Run or Marshall to help us raise funds

August 27, 2016 by Rachel Gibbons Leave a Comment

flag at topCalling anyone up for a challenge – entries now open for Penistone’s toughest running race on Sunday 18th September. You can book online or download an entry form: Penistone Hill Race Entry. Registration is at Penistone Leisure Centre, then everyone walks up to the showground to start the race. It is 10km through stunning countryside – up and down a lot of steep hills! There is more information on the Penistone Footpath Runners’ website.

Even better, this race is a big fundraiser for all the things we do at Penistone Leisure Centre, kindly organised for us by Penistone Footpath Runners. If you don’t want to run, but could help with the marshalling – pointing people the right way and encouraging them – please let Annie know.

Become a Penistone Warrior!

Human-BBQ_2-815x500A team from Penistone Leisure Centre is going to the Total Warrior event in the Lake District in August. This is a 10km run with 30 obstacles, most of them involving mud, water, ice, fire and huge challenges to climb, balance or drag yourself through. You will either think that sounds great or ridiculous… to the first group – Would you like to join us?

The whole team is not super fit by any means (although some are!), but are getting training in at Warrior Fitness with Jamie on Fridays from 6:15-7:15pm (except this Friday 15th 7-8pm). If you have any questions or to join the team please contact Jamie by email or on 07544 113616.

Penistone Hill Race

September 1, 2015 by Rachel Gibbons Leave a Comment

Our fundraising event of the year is Penistone Hill Race, which has been adopted by Penistone Footpath Runners.

It will be on Sunday 27th September, so you’ve got a few weeks to get some training in! It’s a tough race, 10km right to the top of Hartcliffe Hill and down to Langsett – then back again. A great challenge.

If your talents lie in supporting rather than running, we will need lots of volunteers as marshalls, at the Leisure Centre and generally helping out. If you can help please get in touch with Amanda.

More details will be coming soon
