About HARRA

One of our key initiatives is to build a strong network among runners by organizing joint events with run leaders, clubs, and/or local businesses. These events offer a platform for runners from different clubs to meet, interact, and enjoy the sport together. Additionally, these events provide an opportunity for running clubs to showcase themselves to potential new members.
