Club Night Information
Club Nights at Hoad Hill Harriers
If you are possibly thinking of joining one of our sessions, here is some information about us.
We are happy for people to come down and try us out for a few sessions, then make a decision about joining. We have 140 senior members; half are social runners and the other enter races regularly over various distances.
Monday Nights
Monday night is social run night, meeting at 6:45pm at the clubhouse, leaving at 7pm. There is also a circuit training session in the sports hall before the social run, starting at 6:10pm lasting half an hour, which costs £1. There are three groups that go out on Monday, covering 4-8 miles, the fast group averages 9-minute miling, the medium group with catch-up stops, (10-minute miling) and the slower groups (11/12 minute miling) covering 4 to 6 miles
If you are not up to covering 6 miles at any pace, we can easily organise something to cater for your requirements. Currently, a slow group is organised, covering 3 - 4 miles. We will always make sure new runners have company and run at a pace and distance they are happy with.
During the darker winter months, the Monday social runs are on roads and lanes around the Ulverston area, always starting at the clubhouse. It is essential a high viz bib/clothing is worn, and many run with a headtorch.
Once we lose the dark nights, many of the runs involve off road sections, through fields, woods, beach etc. starting from different locations.
Thursday Nights
Thursday night is rep. sessions run by coaches, starting at 7 at the clubhouse. There are two groups, one for the faster runners, and another for the rest, although many runners swap groups depending on what the session entails. New runners are always catered for, and we can tailor the session to suite their current fitness/running ability.
There are changing rooms and showers available at the club.
After rep sessions on Thursday nights, a group of us can be found in a local pub, rehydrating!
If you are thinking of coming down, email us through the contact links on the website, and let us know when you are coming. We look forward to meeting you, and hope we make your sessions with us rewarding and enjoyable.
