Club members meet up at a variety of times and locations: -
- Wednesday evenings during the winter months we meet at 18:30 in the old library car park, top of Eastrop in Highworth. There will be two groups offering different routes / distances.
- During the summer we meet up at a series of local pubs for evening runs in the local countryside followed by a well earned drink and chat afterwards.
- Monday evening track sessions at the athletics track behind the County Ground in Swindon to help members develop speed and fitness - meet at 18:30.
- On Saturday mornings we meet at 09:30 in various locations within the area for social runs on local trails. There will be two groups, offering different routes / distances.
- HRC enter a team into the local cross country league and there are always fellow members running in local races.
We run an annual competition open to all club
members known as “The Club Series”. Races take place
at regular intervals throughout the year with prizes for age category winners and the overall winner at the end of the year. Each race is based on a runners predicted time so that everyone has an equal chance of winning – you don’t
have to be the fastest runner to win, just improve on your handicap
time.
Full details of coming events and meetings are regularly updated on this site.
In additional to the regular club events, we also organise a couple of races open to runners and members of local clubs: -
- Highworth 5 Mile - a very popular race in April from Warneford school around the Fresden loop.
- Wickstead Wander - an increasingly popular event returns each November incorporating a cross country run from Warneford School to Wickstead Farm taking in some interesting equestrian challenges!
