This month we are shining a spotlight on HI Runners (Histon & Impington Runners) who have been around for just over 12 years. The ethos of the club is the same now as when it was first set up, which is to be an inclusive running club for runners of all abilities. They have sessions in Histon and Impington, Northstowe, Willingham and Cottenham.
Their runners cover everything from couch-to-5K, all the way up to ultra-marathons and their sessions are led so that everyone can take part regardless of their ability, speed or level of experience. Their members run for a whole host of reasons from keeping fit to helping with their mental health.
As an England Athletics affiliated club, all of their sessions are run by club volunteers who have taken the required training courses offered by England Athletics.
They have a “Social Sunday” run most Sundays in Histon, where they run in groups based on pace, but have various stopping points where everyone joins up and then continue. Typically ending with a visit to the Station House Cafe.
Full details can be found on their website and they welcome new members who can come along to any two sessions for free before deciding to join.
