Some musings on running....

Picture
  • 'I can't run'
  • 'I hated running at school'
  • 'I'm too fat/unfit/old/lazy to run' (delete as appropriate!)
  • 'I'm scared that I'll be out of place'
  • 'Everyone will be so much faster/fitter than me'
  • 'I don't know anyone there'
  • 'I've got the kids/dog/husband/wife to deal with'
  • 'I get all red and puffed out within 2 minutes!  I won't keep up!'

Sound familiar?  These are the top reasons I get from people for not coming to my running sessions!  None of these are barriers to you taking part (I promise!).  Just be brave, come along and see what happens - I guarantee you'll be hooked!
I set the sessions up after trying to find a non-scary running club myself - you don't need to be able to run for X miles or X minutes to come along, the whole idea of the sessions is that they are mixed ability and open to everyone, irrespective of their current level.  We're not a bunch of 'racing snakes', 'skinnies', or 'fitness junkies' we're normal people of all ages, sizes and abilities that are looking for a fun and non-scary environment to get fit and improve (or start!) running.  

Don't know anyone that comes?  That will only last for the first 30 seconds!  We're a very friendly and welcoming group, so you'll instantly be part of things!  
We don't care if you can't run a mile, if you're a little (or even a lot!) overweight, or if you have three heads, and we don't care if you can run 26.2 miles either!  (hmm, OK, we might care if you had three heads...) It's all about getting together and having a giggle while getting fitter and faster.  The sessions are cunningly devised so that slower people are never at a disadvantage (in fact, the faster people normally are, as I make them do extra!).  Complete beginners very welcome!  Friendly dogs and well-behaved babies/kids are welcome to accompany you too.

Sound less scary...?   Here's the boring admin bit:

Remember that many people (perhaps who you least suspect) have 'invisible illnesses' and chronic pain.  In many ways you can tackle this with diet and exercise - do let me know if you need more details?
