Club Background
Carnegie Harriers were formed in August 1991, to cater for the interests of road runners in the Dunfermline area.
Since then our range of activities has been extended to include cross country, ultra and hill running. Whatever the distance, someone in the club is likely to have run it - from a mile to a marathon and considerably beyond.
As well as taking part in races throughout Scotland and beyond, we do our bit to promote the sport by organising a number of events during the year. These include a series of one and two mile road races in Pittencrief Park, the highly successful "Auld Toun 10k", the "Graham Clark 3.9 Mile Memorial Race" and our own Festive Forest Run. Most of these are all open races and attract runners of all abilities.
The club provides an opportunity to make new friends and we aim to cater for all levels. This applies to the social aspect as well as the physical. Our structured training sessions on Tuesday and Thursday evenings are designed to help improve the fitness and performance of our members. Informally we explore new routes and exchange training ideas.
For the more competitive there is the chance to represent the club in a variety of events during the year. The club has a number of annual awards, where we give prizes in all three disciplines of road, hill and cross country running.
We're proud of the progress we've made since 1991, thanks to the hard work of our members, our Committees and the support of our sponsors.
