meet the commitee

Cobra have a committee to handle everything from upholding the constitution to organising social events. We are a friendly bunch and we look forward to meeting you at one of our sessions.

 

Our Committee

Jackie

Club Secretary

Hi I’m Jackie and I am the club Secretary. I joined Cobra in January 2017 having signed up for the Couch 2 5K programme.  I made some lovely friends during the first ten weeks training and because the Cobras are so friendly, I decided to become a fully signed up member. Since I started running, I have achieved several half marathons and have been part of the ladies Cobra cross country team. I am a keen park runner and also volunteer on Saturday mornings. You’ll normally see me out on the Wednesday night runs.

Neil

Chairmanoach

I’m Neil, the Club Chairman, coach, and an active runner, cyclist, and swimmer. I joined Cobra after reading an article about the club, back when it was first founded.  I went along to the session and met John Lloyd, one of the club’s original founders who still runs with us. Competing in cross country and the London marathon with Cobra, I value the club’s inclusivity and support. We cater to all levels and goals, ensuring no one is left behind on our runs. I’ve organised Couch to 5K courses and made lasting friendships during my time as a member.

Sam

Treasurer

Lyndon

Committee Member

Hi, I’m Lyndon, a proud member of the Cobra Committee. After years of training on my own, I joined Cobra to connect with like-minded individuals who share my passion for fitness and good company. The club has exceeded my expectations, offering a lively community where I can train, socialise, and excel. I enjoy running, cycling, swimming, and anything that allows me to enjoy the great outdoors.
