GCU ATHLETICS: FOREVER BLUE!
All About Us
What We’re All About
Located in the city centre of Glasgow, GCU Athletics provides training, opportunities to compete and social events to current and alumni of GCU. We are a student run club and
participate in a range of events from track and field to hill running, all throughout the year and across many organisations such as BUCS and Scottish Athletics.
​
Host to numerous Scottish and even British internationalists, the club strives itself on being an inclusive club.
Away from the competitions, the club trains various times a week after uni, with group runs Monday to Thursday and a gym session on a Friday evening.
We also host several social events throughout the academic year and have started to gain a reputation for both our pub and sub crawls.
​
If you're joining GCU this summer or are already here, then why not join the athletics team? We promise you won't regret it!
