New to the club?
Be part of it...
If you are interested in running and you are starting
at Cambridge University in 2009-2010, whether you will be an
undergraduate, postgraduate, post-doc, or professor, this page is for
you.
You could come to Cambridge and have a pretty good time. You study
hard but go out and enjoy yourself. All the conventional things you'd
expect from your University experience. Or you could have all this but
make your time here truly memorable by getting involved with the
Cambridge University Hare and Hounds. Hopefully this website will give
you an idea of what's on offer but it cannot do the experience justice.
It's intangible. You have to experience it to find out. So come and be
part of one of the oldest and best running clubs in the world.

Reading the FAQ may
answer many of your questions but if you have any more please get in
touch with the Club Captain whose contact details can be found here. In fact we would like to hear from you
anyway. Just drop us a quick email telling us about yourselves.

Also seriously consider coming on the week-long September training camp. It would be the
best way to meet members of CUH&H and a great start to your time at
Cambridge University. Many freshers have done this in the past and have
really enjoyed it. Freshers' Week last year took place from Saturday 4th
October to Sunday 12th October 2008. There will be some kind of running
session on every day. All will be posted up on the training page. Other events include...

TUESDAY & WEDNESDAY of Freshers' Week: Freshers' Fair, Kelsy Kerridge Come and find our stall at
the fair which takes place in the main Kelsy Kerridge sports hall. Meet
some committee members, find out more about the club and ask any
questions you might have.
The opening times are:
Tuesday: 9.00am - 6.30pm.
Wednesday: 10.00am - 3.00pm.
SATURDAY of Freshers' Week (in October): Freshers' Fun Run, Wilberforce Road Pavilion The Freshers'
Fun Run is as competitive as you make it. There will be prizes for
the first three male and female freshers. It is a chance to show what
you can do. It is also always fun. The run, entirely on road, is the
first event in the Chris
Brasher College League.
Men's Distance: 5.1km
Women's Distance: 2.7km
Registration is from 1.30pm. The ladies' race starts at 2.15pm and
the men set off a few minutes later. If you would like to take part,
either contact your college
rep, who organises teams, or just turn up on the day. You can
also register on-line to save time.
After the race there will be tea and cakes served in the pavilion.
Here you will be able to meet the two captains and the committee. You
will be able to join
CUH&H, find out more about what's going on during the Michaelmas
Term, and also buy kit.
