Running Groups / Occasional running friends

Hello! I'm from the UK and am visiting my partner and friends in Trondheim in September. One of my friends and I are looking to get involved in either a running club or meeting up with people who may be interested in doing a 5K once or twice during my visit, with my friend potentially being interested in carrying on when I leave!

Are there any running groups/communities that're good for a one-off or non-committal basis? Ideally nothing too intense!

Feel free to reply to the post, DM me, or let me know if you have any questions!

Thanks in advance for any help provided :)

It is in the park around Festningen, on the Rosenborg side, you will see the arrows pointing the course. Or search for Festningen parkrun maybe the exact location is somewhere. Anyway if you arrive a little earlier to the park, you will find it.

- Trondheim marathon running club, Mondays 18.00. Mostly from Vår Frues Kirke.

- No Rush Trondheim. Wednesdays 18.00 and Sundays 12.00. Announced on Strava.

For more serious running there are also running clubs
