Harrogate Fitmums & Friends

Harrogate Fitmums & Friends A friendly, supportive running and nordic walking group for men & women (aged 16+) of all abilities. We meet every Monday (except Bank Holidays) at 19:00.

Harrogate Fitmums & Friends is part of an amazing network of Clubs which started quite unintentionally in 2009 by a mum in an East Yorkshire village. She was missing the chance to make friends in the playground at her son's school due to working full time and so decided to see if any of the parents fancied a run. Five mums turned up that first night and it proved to be the start of a quite incredi

ble journey. Harrogate is one of two Fitmums & Friends group in North Yorkshire and welcomes men and women - the "& friends" is a crucial part of the name. No need to be fit already - or a mum. Everyone welcome from 16 years and up! Run distances of 1,2,3,4,5 and 6 miles offered at each session. You genuinely don't need to be a runner to come to us. And if you're already a runner but not in a club then come and try an amazing new experience. Come and try - it's so much more than a running club!

What a brilliant outdoor coached session in beautiful surroundings this evening.

We made full use of the hill leading up to Conyngham Hall for hill repeats; the benches and steps for some strength and conditioning; topped off with a practically perfect pacing exercise.

Thank you to our wonderful athletes. You worked so hard tonight.
