The aim of the club is to promote safe and sustainable fell running in and around the West Midlands. Legacy Site
The club needs help! Anyone that can help - or organise next years Mercia club social event. This is when we present the year's trophies. We can get on and book the food, bar and entertainment. Please volunteer!
And. With IT. We need someone not to do any work! But Dave Nichols that currently manages the web site etc needs someone to just "shadow" him. So if anything happens to him we can still access and manage "Merciafr"!
Please contact John Ateyo, or Dave Nichols. Read more

Oli Perratt gave further credence to his fantastic fell running ability by winning the Kentmere Horseshoe, 5th counter in the Lakes Grand Prix, on Sunday 21 July. In a field of 264 starters, Oli (01:34:22) was ahead of 2nd place by almost 4 minutes at the finish. Jack Agnew (01:42:31) finished an excellent 3rd overall and, together with Joel Gomes (28th, 01:53:49) and Tom Treasure (75th; 02:06:55), they also secured 3rd place in the Men's Team competition. It's worth noting that Joel had sucessfully competed in the International Snowdon Race only just the day before. Read more
