Griffithstown Harriers was set up in September 1983 and is recognised as a well-established running club in South Wales.
We are based at Glan-yr-Afon Leisure Ltd, on Edlogan Way, Cwmbran, Torfaen. We are within easy reach of Newport & Pontypool. We are a friendly social club, welcoming runners of all abilities who wish to participate in road running, multi terrain, fell running and cross country events. The club participates in the Gwent League and the Gwent Leisure Centre Leagues.

Griffithstown Harriers take pride in welcoming all abilities to the sport of running. Training with like-minded, experienced runners reduces the risk of injuries and helps maintain motivation.

We meet every Tuesday & Thursday at 7pm. If you are interested in joining us, simply come along and try a few sessions.
Come and try for yourself:
