Sowerby Bridge Snails - When we move, we're stronger!

Founded by local resident Jodie Smith in 2016, Sowerby Bridge Snails Running Club was created for those seeking a running group that’s more about community than Lycra or intense training. Now one of the most inclusive and supportive clubs in Calderdale, the Snails welcome runners of all abilities—from total beginners to seasoned marathon runners—in a relaxed and friendly environment.
