jonny121 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 I luv going out for a run but now got to the point where i find myself going slow or even waiting for people I run with. So I really need people of my own ability, what level of fitness would I need for a running club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningowl Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Us at hallamshire harriers run from the bowling green clubhouse in hillsborough park every tues and thurs at 6pm. Ability wise it is anything from elite to beginner there is a group run for you, what kind of ability are we talking? Any races and what times?

jonny121 Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 Never done races, but I do half marathons in just under 2 hours but that was last year before I had time off with a operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningowl Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 When I returned to running in 2007 I ran 1hr 59min in the Sheffield half. In oct 2007 I started running with hallamshire harriers and it was the best thing I ever did. This year I am aiming for sub 1hr 25min. Wouldn't be where I am without the club. Come down on a tues or thurs night at 6pm. You can just run with a group and see if it's for you. No pressure to join, just come and run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonny121 Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 It's all sounding good, what distance do the groups run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runningowl Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 Each group is different but the the main group do between 6-8miles. There is also a slower group who do up to 6miles. The sessions last around an hour to an hour half. Let me know if you decide to come down, I am there tues and thurs normally but i have a fell race Monday so probably won't be there tues.
