Cross Country & Athletics
Whether you are an aspiring athlete of any sport who wants to stay fit and in shape or just someone who wants some regular exercise and heap loads of fun, you are welcome to come to our free training sessions.
We put on a variety of sessions, there is something nearly every day to get involved in, most join us for our Hyde park runs and for circuit training but there are opportunities to train down at the local athletics track and London's other great parks. Many competitions are held throughout the academic year, catering many distances and are open to runners and athletes of all abilities.
Other than the invaluable opportunity of going around different places in Britain and parks around London, we also host our very own Hyde Park Relay; considered to be the best international student race in Europe. We are one of Imperial's biggest and most successful clubs, and send teams to the major BUCS championships in Cross Country and Athletics. Moreover, we are also rich in traditional, including the infamous pizza eating competition, the South Ken Tunnel Race and going abroad in the summer for some serious "training".
