In answer to some of the questions sitting in our inbox… Yes we are Still here 19 years later Always on a Tuesday Yes anyone can come No you won’t get left behind Yes we clap a lot Yes there is bag drop No it’s not a cult Yes New shirts are on the way Yes we are doing a big london marathon shake out run and after party Yes we’ll be roadside at mile 20.5 outside Limehouse Townhall on marathon day Yes we are open to collaborations with brands that align with our ethos but no to collabs that are detrimental to our community. No we are not interested in ever going back to the days of being a huge crew because then the people who need it most don’t come because a big group is intimidating. Yes we don’t use socials as much anymore because Run Dem has always been about real life in person connections and we got tired of people making assumptions of who we are and what we do solely based off Instagram posts. If you wanna find out how we roll then come on down. Yes we are more likely to work with people who integrate themselves into the community or come down for a run first before hitting send on yet another chat GTP generated email saying how much you admire our community. We’ve been working on RDC for 19 years so we already know it’s dope. ………….

For some, it’s a challenge. For others, it’s community. For many, it’s simply about showing up - exactly as you are. This is what we saw at So, Run. Voices from across the route, different experiences, different journeys, all brought together in one moment. Not defined by pace, background, or where you run - but connected through the act of running itself. Because So, Run isn’t a run club. It’s a community of runners and run clubs. A space where you don’t have to choose one lane. Where you can move between communities, discover new routes, meet new people, and still run on your own terms. Which is exactly what we saw at the most recent @wunnarun London Edition. In a city full of run clubs and crews, So Run exists to bring it all together - creating one shared platform where every runner belongs. Running that fits your schedule. Proud to build this alongside the wider running community and platforms like the TCS London Marathon, continuing to open up the sport to more people, in more ways. Together, we move. #SoRun #LondonMarathon #WunnaRun
Under the lights, the track told the truth. . 10K time trial. No filters. No hiding. Just rhythm, breath, and belief. . Tonight wasn’t just about times. It was about people choosing themselves. Again. . PBs landed. Barriers fell. Sub 40 was claimed. . But the real win sits deeper. . In every runner who once thought this space wasn’t for them. In every step that pushes back against who the outdoors has been built for. In every voice, every body, every story taking up space without apology. . Track & Core is not just a session. It’s a statement. . That we belong here. That performance and community can exist in the same breath. That showing up, together, changes what’s possible. . Different journeys. Shared ground. And the standard keeps rising. . We Are T&C! .. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #trackandcore #londonmarathoncommunitytrack #ukathletics

As we mentioned in yesterdays post, one week on Saturday, that’s Saturday 7th March, come and join us at the artificial grass steps of @coaldropsyard for our 4th ever London Social! We’ve moved this one to Spring to try avoid the heat we’ve had the last few london summer ones, was loads of you we know wanted to come to last years at Battersea but the 30c + temperatures made that impossible. So, this years, spring. Come meet us for a 10k loop guided as always by @steve.burns.5205 and @tracyng_se starting and finishing at Coal Drops Yard just next to Kings Cross and as always will be a nice chill run, plenty stopping for pics and sightseeing! Here’s a #throwbackthursday to last years London social running from Battersea to Elephant and Castle. Was such a great route and one we’d love to do again in a future London social! Who’s coming along to this spring social! It’s gonna be a great afternoon, promise you that!
London got SHUT DOWN yesterday 🏃‍♂️🔥 1,000+ runners. Pure energy. Pure community. Pure movement. The @wunnarun x @so.run_ London 5K wasn’t just another run… it was a full takeover. From the first stride to the final sprint, London was alive with passion, purpose, and people pushing limits together. Congratulations to @so.run_ for setting the tone as the official run partner, the organisation, the vibe, the execution… ELITE. This is what happens when culture, fitness, and community collide at the highest level. From seasoned runners to first timers, everyone showed up and showed OUT. London running culture is evolving and yesterday proved just how powerful it’s becoming. More than a run. This is a movement. If you missed this one… just know, it’s only getting started 👀 Bigger runs. Bigger moments. Bigger impact. Next one loading… ⏳ #londonrun #runningcommunity #sorun #wunna #run5k

What a blast Saturday was for our London Social. Lil sneak peek too at one of the 3 colourways (and the full design ) of our upcoming NCRC + goodies worn by @steve.burns.5205 for you eagle eyed lot. We had a great time at our London social on Saturday but it confirmed some things we’ve been thinking about for a while. We’re a brand who celebrates the solo runner, our quarterly socials have been an unexpected bonus and have really been great giving those of you who want to run together occasionally chance to. But the last few years the attendance numbers of our London social have been dropping each one. Thing is, when we started our socials 5 years ago, a social run was a relatively new thing, offering something different from the traditional running club session, but now half a decade later, social runs are a regular thing, in the place you live now we bet in the next week someone will be doing a social run from a coffee shop, a social run finishing at a pizza spot or doing a social run in collaboration with a brand or a retailer. It’s amazing for the running community having so many options but has made ours feel a bit less special. Which is fine, things change and we adapt! So, last weekends London Social will be out last social in the capital and we’re currently working on plans for refreshing our entire approach to socials. Initial feeling is just hosting 2 a year, a big summer social weekender, months of notice to give people chance to plan, with a few events people can dip in and chose from on the Saturday and Sunday or if you’re travelling to the north east you can do them all and have an amazing weekend with us and then a End of Year social giving people a chance who couldn’t make the summer social chance to get along and catch up with people rather than having to wait a full year for the next one. Announcement coming in the next week or so once we fully decide on plans but we’re also open to feedback so comment below what you think! Thanks again to everyone who did come along on Saturday, was amazing meeting new faces for the first time and catching up with regular faces! Hope you all had a blast and hopefully we’ll see you up north some day!

The On Cloudmonster 3 👟💥 What a brilliant night with On and their amazing team! Another fun, high-energy event that brought everyone together for some miles, learning, and plenty of good vibes. We were lucky to have @lucyamberjones_ as our special guest. Lucy is an On Ambassador and elite athlete, and she only went and won the National Cross Country Championships two weeks ago 🥇 — incredible! Lucy led us through some seriously effective running drills before we headed out for an easy 5k - with the Cloudmonster 3 on our feet. She shared some great insights and inspiration with everyone there. Huge thanks Lucy for pushing us a little and motivating us a lot! And of course, a big thank you to the On team for putting together another fantastic evening. They always deliver such a great event. See you all again soon — more events are on the way! 👟✨ #onrunning #localrun #londonevents #runninginlondon
