Welcome to Alton Runners

2011-May-8 Alton 10 mile race teams (small) At Alton Runners we welcome runners of all abilities. We do of course have a number relatively fast runners and some impressive club records, but we are also very keen to encourage and welcome slower runners. Meet a few of our typical members here.

Regular training sessions are Tuesday and Thursday evenings, plus many Sunday mornings especially in the summer months.

We aim to foster both road running and cross country running across the superb local countryside. Our headquarters is the Alton Sports Centre.

Some of our members compete in road races, Hampshire Road Race League and/or cross country races such as the Today's Runner Cross Country League. Many of our members, however, do not compete but enjoy running for fitness and for pleasure.

We also organise two local annual events: The Alton TEN, a 10 mile road race, one of the  HRRL league events held in May each year, and the multi-terrain Downland Challenge, a 10K and 5K event held in October each year.

We are strong supporters of local Charities through the Lions who distribute the profits of our two annual races to good causes.
