πŸ»πŸƒπŸƒπŸ½β€β™€οΈ Holmfirth Harriers Running Pub Crawl

Update: Rumpus is now full, but you can still join for the running and pub stops.

We’re excited to announce our first Running Pub Crawl β€” a Saturday run but with a twist of stopping off at local pubs for a drink (soft or alcoholic), designed to bring the club together for a fun day out.

This is not a serious run with different routes planned out for those who are serious runners (and drinkers) and routes for those who want a steady pootle and chat between Meltham and Slaithwaite. Feel free to invite friends, partners, pets or family members who you think would like it.

πŸ“ When & Where?

  • Date: Saturday 30 May

  • Time: from 12:00

  • 🍻Venues: Meet at the Fourth Fiend Tap House between 12:00 and 12:45 (depending on group) then leave about between 12:40 and 14:00 and head to:

    • The Travellers Rest (optional)
    • Will's O Nats (optional)
    • The Riverhead, Marsden
    • Zapato (just off the canal) - good food stop.
    • Finish at the Hideaway Craft House in Slaithwaite.
  • What's the plan? Stop for a drink (half or pint) in each location, and run.

πŸ‘‹ Who’s it for?

Everyone connected to Holmfirth Harriers is welcome:

  • Runners from all training groups and abilities
  • New members and long-standing members alike
  • Friends, partners, pets and family members are very welcome too
