted to meet you.
Each session costs £1 per jogger with all money collected going to charity.
“I joined Allan’s sessions which took us from beginners level, to achieving 30 minutes of jogging by building up distance, effort and time gradually. The pace was easy and relaxed and the group was incredibly supportive with all fitness levels and age groups there from primary school children to those who left school many years before!
I really look forward to Thursday evening sessions and love seeing new faces join us and enjoy its benefits.” Cheryl
Come and give it a try…………..what have you got to lose?”
Decided I would give running a go as I liked the idea of keeping active with my children. Impressed with how far we are able to run each week. Allan’s a great leader and everyone is so friendly.
