Ravers2Runners began in 2019 when Jo Bryan-Smith of JBS Fitness returned to Bristol after a stint in New Zealand, trading late nights for early runs. What started as three friends jogging around the Harbourside quickly evolved into a growing community of people who love music, movement and connection. The group brings together those who still feel the pulse of rave culture but now prefer endorphins to strobe lights — runners finding their own kind of high.

Beyond the weekly 5km(ish) loops, Ravers2Runners channel their energy into good causes through annual charity “fund-raves”, blending fitness, fun and philanthropy. Now expanding into Bath, the first Bath run kicks off on Monday 13 October at 6.30pm, meeting at Ring O’ Bells with a bag drop, a relaxed loop and drinks to finish. Whether you’re a lifelong runner or a dancefloor veteran, this is community in motion.
