the friendly running club
Chippenham Harriers is a friendly running club with 150+ active members. We welcome runners of all abilities over the age of 17 years. We meet on Tuesdays (7pm) & Thursdays (7pm) at Chippenham Sports & Social Club.
On Tuesdays we do speed sessions and on Thursdays we run a predetermined route of between 3 and 7 miles. We try and divide people into groups of similar speeds and ensure that there is a sweep so that no one runs alone. We advise new members to attend Thursday nights for their first session as this is our official club night when have announcements and stop for a drink and bite to eat after the run. There is free parking and showers available at the Sports and Social Club.
For those who want to take up running we have organised a number of successful beginners group in the past. We organise an eight week programme for all abilities. We met each Friday night at 6:30pm - 7:30pm at the Sports & Social Club, we will be introducing this again in 2008 starting on 9th May to 4th July and again starting on 5th September to 31st October, or why not pop down on our main Thursday club night.
We have a series of Club Championship Events and organise a number of our own races throughout the year. We organise monthly social events and a web based club forum which sets out news and views!
