Mounts Bay Harriers are the newest local Running, Triathlon and Athletics Club in Penwith, being set up by local triathletes and runners in June 2005. The club meets at Mounts Bay School every Monday at 7pm for social runs of varying lengths, with structured coached sessions on Thursdays at 7:30pm at the Astro Park, behind Penzance Fire Station.
The club now has over 200 members and regularly has 20-30 turning up for training sessions. Of the group that turn out there is always a wide standard of athletes from beginners, who are especially welcome, to accomplished triathletes and runners. The club also has a large junior section who meet on Friday nights at "The Dome" at Mounts Bay School, Heamoor.
Welcome to our June Road Running eBulletin. This will be the first in a series of regular communications to keep you updated on England Athletics support programmes for road running clubs.
The new Thursday night training programme is now available on the site, but you’ll have to be logged in (and a member of MBH, naturally) to see it! It’s posted in it’s own category called ”Thursday Training Schedule”.
The course in Cornwall takes place on Saturday 7th July at Poltair School, St Austell 10am to 2pm and the cost is £10.00.
Dan Welch of Freestyle Performance will be delivering a four hour practical workshop focusing on medicine ball and bodyweight exercises. This will allow coaches to gain new ideas and to improvise, especially if access to a specific strength and conditioning facility is limited.
You can get a Booking form here.I do hope that coaches will support this course. There is a limit of 20 coaches.
