We had a fantastic turnout this morning for the latest Bexley AC Beginners Running Course. The aim is 10 weeks to get to 5k!!
Despite the weather we had a large and keen group of folks taking part - some are starting from scratch and have never tried running before, while others are returning from injury etc.
Whatever the motivation, running is proven to help mind and body. Sometimes it’s just about knowing how to get started, and this is where courses like this can help.
Everyone completed our Week 1 activities with flying colours. This provides a solid base for the rest of the course.
We are looking forward to next Sunday. We are already seeing how much potential there is to be unlocked in the coming weeks.
Thanks to the Bexley AC coaching team and the other Bexley AC volunteers for their assistance this morning.
It’s not too late to join in...please get in touch if you’d like to give it a try: beginnners@bexleyac.org.uk
Our next Beginners Running Course starts tomorrow!! 🏃♀️ 🏃♂️
We are looking forward to welcoming all who have registered, and we look forward to seeing you all at 9:45am.
Weather may not be perfect, so please bring suitable layers and something dry to put on afterwards in case it rains.
Half Term Activity for 6-11 year olds....The application form for our next Half Term session to be held on Tue 22nd October is now available for download at www.bexleyac.org.uk/?page_id=5102
