Welcome to the Portslade Hedgehoppers

We are a small, friendly running club. We warmly welcome runners of all abilities. The club was founded in 1982 and is a member of the West Sussex Fun Run League, East Sussex Sunday Cross Country League and England Athletics.

Our members participate in a number of events such as the West Sussex Fun Run League (WSFRL) races, parkruns, cross country and road races, half marathon and up to full marathons and ultras. So whether you are simply looking to keep fit, socialise, make new friends or run your first race, whatever the distance, then why not join the Hedgehoppers.

Our runners meet twice a week on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

We are pleased to welcome runners of all abilities, although we regret that we are unable to cater for absolute beginners.
