Despite living in Cornwall I joined a Southampton Club, Lordshill Road Runners. I work in Southampton on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Tuesdays is one of their training nights, in the winter its hell reps (sorry a typo should be hill reps but the typo is a good description). During the summer they have a great session of sprint drills etc to help sharpen for races. There is also a series of off-road inter-club races every second Wednesday in the Southampton area during the summer. The drive back to Cornwall after is a drag but the races are fun.
I also belong to a virtual club as a second claim member. TeamCOCO was formed by the charity Comrades of Children Overseas (COCO) for its supporters. It is an affiliated club, so you get a saving on race costs plus you get guaranteed entry to some races and other benefits
