Welcome
Formed in 1976, Matlock Athletic Club provides competition for runners of all ages and abilities from the recreational runner to the competitive athlete. Based at the Arc Leisure Centre in Matlock with the beautiful Derbyshire scenery on our doorstep, training nights are Mondays at 6.00pm and Thursdays at 6.30pm.
The club has a very active social and racing programme and hosts the popular White Peak Marathon and Swift Half Marathon, two annual fell races, a round of the BDL XC series, the Peak Rail 7, a triathlon and also gives practical support to the Whitworth Thread and a number of other local races.
Enjoy our website and feel free to get in touch.

Our Junior training sessions are currently full to capacity and since our waiting list has become so long we have unfortunately had to suspend till further notice. If you already have a child on the waiting list we will get in touch as soon as a place becomes available, however this is on a one in, one out basis, so please bear with us.
