Club runs
Friendly, mixed-pace runs through Buxton and the surrounding Peak District.
Our club
All ages, all abilities – steady to speedy.
We are a diverse and friendly group of about 150 people from in and around the Buxton area who love to run!
Who we are
Road, fell, trail, cross country and track
Buxton AC began in 1977, founded by our current Club President Chris Bent. Today our members range from complete beginners finding their feet to athletes competing at local and national level.
We train and race across road, fell, trail, cross country and track. The club is affiliated with England Athletics and has been recognised at both regional and national level — but the thing we value most is creating a place where people feel welcome.
What we do
Coaching
Progressive sessions for juniors and adults who want to develop.
Competition
Teams and individuals racing on road, fell, trail, track and cross country.
Community
Social events, local races and volunteering that bring people together.
