Welcome to Alnwick Harriers official Website. The site has been online
since December 2004. The site is not only intended to promote the club

visit and enjoy.
We have also provided links to other athletics clubs and organisations.
Club History
Alnwick Harriers was formed in 1981 and became affiliated to the AAA
in 1982 At its inception there were 10 members. The club now has
about 100 members both male and female of all standards, some are at the
“hot end” of races whilst others run just to keep fit. The Senior
Section of the club is primarily involved in road and cross country races,
although some of our members enjoy fell races and Monroe bashing. Over
the years the club has used a number of venues for changing, including
Alnwick Rugby Club. The senior section of the club now operates out of
Willowburn Leisure Centre, Willowburn Road, Alnwick. The seniors
meet every Wednesday evening at 6:45 pm at the Leisure Centre. The sessions
are varied and finish with a shower and then down to Alnwick Town Centre for
a cup of coffee or something stronger depending on your taste.
Saturday and Sunday morning sees some of the more fitter members doing a
long run (10 to 15 miles). The long run isn't compulsory but it may
help you to build up your stamina! Ask at the club for further details of
these runs.

section, formed in September 2006 is still in its infancy, but already has
