OUR STORY
​
​We are Queen's Park Harriers — your local run club.
We want to encourage a Love of Running because we know it's great for physical and mental health - & to grow community bonds & friendships.
Our members ar of ALL ages & run abilities: some of our members run marathons, some much shorter distances, some like cross-country, some just the occasional parkrun.
We're excited to invite you to our second 'Couch to 5km' programme, each Thursdays starting from Jan 15th for 9 weeks at Willesden Sports Centre.
It'll be fun, friendly & everything you need to feel confident about running 5km or more.​​
