5 KM Beginner Clinic
The Trappers’ Running Club is now organizing a clinic for individuals who have not been running regularly over the winter months. This clinic is appropriate for anyone who:
- Is new to running and interested in beginning (must be able to walk 3km fairly easily)
- Has ran in the past but has not ran for a few months/years and needs a program that will very gradually progress to avoid injury
- Has tried to run in the past but due to injuries was forced to stop
- Has had a baby recently (or not so recently) and wants to get back into running. We will select stroller friendly routes!
Registration will cover two organized group runs per week over an 8-week period for a total of 16 runs. The two group runs will take place on Tuesday evenings at 5:30pm and Saturday mornings at 10:00am. The first few weeks will focus on running and breathing techniques so you will learn how to run properly to minimize the risk of injury. There will be a total of three runs per week, so registrants will complete one run on their own independent of the group.
Once you register for the clinic you will receive the 5km training program. There are three different options to choose from within the program based on your running experience and fitness level. Registration for this clinic is open until April 30, 2018.
NOTE: You must become a member of the Trappers' Running Club in order to join this clinic. When registering as a member, you will also have the option to register for the 5km clinic. Please visit the link below:
