We are all looking forward to re-starting training after the current lockdown. It looks like the final part of Step 1 of the COVID-19 Roadmap will go ahead on 29th March, which will allow us restart outdoor training. With that in mind, here is our restart plan:
Senior training will begin again on Monday 29th March at 7pm and return to the normal Saturday and Monday session thereafter.
Junior training will start back after the Easter holidays on Monday 12th April at 7pm.
As we have seen before, the situation can change very quickly but we will keep you updated and informed as and when we hear from England Athletics.
To help keep everyone safe and healthy as we return to running and athletics at HAC, the rules and guidelines we had in place before the lockdown will remain.

For Junior and Seniors, a challenge for charity with medals for the runners who clock up the most Ks and other fun events.
There will be an entrance donation to charity and whatever the runners raise, HAC will match it. The charity we have chosen is The Trussell Trust, the foodbank for Thetford.
All we ask is for a donation to the local foodbank, no matter how big or small. Whatever you manage to raise, HAC will double the amount.
Here's the link to log your runs and where you'll find all the info for making your foodbank donations: HAC ADVENT CHALLENGE
The Challenge
From 1st December to 24th December we want you to run as many kilometres as you can – you choose the distance and the routes.
All entries will receive a medal and we also have some extra prizes to win along the way.
Prize 1 – Best Christmas Fancy Dress
Prize 2 – Most kilometres run Senior
Prize 3 – Most kilometres run Junior (must run with an adult so get your parents involved!)
Prize 4 – Best Christmas Strava Art – create your own Christmas picture with your route.
You then send evidence of your runs and your artwork into us and we will total up your kilometres and we’ll also share your amazing artwork on our website and FB pages. We would also love to see photos of you on your run, the route, your Christmas outfits etc which you can post on the Harling Athletics FB pages.
So, come on Harling Athletics Club members. Let’s finish 2020 on a fantastic high. Let’s get out those Christmas jumpers and leggings, socks and hats and get running – the challenge is on!!!
