Sorry you missed this!
Starting on Thursday 8 January at 7pm we ran a 9-week program to take you from Couch to 5k – with a celebratory graduation run at Heslington parkrun on 7 March 2026.
Each week we hosted a Couch to 5km run group with regular run leaders as part of our Thursday social runs.
We followed the NHS Couch to 5km plan and each Thursday, followed the plan for the first run of the week. Our members then ran the other two runs each week on days that suited them. We suggested doing one of the runs at York parkrun on Saturday morning where you can always find a Holgate Harrier runner for moral support.
All this costed only £15 which got them:
- 1 supported couch to 5km run each week and
- 15-month social membership to Holgate Harriers
Sorry you missed this! We might run this course again so if you’re interested then drop us an email on holgateharrers@gmail.com or on facebook and we’ll let you know.
Our social membership means you can carry on running with the club after the couch to 5k. Membership will run from January 2026 to March 2027. It gives you access to our regular runs, discounts and socials:
- club social runs every Thursday with a distance and pace to suit everyone
- fortnightly womens’ Let’s Lift the Curfew runs during the dark winter months
- fortnightly structured training sessions
- monthly tourism parkruns
- monthly trail runs
- discounts for running kit and services
