Dagenham 88 Runners

Dagenham 88 Runners was founded as a jogging club in 1988. It has developed into a full road running and cross country club with approximately 150 members split evenly between men and women of all ages.

The club is managed by a dedicated committee of volunteers who are elected at the Annual General Meeting.

We pride ourselves on being friendly and inclusive.

We would love you to come and experience a training session with us and find out more. There’s no obligation to join until you decide the club is right for you.

Follow us on Twitter and Instagram to see what our club members have been up to recently.
