Helsby is a small friendly
local running club based in the village of Helsby in north Cheshire.
We currently boast about 85 members, 60 men and 25 ladies, of
all abilities from stars to plodders with ages ranging from 17
to 73.
Our club house is the
former BICC sports and social club on the A56 at the western
end of the village (see "WhereAreWe?"
for details of how to find us). This we share with the village
rugby club which ensures a plentiful supply of good cheap
beer. Club night is of a Wednesday evening and starts with the
club training run at 6:30pm. See "Training
Runs" under the "Club
Events" pages, these also include our Club
Diary and a Photo Gallery.
We hold a number of club
championships throughout the year, from a road racing championship
to one the fells. Details of these, the fixtures and current
state of play can be found under "Sections".
In addition we host several races
which include our premier Four
Villages Half Marathon.
We aim to provide a warm
welcome to anybody in the area (or indeed just happens to be
passing through) who is interested in running, whether you are
a superstar or just want to take up some exercise to shed a few
pounds. For contact information then click on "Contact
Us" to e-mail us.
Finally keep an eye out
for the green and white vests on the roads and fells thoughout
the year in the north west (and occassionally further afield)
of merry England.
Web Navigation Note
This website is split
into a number of smaller weblets as shown in the green bar to
the left and roughly described above. Each weblet has its own
top page. On each page (except this one) there is a "Home"
button which will get you back to this page whereever you are
in our pages. Once in a weblet its button will invert its colour,
hence reminding you of where you are (especially useful if you
have followed a link from one weblet to another). Clicking on
it will take you back to its top page.
