Member of the Month
Every month a Harrier will be chosen as "Member of the Month". This might be awarded because of the effort shown in training, personal goals achieved, dedication following a return from injury or simply by helping out! Read more about previous winners.

I started running around the age of 11, taking part in local fun runs, cross country and fell races. By my late teens however I had lost interest and spent most of my 20s doing very little exercise. I was quite overweight when I injured my back at age 30 and it was the jolt I needed to get my fitness back. I got involved in triathlon and eventually completed an Ironman in 2011! Then everything was turned upside down again when I became a Mum. I’m still passionate about running and triathlon but training is much more challenging than it used to be. That’s why I love being a member of Thirsk and Sowerby Harriers as they provide a great social support to encourage you whether you’re having a good or a bad day. I always come home from a session feeling proud of myself.

I was chuffed to win member of the month, as well as quite surprised – there are a lot of people who do a lot more for the club than I do. I’d better pick my feet up and help out more now! Since joining Thirsk & Sowerby Harriers I’ve loved being part of the warm and welcoming community, as well as enjoying all the training and the racing that comes with being part of the club. Personally, my running has come on leaps and bounds since joining T&SH – so a big thanks to the great coaches we have, and especially thanks for the tough Wednesday interval sessions
