Walk, Run, Cycle East Dunbartonshire (WRCED) was set up by founding member Lorna Thomson during the pandemic of 2020 as a way for the residents of East Dunbartonshire and surrounding areas to share local walking, running and cycling routes when all we were allowed to do was one hour of exercise every day. Our aim was to bring people together in a time when we were forced apart.
We have since become a non-profit constituted group whose members host regular meet up events each week from health walks to Munro days and everything in between. There's something for every ability so please check out our events schedule for details.
Any monies raised by us go straight back into the group for the benefit of the local community.
You may have seen our community bench which was recently installed on Christine's Way in Lenzie, our first collaboration with East Dunbartonshire Council. We hope to deliver similar projects in the future.
By requesting to join our Facebook group and agreeing to the group rules, upon approval by Admin you become a member of the WRCED community.
We encourage our members to share their adventures by posting and sharing photos of your favourite walking, running and cycling routes on the group feed. Alternatively, you may wish to share your favourite route by hosting an event.
We are very proud of the community we have built here and we hope that you enjoy the group as much as we do. It's the members who make the group so successful so thank you for joining us!
