The Club Today

The club today has a strong membership covering a wide range of ages and abilities from juniors through to life members. There is a healthy balance of new members and members who have been with the club for many years – this works well and promotes encouragement and learning in both directions.

The club’s involvement in and commitment to the local community is as important now as it was 130 years ago. We maintain close links with local schools, highlighted by our burgeoning junior section. The club’s place in the local community is proudly acknowledged with a stained glass window in Maryhill Burgh Halls commemorating its long history in the area.

We train on Tuesday and Thursday evenings and are supported by qualified (and scottishathletics commended) coaches for both seniors and juniors.

Harriers run and race in all events (local and National) from 5k parkruns to ultra-marathons. There are also intra-club championships (with members vying for silverware dating back to the 19th Century!) and merit leagues. However not everyone in the club races and we accommodate runners who are training for the sheer joy of running.
