More Experienced Ladies

The club has around 50 adult lady members ranging in age from 20 to 60’s, with some ladies just starting out and others with years of experience.

There is a friendly, positive atmosphere at the club with the opportunity to participate in social runs, with plenty of chances to discover new routes in the surrounding beautiful countryside.  The people around you will soon become familiar faces.

Interests in road, cross-country and fell running are all catered for, and we encourage any interested ladies to follow their interests, under the watchful eye of qualified coaches.

For those wanting to take things a bit further, there are a number of club training sessions throughout the week.  Why not come along for a taster on a Tuesday evening for a taster of the Senior Track session at the Bolton Arena from 6.30pm.  This is structured around speedwork for a range of abilities, but no less suitable for a beginner.  There is also a Hill Session on Thursday evenings meeting at the junction of Foxholes Rd and Factory Hill, Horwich at 6.45pm.  All sessions are lead by qualified coaches, and are a good opportunity to get some advice (further information in the Coaching section of the website).

Some ladies build up their confidence enough to want to start participating in local races (e.g. 5k road) and enjoy the sense of achievement as well as the camaraderie this brings.  Whatever you are looking for as a runner, Horwich RMI Harriers has something to offer.
