Wimbledon Windmilers Running Club is London's second biggest running club and we think it's the most friendly and welcoming with over 700 members of all ages and a wide range of abilities.  Whether you're an experienced runner or you've just starting out and want to meet people of the same level then you'll be in great company for training (and socialising!).  The best place to start is our Sunday morning (see photo-story) club runs.  The club competes at all levels in a variety of races including county cross-country, club relays, marathons, triathlons and adventure racing.  Our coached training sessions are as follows: Tuesday evening (speedwork), Thursday evening (hill training), Saturday mornings (track - see photos), and Sunday mornings (3, 5, 7, 11 miles and longer).  As you'd expect when we're not running there is also a very active social side to the club.

If you would like to come and find out more then feel free to try out any of our training sessions.  If you like it then you can decide to join.  Or if you'd like to ask us any questions before you come along please drop us a note to enquiry@windmilers.org.uk and we'll get back to you asap!

Open 10K Charity Selection 2010

10K Charity Selection Invite - 2010

Dear Windmilers,
The 2009 Open 10K was a great success for runners and for the Whizz Kidz, our chosen charity. Overall we raised £3064.46 for the charity, a great donation for which the charity has been very grateful WhizzKidz Thank You.
WhizzKidz Certificate

The 2010 Open 10K will take place on Sunday 4th July. We are now opening up the selection process for this year’s charity. This email is a request to club members to make proposals for charities we could support. Proposals will be reviewed by the club committee at the next committee meeting (23rd March) and a charity or charities selected. The deadline for members to make proposals is Wednesday 18th March.

Proposals should give the name, charity registration number, address, webpage address (if one exists), a concise overview of the charity’s work and a brief justification for why the charity should benefit from the funds raised. All of this should make up no more than the equivalent of one side of A4 paper. Proposals should be sent to the Events Coordinators , events@windmilers.org.uk , copying the Club Secretary , secretary@windmilers.org.uk .

Note that when the committee reviews the proposals we will consider them against one firm requirement, that the charity is a viable, ongoing body not threatened by closure. The committee will also use the guidelines listed below to assist with making a fair decision:

  • Is the output of the charity’s work visible in the Wimbledon area?
  • If the charity were to receive a donation similar to that raised in 2009 would it make a visible impact on the charity’s work?
  • Does the charity work in a sports, mobility or health/well-being related area?


The decision made will be communicated to all after the 30th March. Minutes of the review discussion will be available on request.
If no charities are proposed by members, the committee will consider allocating the 2010 donations to WhizzKidz

WHERE IS THE BANNER?

The Windmilers have two team flags or banners which fly proudly at cross country and other events.  One is currently missing - we believe someone helpfully took it home after one of the women's cross country events.  If you know where it is please contact Richard and Jess on womenscaptain@windmilers.org.uk 

 
Swim Sessions
On Monday 18th January we will be starting a new set of 10 swim sessions at Wimbledon College. We have two sets, 7:15pm for the 'slower' group and 8:15pm for the medium to fast group. As before, cost will be £5 per session or £35 to cover the next 10 sessions up to March 22nd. The sessions focus on front crawl, and are fully coached, including focus on technique. (Note that this is not a 10 week 'course' as such, you can start any time, there just happens to be a 10 week payment option).
 
We have a wide range of abilities, and swimmers have been coming along with a range of aims such as fitness, injury rehabilitation, as well as to train for multisport events such as triathlon (for which we have a number of first timers aiming for a short local event in April).
 
Whilst in the past we had a little less pool space, with 2 hours we have more scope for a wider ability range, so if you are interested please let me know. Whilst we aren't able to teach people to swim from scratch, if you can do 50-100m front crawl, that should be sufficient to attend. If you're not sure, please just ask.
 
If you are interested in attending, please email me first so I can allocate you a place. My email is tri@windmilers.org.uk. Also, any questions just let me know.
