Join us for Well Run Brum - a movement bringing all abilities together to get men’s mental wellness on track through social running.

These fortnightly free-to-access 5KM runs will provide social support at a conversational pace.

Each run begins with a guest speaker, providing inspiration and motivation before setting off.

Well Run Brum's conversational pacemaker for Run #58 is Robert Oliver. 

Robert provided one of the most dramatic moments of the Paralympic paracanoe competition in Tokyo in 2021 as he claimed KL3 bronze after a photo finish. He has represented ParalympicsGB at every event since paracanoe’s debut in Rio.

The three-time world silver medallist who loves video games and karting is undoubtedly a talented sportsman, after a spell as a weightlifter he played football at a variety of levels as a teenager. In 2008 he broke his leg during a match, which required 17 operations. Nine months later he had his leg amputated due to medical negligence. Aged just 20, he felt like this area of his life had come to an end, until he found kayaking in 2011.
