Cranleigh is between Guildford and Horsham on the B2128 (see Map) (if coming from Guildford, the Cranleigh Cricket Club is on the left opposite the Cranley Hotel). Our annual membership is usually in the region of 65 people, with typical running groups of around 25 during the summer
runs. Our members are of varying age and ability from top club standard
right down to joggers. So regardless of your age or fitness, there will
be a group to suit you. Apart from winter-time street runs our training
is mostly cross-country within a radius of ten miles from Cranleigh.
Throughout the year we have a number of social events allowing us to explore the local restaurants and pubs. During summer 2010 we formed an alliance with the Cranleigh Sunflowers Ladies Running Club A local club established by ladies for like minded ladies who wish to run together and use their spare time to develop their fitness. No previous running experience necessary - just determination and chat. Sunflowers are welcomed into the Tortoise and Hare.
Depending
on numbers there is usually a fast, a medium and a slow running group.
The mid week sessions are off road in British Summer Time and around
the streets of Cranleigh in winter. These sessions last for about one
hour and
comprise intervals, fartleks, tempo-runs, hill work or just running for the sheer exhilaration.
On Sundays we typically have 2 types of runs happening. One run where the emphasis is on a slower, longer run of between 90
minutes to 2 hours taking in some of the most stunning countryside and
hills in the area. The second run is about Marathon Training and distance which takes place during most of the year. Both runs depart from the Leisure Centre at 8am on Sundays. Keep an eye on the calendar for changes.
Why not come along on a Tuesday or Thursday evening and try us out? Annual Club Membership is £25 and is inclusive of the following;
