Since the store opened we have held a Saturday morning run each week. The turn-out has varied from week to week though we have a hard core of regulars who show up week after week.
For some time we have discussed setting up a runners club which would take our running seriously but not that seriously. Staying fit and healthy should be fun and running is no different. So as we launch TrySports News it seems like a good idea to launch our new Run for Fun Club at the same time.
Who is this club for?
Anyone who likes to run and have some fun doing so. Are beginners welcome? Absolutely! Consistent with the name of the store we would love you to Try Running.
When do you run?
We will continue to run on Saturday mornings and subject to demand, we will have at least two other weekly runs probably on Tuesday/Thursday evenings. We will also consider other times if there is sufficient demand.
Where do you run?
While the store will be our base, we will try to run in a variety of locations including IOP beach, new bridge, Palmetto Park, Snee Farm, Park West, IOP Connector etc.
What does it cost to join?
Nothing, Nada, Zip, Zero, like fresh air, it is free!
Why should I become a member?
There will be many benefits associated with joining our Run for Fun Club.
- Best of all you will have some fun getting and/or staying fit.
- You will be able to go to an organized run when you want to.
- You will receive ongoing support, advice, motivation and encouragement.
