Cannon Events Running Club

Cannon Events is a welcoming running club and community based in Derbyshire, serving people interested in fitness and competitive running. Founded by John Cannon, the club aims to make running accessible and enjoyable for people of different ages and abilities, from beginners to athletes pursuing personal bests. Its activities include friendly group runs, children’s development programs, weekly training sessions, and personalised one-to-one coaching for fitness and race performance. Members can also access guidance on running footwear and nutrition, tailored training plans, and timed runs to monitor progress.

Beyond training, Cannon Events organises walking and running events, community challenges, and fundraising activities for good causes. Its calendar includes monthly community 5K events, the Chesterfield Santa Run, cross-country league races, and social gatherings such as an annual awards evening. The club shares race results, championship standings, training schedules, and resources for runners. It offers annual memberships for adults and children, with a club hoodie included in the first year of adult membership.
