Wicklow Wolf Running Club

Introducing the Wicklow Wolf Running Club. 

We worked hard for many years to get our running club set up. In June of 2022 we finally did it. A social running club focussed on getting our members out running on some of the fantastic trails that Wicklow has to offer. All runs are organised by running coach René Borg of Runningcoach.ie. Rene will be on hand throughout the year to offer any advice and support to our members.

Our First Meeting – Friday july 8th 2022

The Wicklow Wolf Running Club met for the first time on Friday July 8th 2022 at the Taproom. From here, they embarked on their inaugural run up through the hills and forests which surround us here at the brewery. Coming in at just over 8.5km, a few well earned beers were enjoyed upon their return. 

Two years on, the Wicklow Wolf Running Club is more than seventy members strong, taking to the Trails as a group once a month where we run some of the best trails our home Wicklow has to offer. Whether you’re an experience runner with years under your belt or a complete beginner, we welcome runners of all abilities! Join us for a a fun, inclusive and social run once a month where you’ll meet great friends and of course, enjoy some great beers.

January 2025 run – Bray Head

A week’s delay due to the weather didn’t dampen our spirits—when we finally hit the trail, we were rewarded with a clear night that made the challenging climb up Bray Head well worth it. At the summit, we paused to take in the breathtaking views over Bray before making our way back down. Runners had the choice of two routes—a 6km or an 8km—led by Rene and Graham, with a pack of over 40 members close behind. After finishing at the seafront, we celebrated with refreshing cans of Wicklow Wolf 0.5 and sampled the newest additions to the Wicklow Wolf Non-Alcoholic range: Wicklow Wolf 0.5 Mango and Wicklow Wolf 0.5 Pineapple.
