Notes from the run leader

An 8 week course for those wanting to take up running.

 

Starting on the 23rd April 2026 - 11th June 2026.

Thursday evenings: meet at 6:45pm to sign in/ warm up starts at 7pm. 

 

This course will help you complete a 5k run or 30/40 minutes running by the end of 8 weeks.

Complete beginners welcome!

One session per week with the group, meet at 6:45pm at the Rugby Club to register, for a prompt start at 7pm .

We'll give you a training plan with 'homework'  for a further 2 runs to complete independently each week.

Come and complete a 5k parkrun at the end of the course with the support of the Whitchurch Whippets.

The total course cost is just £10, and this entitles you to a discount on club membership if you decide to join.

Cash payments only on the first night please.
