Wednesday, April 2nd, 2014
Wednesday evenings starting April 2 through June 4, from 6:00pm-7:30pm.

This beginner-friendly gradual training program is designed to prepare participants to run 5km over the course of 10 weeks. Participants often begin at different levels of fitness and are encouraged to complete each training session to the best of their ability. The Learn to Run 5k program is based on a run/walk progression, allowing you to run for 30 minutes at the end of the clinic. It is progressive and fun, and the amount of running done each week increases slightly to help ensure you achieve your goals.

No past running experience is required. Weekly sessions will consist of a 15 - 30 min class covering training, fitness and technique, followed by a 30 - 40min group run session. A training plan will be provided to you at the first session outlining the entire clinic. Weekly emails will keep you in touch with your coach and on-top of the training plan.

Participants will meet in the cycling department each week. Gear check is provided.
