How Little Feet Started

In 1989 Les and Jackie Brown arranged a trip to Berlin to run the Berlin 25K. During their stay in Berlin some of the group started talking about how The Stragglers was organised. Jackie Brown Suggested to Colin Jones that they should form another branch of Stragglers, the idea was that this should be on a different night and should be for beginners, slower runners or those returning from injury. Colin lived next door to the Albion pub, so he thought this would be an appropriate venue. Colin spoke to the landlord, who agreed, The Stragglers committee gave the go ahead and Little Feet was started.

The number of runners and walkers coming along on a Monday evening has gradually increased since Little Feet was formed, this we believe is because it is a beginners running group and also because of the friendly atmosphere that is created by all the members. We also have some very keen (and faster) runners (who are also very friendly) coming on Mondays.
