OUR MISSION
We aspire to be the most inspiring run & wellness community for Asian women. We aim to break down the cultural barriers Asian women face, and give them the opportunity and confidence to be involved in physical activity.
The Sport England report of 2020 ‘Sport for All’ emphasises that ‘ethnicity & culture matters in sport and physical activity’.
The report highlights statistics showing how people from black, Chinese and Asian backgrounds are less likely to exercise than other individuals who are white.
RUN WITH US
We offer a weekly informal run club for complete beginners and those looking to move more, socialise, and have fun!
Run distances are usually 2.5km, slowly working our way up to 5km.
We love to be social and occasionally end our runs with a coffee meet up in New Malden High Street.
Our aim is to get more women from Asian backgrounds more physically active but we always welcome all women to join in!
WHAT THE AGR GIRLS ARE SAYING:
Sujan
Everyone is very supportive; if you have never been to a run club before, take the small step and join!
Jessi
From the very first run, I felt so welcomed and encouraged by an amazing group of women who continue to push harder and aim higher. Their support has helped me break past my limits, and now I’m training for my first half marathon!
Bonnie
I like the friends I’ve met through the club. AGR has provided a community of women who share my cultural background.
