Beacon Burners

The Beacon Burners is a friendly, social running group in St Agnes, Cornwall. We also have a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/169351766876482 where you can join a social run or organise one yourself.

Currently we do a regular Wednesday night hill sprints session at 8pm and a Sunday morning early long hills run. These are tough sessions for experienced runners. Click on the 'coaching' link to register.

For beginner runners, I'm not currently running a couch to 5k group but please contact me if you're interested in starting one as I'm happy to mentor and offer advice, or start a small group. The couch to 5k is a 9-week run-walk programme. It involves 3 half-hour sessions per week, starting with just 8 x 1 minute running with 90 seconds walking, and progressing over 9 weeks to reach 30 minutes continuous running. We usually run as a group for one session per week, and you will need to find time to do the other two sessions each week in your own time.  Download the 'NHS couch to 5k' app to guide you when running on your own. 

Pilates classes

I also teach 'Sports Pilates' classes focusing on strength, balance, coordination and injury prevention particularly for runners but also for other sports. These are challenging classes for anyone active. No prior experience of Pilates is necessary however please do contact me if you have any injuries so we can have a chat and make sure the class is suitable for you.
