Who we are...

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).

...and what we do!

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.

Meet your Max (new venue) - Wednesday, 25 June 2008

June 25, 2008
7:15 pm

VENUE  Registration, Start & Finish, Presentations and Catering at TRURO R.F.C. Clubhouse, St Clement Hill, Truro.

A 10k multi-terrain race around the Pencalenick Estate and Park Farm at St Clement, close to Truro.

COURSE  From the same team that brought you the old Max of which the course was said to be  the best in Cornwall – we hope this one will be seen as a worthy successor, providing 10Km of true multi-terrain. Starting on grass on the rugby ground (good for spectators ), the first ¾ mile on the road is designed to spread the field, before taking to the woodland paths of Pencalenick. After that there are short lengths of tarmac, but it is predominantly off-road. Leaving the woods, after the odd wet place, it’s along the old stone metalled riverside drive to St Clement.  The route then takes to the woods and field paths of Denas Road, still following the river, into Malpas. Turning for home, after a steep climb to Park Lane, it’s mixed grass tracks and paths down into the valley before climbing back to Park Lane, and then, after a steep descent to the next valley, it’s a long gentle climb to the finish at the Rugby Club. Trail type shoes would be useful.

For the people doing Cross Country at St Austell tomorrow

Here’s a vid with a (fairly tenuous) cross country connection. Grammarsow will have fond memories of these posers (I expect he’s got all their 12″ singles stashed under his bed!).

I was never a New Romantic myself - The Cure or Echo and the Bunnymen were more my scene (man)…
