From county or elite runners to people who can’t run at all, we pride ourselves on helping everyone. Our 24 qualified coaches and leaders take groups of every ability and help them reach their maximum potential. We are often the largest team at the Cornish Grand Prix races. We attend almost every race in the county and many further afield.

The Dublin trip was a lot of fun, and this has the same potential. Don’t miss out! Contact Scott for details.
• Barefoot running. Julie Hanson gives an interesting insight into barefoot running – The Story of the Five Finger Shoes

• Down here on holiday? Visitors, fast or slow, are always welcome to run with us.  Just turn up at about 6.45 at Hayle Rugby Club on a Tues (main club night) or Thurs night or Sunday morning session. Or call us first if you prefer.

For all club entries you pay on the day, but if you withdraw after the club entry has gone in you are liable to pay the entry fee. Email Andy to enter any race. A plea from our lovely captains. Please please can you get to races where the club has done your entry at least an hour before the start. This is important because it allows Craig, Faye and Rachel time to sort the paperwork (on your behalf), check entry money and hand it over and then get ready for the race themselves. Thanks.
