🏃‍♂️ Runners Connect Community

Runners Connect Community isn’t just a name — it’s a group built on shared miles, honest conversation, and proper support.

 

It started with one simple idea:

Let’s create a social space for runners — without the pressure, without the ego, and definitely not just about one person.

 

🌱 Where It All Began

 

When we first talked about hosting a social run, I knew I didn’t want to name it after myself.
Freddy Runs is about my journey — but this was bigger than me.
It didn’t feel right to put my name on something that was meant to belong to everyone involved.

 

So Runners Connect Community (RCC) was born. A place where people could come together, run together, and grow together — whatever stage they were at.

We started meeting for occasional social runs. Encouraging each other. Showing up for events, from parkruns to big race weekends.

And then came Endure 24 in 2024 — where everything clicked.

This is where a small group of us met up in person, some for the first time, and we ran Endure 24 together.
People who'd followed the YouTube channel.
People who shared their stories with me.
People who made this whole journey feel real.

It was never just about running. It was about connection.

 

🎙 The RCC PLODcast

 

As things grew, the conversations did too.
So I teamed up with Scott and we launched the RCC PLODcast.

It’s relaxed, honest, and all about the running community — without the nonsense.

We talk about training, injuries, motivation, life stuff… the bits that don’t always get shared on Strava.

 

Just like the community itself, the podcast isn’t about elite times or polished performances. It’s about keeping it real — and a bit of light-hearted moaning along the way.

 

💬 What Runners Connect Community Stands For

 

• Support over stats

• Friendship over finish lines

• Progress over perfection

 

We’re a group of people who love running — some fast, some slow, some just getting started — but all in it together.
