Who We Are & What We Do
Ampthill and Flitwick Flyers mission is to provide a running club that caters for ALL running abilities in the local and wider community.
Everyone is welcome regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, or sexual orientation.
Qualified coaches provide suitable, safe, and structured training sessions so that runners can improve their fitness and running ability.
We strive to encourage, help, and support all our members, from beginners looking to get started with running to achieve 5k or 10k goals all the way through to experienced runners who wish to achieve longer distances.
We actively celebrate and encourage success, however small, through social media and at our annual awards presentation.

donations to our chosen charity
Every year AFF donates 15% of net income after costs of the 2 club races, the Flitwick 10k and the Marston 5K to the charity we have selected.
Throughout 2024, we have chosen to support a charity close to the hearts of two of our members. Above and Beyond Cancer Foundation
Above and Beyond Cancer Foundation offers support to people, their carers, or family members who have been diagnosed with cancer. They provide a safe place for those to chat and talk through their experience. Access to complementary and holistic therapies is also available should they feel that this will aid in their wellbeing during this time.
In addition to the club donation, we will also undertake other fund-raising activities to help raise much needed money for this amazing charity
