The Hamilton Harriers are committed to the delights
of running while offering the opportunity to avoid the loneliness of
the sport. We meet at the Hamilton Downtown YMCA located at 79 James Street South. While many of
the Harriers are YMCA members, you need not enroll to be a Harrier. Join us for regular runs on
Wednesday evenings at 5:15 p.m.
Saturday mornings at 8:00 a.m.
The distance and pace are your choice. Don't be worried about keeping
up. We have runners of every ability, so you need not run alone.
