Half-day (3 hour) workshop for women who want to learn to run for basic fitness
Come and discover that running can be fun in an informal, small group workshop

£35 per person including refreshments and personal dvd
After a previous course, one happy client wrote;
“I’d been running for a couple of years and have never had any training. I'd
done a few half marathons (for fitness for triathlons and ski touring) and
did not find them enjoyable. I found the course just what I needed to turn
this around - my aim was to enjoy and feel more comfortable running - after
3 weeks I have a better running style, pain free knees and much improved
breathing - overall I am enjoying my running much more. Thanks a million”.
