Join Us

Why become a member?

When you join Kippax Harriers, you’re not just signing up to run — you’re joining a supportive, sociable community.

As a member, you’re automatically affiliated with England Athletics, which gives you insurance cover and reduced entry fees for most races. It’s a simple perk that saves you money and keeps you covered while you’re out doing what you love.

Club nights

We meet every Tuesday evening at Garforth Leisure Centre. A few of our regulars plan routes each week, so all you need to do is turn up and enjoy the run. Most groups cover 5–7 miles, and we have a track session or hill work on the last club night each month for anyone who wants to push themselves a bit further.

Social runs & events

We’re a friendly bunch, and we like to keep things fun. Our most popular social events are the pub runs — steady 5‑mile routes from the squash club to a local pub, mostly off‑road on footpaths across the fields. No one gets left behind, and the pace is relaxed.

The best bit? There’s a pint waiting at the end and a club‑funded buffet that’s always cracking. Good food, good company, and a good run — it’s what we’re all about.
