Running for beginners
Would you like to meet new friends, get out into nature and give running in a group a go? In our new running group we meet on Tuesday and Thursdays between 8 September to 5 November.
The focus is on getting started with running, meeting others, establishing a routine and running into autumn. We alternate between walking and running at a leisurely pace.
Group format:
- Each session starts with us checking in and walking a short distance, followed by alternating between running and walking according to an interval schedule.
- In the first session, we walk for four minutes and run for one minute; this is repeated six times.
- Each week, we’ll gradually increase the amount of running in various ways, and we expect that anyone who wants to can reach five km of running by the start of November.
If you can only come occasionally or once a week, you’re just as welcome as anyone who can come twice.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’re keen to get started.
