Welcome to the Athletics Club: Where Fun, Friendship, and Fitness Collide!
Who Are We?
Hey there! We're the awesome HWUD Athletics Club, and our journey started in 2019. We're all about championing fantastic athletes who have a passion for track and field excitement. But guess what? We're not all about the serious stuff. We're all about teaming up with other sports clubs, both on and off campus, for practices that are not only effective but also loads of fun. And hold on tight, because we're all about crafting amazing adventures too! Think hikes, mountain climbs, desert runs, and cycling escapades. These adventures bring in new faces every year – people who are eager to grow and make our club shine even brighter. Trust us, it's a perfect way to build stronger bonds among us.

What's in Store for You?
Welcome to our exciting training sessions! We kickstart our Mondays with a focus on track-specific strength and conditioning sessions. This is the day we delve into plyometrics and fine-tune our running mechanics, ensuring we're primed for peak performance.
On Tuesdays, it's all about variety and specialization. We cover a wide range of track and field disciplines, including sprints, long distance running, middle distance events, long jump, javelin, and shot put. It's an action-packed day where we explore different aspects of athletics, catering to diverse interests within our group.
Midweek, on Wednesdays, we maintain our sprinting momentum while adding a twist with high jump training. It's an opportunity to hone our skills in these specific areas and reach for new heights, quite literally.
Thursdays are another dynamic day where we revisit sprints, long distance running, middle distance events, long jump, and now, high jump once again. This day serves as a comprehensive workout that allows us to focus on multiple disciplines and continually challenge ourselves.
Throughout each session, we incorporate heart-pounding HIIT workouts to push our limits and embrace the thrill of athletic training. The first hour of our gathering is dedicated to high-intensity interval training (HIIT), elevating our fitness levels and enhancing our performance in all areas.
Afterward, in the second hour, we break into groups, delving into the events that truly ignite our passion and cater to our unique interests. It's a chance for each of us to shine and pursue personal growth in our chosen disciplines.
To conclude our sessions, we engage in cooling-down exercises to ensure a proper recovery and maintain our bodies' well-being. These sessions are designed to help us recover, relax, and rejuvenate after our intensive training.
Join us in this exhilarating journey of self-improvement and athletic exploration, where we celebrate our individual passions while pushing ourselves to new heights!
