More Experienced Men

The club has nearly 200 adult male members, with a wide range of abilities, covering all ages.

Always well represented at local races, new members will find that whatever their level there will always be someone to race, someone else to catch, and someone to have a chat and compare notes with afterwards, both within the club, and in other local clubs.  The people around you will soon become familiar faces.

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 when there is 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).

For those already taking things a bit more seriously, the club is competitive as a team at all age groups, on the road, cross country and fells.  Regularly taking the team honours in local races, and also recent winners of both the Calderdale Way and Pennine Bridleway Relays, the club is also often in the points in national fell championship races.  We often put out many teams in relay events, so everyone gets a chance to be part of the team and enjoy these great days out.

Whatever you are looking for as a runner, Horwich RMI Harriers has something to offer.  For more information, please contact Alastair Murray (01204) 401344.
