NORHAM RUNNING CLUB (uk)CLUB PROFILE |
|
|
|
Our main meeting each week is in Norham on Thursday, but we also train in Coldstream Monday
Our club colours are now familiar over the North of England and Southern Scotland where most weekends some of our members will be racing. We participate in road, cross country and hill races.
Within the club there are internal events, such as a club championship based on a handicapped race in September, a cross country championship during the winter, a target award scheme for achieving or beating agreed targets over the year.
On the social side our Thursday meetings all end at one of
the local hostelries. Annually we have a christmas dinner and
presentation and organise a coffee evening. Most of the events
or races we have end with food and drink. We also use all excuses,
christmas, easter, championship etc etc etc to organise a social
after.
We organise a number of races
for others ourselves each year, and alongside those of
our local nearest opposition in Berwick, Dunbar and Eyemouth
we have a healthy amount of competition without travelling too
far.
Over the years we have supported a number of charities through our events, most notable being a relay right around the county boundary of Northumberland in aid of Chest, Heart and Stroke. The distance of 261 miles of mostly rough country was completed in 38hours and 40 minutes.
