A run club that isn't really a club.

Just a small group of people who like Sunday mornings in Richmond Park — and think running should feel like a reward, not a workout.

The story, briefly

It started with a text, and a Sunday.

Easy Like Sunday began in late 2025, when two friends enjoyed a regular run around Richmond park and wanted to share it with others — a regular Sunday run where the only rule was nobody gets left behind.

So we picked a gate, a time, and this club was born. Spread the word. Bring a friend. Some weeks it may be two or three of us, some weeks it could be a dozen. Everyone's welcome, nobody's paying, and the pace is set by whoever's taking it easiest that morning.

That's it. That's the whole thing.

What we believe

Five small rules.

  1. 01

    A run should feel easy, not earned.

    We're not here to suffer for Sunday brunch. If you're grimacing, the pace is wrong.

  2. 02

    Nobody runs alone.

    If the group's spread out, we regroup. The Sunday ends together.

  3. 03

    No entry fee. Not now, not ever.

    No memberships, no sign-ups, no club kit to buy. Running shouldn't have a pricing page.

  4. 04

    If you can't chat, we slow down.

    Conversational pace isn't a target, it's a test. If you're gasping, we're running too hard — simple as that.

  5. 05

    Turning up is the whole thing.

    You don't need to prove anything on Sunday. Showing up at 8am is the work. The run is the reward.

“The best run of the week is the one you're already looking forward to next Sunday.”

The people

Whoever shows up.

We're locals, mostly. Some have been running for years. Some are training for events. Others aren't. One of us started running to have an excuse for cake.

Nobody's in charge, nobody's taking attendance. Turn up a couple of Sundays in a row and you're part of it.

Come along on Sunday.

You don't need to know anyone, bring anything, or sign up for anything. The WhatsApp group will tell you where we're meeting this week.
