    Hello,

    I am looking to start back jogging / running (after 2 years) however I'm lacking some motivation. Are there any other runners in Limerick city who are in the same position, maybe would like to join?

    Well as I said I haven't been doing much over the past 2 years! I wouldn't be beginner but I'm certainly not advanced...somewhere in the middle

    There are a few athletic clubs in Limerick: Limerick AC (my club); West Limerick and Dooneen AC. They be involved in track, road and cross country competitions through out the year.

    However there is also a number of running groups to cater for runners who want to get fit for some local 5Ks and 10Ks but are not too serious.

    One such group

    I don't know if I'm any good to you, working in limerick but not living there. I run 3-6 miles on city routes at lunchtime-ish three days a week. No speed merchant by any means but might be good to get you back in the habit... I won't be joining a club as I'm not around in the evenings! No worries if that doesn't work for you...

    Clubs aren't professional :)
    Most clubs will have a range of standards from beginners to fast runners, and training to suit everyone

    Would recommend Limerick fit4life. They meet every Monday (circuits) and Wednesday. Really lovely bunch of Ladies with varying fitness. Its also free- you only have to pay insurance cost which is 20Euro

    Probably means elite, rather than professional?

    I think Limerick AC have a tendency to cater more for that end of the market. Country Club Runners would be a good option if city-based on northside and they defo have range of abilities in their ranks. 3 workout days a week is good OP. You'll hit full form in no time at that rate.
