About this run

**Leader Dawn** A Couch to 5k course suitable for complete beginners or those who would like a gentle re-introduction to running, finishing with a graduation 5km parkrun. Based on the NHS Couch 2 5k, this is a proven, carefully structured programme designed to get anyone from total novice to running 5km. Each week there is one structured group session of around 45 minutes, plus you need to commit to doing two 'homework' walk / jog / run sessions of up to 30 minutes each (full details provided). There is a Facebook group for support and to arrange meet ups with other group members for your homework runs to keep yourselves motivated and on track. On the course you will learn dynamic stretches for warming-up, static stretches and cooling-down, good technique, how to increase stamina, and how enjoyable running can be with like-minded people. Week 1 is a taster, then you need to sign up for the whole 9 sessions of this course. The £30 fee includes annual membership of the CV Snails.
