The senior members of the club, who must be 18+, meet every Tuesday and Thursday throughout the year for group training sessions.
On Tuesday nights the focus is on speedwork and is mainly on the roads around Helensburgh. Our Thursday sessions are trail runs and cover tracks and trails similar to our September hill race, Hel’n’Back.
The Thursday session will often include hills and mud but are longer distance, more social runs with loads of banter and laughs!
Training Schedule
The Tuesday night training session will start at 7pm either from the Clubhouse, Red Gauntlet Road or from Victoria Halls, Sinclair Street.
The sessions are planned monthly by our Senior Coach and published in advance on the HAAC Facebook page.
The Thursday sessions are less formal and will depend upon, among other things, the weather and the time of year (shorter runs on darker nights!).
Risk Assessments
The safety and wellbeing of our members is of paramount importance. As such, risk assessments have been carried out to consider and put measures in place to mitigate risk.
It is essential that runners are visible when running on public roads and should wear suitable clothing throughout the year. On dark nights, Hi Viz clothing is mandatory.
All members are required to read the risk assessments:
