Serpentine Running Club is a cross-country running club based in London, United Kingdom. It draws runners from across Greater London. Both the men's and women's teams compete in the races throughout the year: road races, weekend relays, triathlons, track & field leagues, cross country races, trail races and lots more. The club was chosen as ''Athletics Weeklys club of the month in May 2013 in light of its growth to a membership of 2200 runners.〔Moss, Emily (2013-05-02). (Serpentine Running Club win Ronhill/AW Club of the Month ). ''Athletics Weekly''. Retrieved on 2015-08-08.〕 ==History== The club was formed in 1982 after the first London Marathon by a group who wanted to train for the next one. By the early Nineties the club was competing in cross-country, track and field and road running, but it almost folded in the late Nineties. However, aided by an increasing interest in running, combined with the launching of the club’s extensive website, the club enjoyed a revival early in the 21st century. A member of Serpentine Running Club is named Serpie. Top athletes currently are Nick Torry (2:19 in London Marathon 2012), Richard Phillips (Wales international in mountain running), Becky Glover (world-class triathlon age- grouper), Sandra McDougall (third in Surrey cross-country championships this season and first in the Surrey 10km champs 2012), Andrea Clements (first place in the first leg of the national four-stage road relays in 2012) and Hilary Walker (club president and ultra-distance record-holder). == References == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Serpentine Running Club」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
