MonRoss-Trailblazers Running Club

MonRoss-Trailblazers Running Club A welcoming running club for both social and competitive runners in and around Ross on Wye and Monmouth Interested?

We started when a bunch of us met up at circuit training (Mike Bennett's classes) held at Monmouth Leisure Centre on Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights at 7pm. Realising that we were all running alone, we decided to band together and form a very informal club. Running under the Trail Blazer's banner, we'll be running in events in South Wales, Herefordshire, Gloucestershire and even over the river in Avon. We try to get out for an organised run on Saturday or Sunday morning, and maintain core fitness in circuit training. Club members run everything from 10k races to marathons, though mostly 10k to half marathon. We welcome new members, and we only pay £30 a year subscription to secure our membership of the Association of Running Clubs. Drop an email to us on [email protected]

A massive congratulations to MonRoss Trailblazers' very own Emma Davies on an incredible performance at the grueling Triathlon Y Bala - Legend Triathlon!

Emma took on the ultimate test of endurance and crossed the finish line in a phenomenal time of 6:22:06, securing an outstanding 2nd place in her category!

All those hours of early-morning training across swim, bike, and run truly paid off. We are all so proud of you, Emma—another inspiring result!

🏅 Medal Monday – New Forest Marathon 🌲

A huge well done to club member Martin Turner, who completed his 6th marathon at the New Forest Marathon yesterday! 👏💚

The marathon can be a humbling distance no matter how many you’ve run or how much training you’ve done, and this one turned into a real battle for Martin. From around mile 11 he had to dig deep and grind out the remaining miles, eventually crossing the line in 4:14:24. 🔥

Not quite the race he’d hoped for, but sometimes simply getting yourself to that finish line is the achievement.

Perhaps camping in a tent with the family the night before wasn’t optimal marathon preparation either… 😂⛺️

Marathon number 6 in the bag – cracking effort, Martin! 🏅💚

🇹🇯 MonRoss members take on Tajikistan – border to border! 🏔️

A huge congratulations to Monross members Laura and Kieron, who have just completed the incredible Great Silk Run across Tajikistan. 💚

Described as an ‘unrace’, this is less about racing and more about adventure, exploration and shared experience. Travelling around 200 miles on foot over 10 days through some of the wildest and most remote landscapes of the Pamir Mountains.

Running, hiking and walking roughly a marathon a day, the journey took them through remote valleys and mountain passes, staying with local communities and wild camping along the way, before reaching Karakul near the Kyrgyzstan and China borders.

No finish positions or times here – just one seriously impressive journey across a country and what looks like an absolutely unforgettable experience.

We have loved following their adventure from afar (and the photos have given us some serious adventure envy! 😍).

What an achievement and what an adventure. Huge congratulations to you both! 🏔️💚👏

Fantastic running from the squad at the Waun Fach Fell Race!

Huge congratulations to Rich Foster for charging home to an incredible 11th place finish, and to Rich Cronin for a brilliant run to claim 19th in a fiercely competitive field.

Taking on the brutal climbs and descents of the Black Mountains is no small feat—awesome work! 🏔️🏃‍♂️💨

What a glorious sunny morning for it! ☀️ parkrun Saturday brought out fantastic energy across the board, with Trailblazers stretching their legs at local favourites and touring further afield.

A massive shoutout to Richard Cronin, who blazed his way to P1 at the Forest of Dean parkrun! 🥇🌳

It was brilliant to see so many of our members out enjoying the sunshine, with plenty of family groups and furry best friends joining in on the 5k fun. Whether you walked, jogged, ran, or volunteered, you all started the weekend the best way possible. 🏃‍♂️🐕🏃‍♀️

From the Wyedean Relay to Tajikistan...

🌍 Huge good luck to Kieron Brown & Laura Lelievre heading out today for the adventure of a lifetime!

On September 2nd, they’ll be tackling the Great Silk Run in Tajikistan—a brutal, beautiful 200-mile, 10-day journey across Central Asia. But this isn't your standard race: it's an "unrace" with no competition or finish times, just pure grit, stunning landscapes, and nomadic exploration along the historic Silk Road.

We couldn't be prouder to see our club colors represented on such an extraordinary global stage.
