Our Story

Our Origin

EZ.RC was born in 2023 as a simple idea: a few mates, led by Tommy Burnell, coming together for a Sunday run. An opportunity to get outside, move and connect.

What started as a collective craving for normality post pandemic, quickly grew into something much bigger.

Today, EZRC is more than a running club, it’s a movement, an inclusive community and a place to belong.

Our Purpose

At the heart of it, we’re all about connection. The ups, the downs, the days you just can’t be bothered and the days that it comes easy. It’s those shared moments that make this more than just a run club.

We’ve built something meaningful, a space where you can show up exactly as you are, feel supported, and grow at your own pace.

It’s about moving your body, clearing your head, and being around people who just get it.

Our Values

Community

A place where everyone, from seasoned runners to first-timers, feel welcome, supported, and inspired to be part of something bigger.

Connection

We face fears together, push our limits, and celebrate every step forward, no matter how small.

Belief

For us, running isn’t just about the miles; it’s about resilience, progress, and discovering what we’re capable of, physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Our Mission

It’s bigger than just a run club. We’re here to build a movement that transcends running. A movement that brings people together through shared passions and real connections.

We see a future where EZ.RC is the heartbeat of running culture in Wales. The biggest, most welcoming crew around. A true community, where everyone feels included, supported and inspired by the transformative power of movement.

Nobody gets left behind.
