On a Tuesday night please do not do not park in front for the two cars parked by the two side doors closest to the hall as they belong to the dance teachers in the big hall. The cars are a black volvo reg S8KNS, and either a silver fiesta HK02GWJ or blue peugeot KA04NZY. - Thanks Julie
Harriers meet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7pm, in the winter at Summerheath Hall, Summerheath Road (B2104), Hailsham and in the summer at Hailsham Community College, Battle Road (A295) on the School track. The training schedule set out on this page is discussed by the coaches before being implemented.
The main training at these sessions is geared to faster running (much easier to do in a group). On any structured training schedule faster running is recommended (even for those involved in marathon training). All sessions involve fast groups and not so fast groups, (there is always someone the same standard). Many sessions are designed to bring all standards together which brings about a good club atmosphere. Harriers meet to run together all over our local area.

On holiday? come along.
Does this seem like something you should be trying? Give it a try, come along to any training session and Harriers will do there best to make you welcome (remember Harriers are a mixed bunch of all ages). Further information can be obtained from any of the Harriers.
Being involved in a running club brings a lot of different things to running:-
it is not just for the very best,
it is not just about beating other runners,
it is not elitist,
it is about enjoying your running,
it is about fitness.
Even if you are not in our area, club involvement is right, interested, still interested see our links page I'm sure you will find something there.
Running is fun.
