Learn to run with Run Leeds @ Horsforth Harriers Absolute Beginners
The focus of the Absolute Beginners group is to introduce people to the joy of running, using a Six Week Courses to build up from a very basic level. Everyone will be encouraged to progress at their own rate. If required, the plan will be tailored to suit members' needs.
The Absolute Beginners Six Week Courses are run back-to-back. We use three different Schedules which keep the overall structure of the Courses the same, whilst introducing variety into the weekly sessions.
If you are already able to run or run/walk you may not need to wait until the commencement of a Course.
Please have a look at the content of our three Schedules, you will see some running is recommended on three days/week.
| Schedule 1 | Schedule 2 | Schedule 3 |
The Club Session is held on Tuesday evenings, the other two are for you to do on your own or with some of your new friends from the Group.
We meet at 7.00pm in the Cricket Pavilion at the bottom of Hall Park, Horsforth, next to the A6110 ring road near the roundabout with the A65. Please see the map on our How to find us page.
As a new starter you will be helped to find your own run/walk programme and encouraged to improve. You will given a six week training schedule and advice on all aspects of running for fitness and enjoyment. At the end of the six weeks you will be able to complete a 5k such as a Park Run or a Race for Life
The first three weeks are free. After three weeks, if you like us, we will ask you to join the club. The fee is £18 which includes your England Athletics Competition Licence.
