Juvenile training is twice a week all year round (Tuesdays & Thursdays from 6.30pm) where we introduce, train, prepare and enter our juveniles into Louth, Leinster & National Championships and other competitions held throughout the year in both Cross Country and Track & Field (indoors & outdoors) – 2/3 week break at Christmas & 2 week break in August/September.

Our Adults meet at the same time and place as our juveniles heading off in many directions around Ardee to complete 5k, 7k, 10k and longer distance training sessions in preparation for Cross Country and Road Races.
Once a member you will be added to our club’s Adult WhatsApp group where other training sessions including long distance runs, speed sessions, parkruns and ‘saturday or sunday fun runs’ are available at other times throughout the week and weekends.
All abilities welcome, from beginners looking to simply enjoy a run, or if you are coming from a ‘Couch 2 5k’, to those wishing to improve their speed and distance in Cross Country, 5ks, 10ks, a 10miler or take on the challenge of a half or full marathon for the first time. You can also be introduced to Track & Field disciplines, Sprints, Long Jump, Shot Put, Javelin, Hurdles, etc.
