Say hello to Here 4 U: Run Club, a brand new addition to the Halls Life events calendar.
We meet, we warm up, we run (or walk) a friendly 5K together, then we head back for food, drinks and a catch up. It's a chance to get moving and get to know your fellow UAL Halls residents for only £2 per session.
Don't let the word "run" put you off
Whether you're a seasoned runner, a complete beginner, or you'd simply rather walk the route, you're welcome. Staff and students will be walking as well as running, so you can go at whatever speed suits you and still be very much part of the group.
What to expect
Every Run Club follows the same relaxed format:
- Meet up at your hall for an electrolyte drink, introductions and a running vest
- Warm up together
- Run (or walk) a friendly 5K
- Cool down back at the hall with food and drinks, and time to socialise
- Prizes: We're excited to be giving away ✨UAL art shop vouchers✨ to the first 5 people through the door at the event, so make sure to get down early 🤩
Where it's happening
We're kicking things off in North and South London, with more locations to come.
Tickets go live 13 August at 9am. Please note - you must be a resident of UAL Halls to sign up and attend this event. Please sign in and out at reception if you are not a resident in the hall of the meeting location upon arrival.
