JOIN US
Join Blaydon Harriers and enjoy a welcoming, supportive community for runners of all abilities, with regular training sessions and plenty of opportunities to achieve your goals.
UNDER 18s
Due to popular demand, the waiting lists for our Junior Endurance and Induction groups are now closed, and we are not accepting new athletes for these groups at this time. The Junior Hurdles group still has a waiting list, although it may extend beyond six months. Once you complete our membership form, you will be added to the Junior Hurdles waiting list and contacted when a space becomes available.
​
OVER 18s
There is no waiting list for the Senior group. Complete our membership form and our Membership Secretary will reach out to arrange your first session. We offer a free four-week taster membership so you can try out our sessions before joining.
