NEW LOCAL RUNNING GROUP FOR BEGINNERS

[Tue 18th Jan] 

Blyth Running Club have started a new running group for complete beginners.  The group will be led by Alison Lowes who has recently become a qualified “Run In England” Leader.

Beginners will take things very much at their own pace, and the group will encourage people of all abilities and ages to try running.  Age isn’t a barrier, fitness isn’t a barrier and, with guidance, health issues rarely present a barrier.

It’s all part of the ‘Run in England’ scheme which is aimed at newcomers, or anyone who hasn’t put their tracksuit and trainers on for many years.  This is definitely not for more experienced runners, but gives everyone the chance to take some regular exercise without feeling as if they’ve been left behind.  Have more fun training in a group with other runners in and around Blyth.

The scheme is backed by England Athletics.

Everyone is welcome to join up, whatever their age, size or ability, and fully trained group leader Alison will make sure that you’re well looked after and having loads of fun.

If you'd like to give it a go, please contact group leader, Alison on 07792860740
