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 at various locations on Thursdays at 7:00pm. (best to e-mail first)
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.
To be held at Trannack Community Primary School on Saturday 8th March 2008

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)…
