Club training sessions take place on a Tuesday and a Thursday evening.

Tuesday evenings, start 6.35pm

During the summer months (beginning of April to end of September), we run on trails and quiet roads in the countryside every Tuesday.  Each run takes place in a different location and the schedule includes places like Bennachie, Pitfichie, Haddo, Inverurie and Oldmeldrum.  You can see the details of each run on the club calender.training run 2

In the winter months (beginning of October to end of March) we revert to the streets of Inverurie on a Tuesday evening.  Most of the runs start at the Garioch Sports Centre, although there are monthly 'headtorch' specials, where we take our headtorchs to some of the less bumpy trails around Aberdeenshire.  All the details for the runs are on the club calender.

The ‘standard’ 6.25 mile/10km route through the exciting streets of Inverurie is outlined on this map. Members usually run the route in between 45 minutes and just over an hour. For guidance, running it at a 9-minute mile pace takes about 56 minutes.

Thursday evenings, start 6.35pm

Thursday evenings are for more structured training, including reps, speed sessions and hill work.  Most of this takes place around Inverurie and you can find details on the club calendar.

New members

New members can come along and join us on any night. So no matter how slow (or fast) you are, someone will run with you. Just get in touch with one of us in advance to let us know you’re coming if you can!

New member nights are also good for members coming back from injury, or returning to the sport after an absence, as there will always be someone to run with, at a slower pace than you might be used to!
