Who are the run sessions for?
Everyone!! It does not matter if you are just starting out, not
very fit, walking, or you have been injured and getting back into
running or you have been running and want to join in with others, and
have fun. You work at your own pace. |
|
|
|
How are the group run/walk sessions organised?
We have a 2 weekly program: |
|
Week 1 is
drills and exercises to help your running/walking. anyone can do these, regardless of your fitness or experience level, as
you work at your own pace. The charge for this session is
$5 |
|
|
Week 2 is a group
run/walk around Hagley Park. We split into groups depending of
fitness ability. These groups vary depending on who is there but
most weeks will include a 3-4k walk, a 3-4k walk/jog, a 5-6k
Run/Jog/Walk and a 7-8k Run/Jog.
With these runs the rules are simple- it is not a race so we look after
each other and no one gets left to run on their own. There is no charge
for the Week 2 run/walk |
|
|
|
The mission of the run group: |
|
Is about starting running, keeping running, meeting others and
picking up tips along the way, supporting and encouraging each other. And most importantly, having fun while
gaining fitness. |
