🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️ That’s a wrap on HARC Athletics! 🏅

By Sara SherwoodNo Comments
20 sessions completed, and what a season it has been! Our junior athletes have worked incredibly hard, developing their technique across running, jumping and throwing, and it’s been fantastic to watch their confidence and skills grow. But it wouldn’t be HARC without the personalities, the laughs and, of course, the cheeky comments that came along with every session! 😂❤️ Every single junior brought something special to the group, and they’ve made these sessions an absolute joy. We finished the season in the best way possible, with the parents getting involved too and what a blast we had! 🙌 The final session was topped off with three very proud coaches presenting certificates to each and every athlete, celebrating all their hard work, progress and commitment throughout the season. 🏅👏 20 sessions. So many memories. Plenty of laughs. And a whole lot of proud coaches! ❤️ Well done, everyone — what a brilliant season! 🎉...

Sunday Social Run – Masham & Hackfall 🌿

By Sara SherwoodNo Comments
This week’s Sunday social run, expertly led by Ste Moon, started from Masham Market Place and followed a beautiful 13.4km (8.3 mile) route along the river through the stunning Hackfall Woods before returning to Masham. With around 509ft of elevation, there were plenty of climbs to challenge the group, but the spectacular scenery and friendly atmosphere made it well worth the effort. A big thank you to Ste for leading another fantastic route, and well done to everyone who took part. The Sunday social runs are a brilliant opportunity for members to explore new routes, enjoy great company and get the miles in together. Here’s to the next adventure! 💙...

A week of sunshine ☀️

By Sara SherwoodNo Comments
This week brought more sunshine and humidity which can make running much harder. It didn't stop the HARC team though. Intervals, longer and shorter social runs, parkruns, marathons, and Race for Life 10k. The coaching team met up on Saturday to keep up to date with their coaching skills and discuss future routes/training warmups. Busy, busy, busy - just the way we like it!...
