Cross Country, Road and Fell

Tuesdays – 7.00pm to 8.00pm at Bradford and Bingley Sports Club, Wagon Lane, Bingley (postcode BD16 1LT)

This session is open to all Juniors from the age of 8 upwards, plus any parents who would like to accompany them.

There are two main groups :

1) for the older and more experienced runners there is a more structured session, led by one of the Club’s senior Coaches, and this may occasionally mean a visit to the UAK  track in Keighley (postcode BD20 6EB), whch will be announced in advance.

2) for younger runners and for the less experienced there is a group run, led by qualified Leaders, which will involve anything from 3 to 5 miles. depending on age and ability.

Routes will vary as much as possible, though in the winter months we have to stick to well-lit routes (the Club provides high-visibility tops).

Our main aim is to provide enjoyment, and to get young runners into the habit of running. As they gain experience we hope they will become Club members, and that they will then enter races wearing our famous club colours.
