Membership

Give us a test-run

We’re scattered across North London, with lots of sessions throughout the week. Take a look at our training sessions, find what fits in best for you, come say hello, and give us a test-run.

First-timer or experienced athlete, at school or haven’t competed since your school days, everyone is welcome. You can usually join in straightaway, and the first session is on us. When you join the club (we’re pretty confident you’ll like us), all our sessions come as standard.

Thinking of joining?

We’d love to have you on #TeamHeathside. Membership is just a hop, skip and a jump away.

You’ll get: 

  • A club vest – so you can compete in red, blue and gold right away

  • Free entry for league competitions – track and cross country (5 Met League Races, 4 Sunday League, 7 Chingford League)

  • Entry to Championship Cross Country |Races (County, Southern and National)

  • Automatic registration with England Athletics (£19 from April 2024)

  • Discounts at specialist athletics shops

  • £2 off road races (you’ll often see it as an ‘affiliated entry’)

  • The chance to join our club training trips

  • A flurry of invites to our social events

We compete in the widest range of running and athletics events locally and nationally.

Junior (under 18) and adult athletes/runners can both join online - see the relevant section below.
