Welcome to

Heaton Harriers Athletics Club

Heaton Harriers & AC are a running club based in High Heaton, Newcastle upon-Tyne.

Founded in 1890, Heaton Harriers are one of the oldest running clubs in the North East of England. We meet for training sessions on Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7 pm and a Sunday morning social run at 9 am.

With over 200 members of all ages and abilities, we welcome new members to join us to keep fit and active whilst competing locally and further afield regardless of ability. Join us for a few training sessions at no charge to see how friendly and welcoming we are.

We are based at Cochrane Park Sports Ground in High Heaton.

Cochrane Park is just off the Coast Road (A1058) on Etherstone Avenue, postcode NE7 7JX

There is free parking, cycle racks, lockers and changing rooms available in the recently upgraded facilities.

Some sessions do not always start at Cochrane Park so please check the training schedule for exact locations.
