The Valley Striders AC Couch to 5K course got off to an excellent start this week. We had 20 people signing up for the course with 15 attending in week 1, and a few more due to join us in week 2. It is already clear that we have a lovely, friendly group of runners with plenty of enthusiasm and commitment. This was demonstrated brilliantly on Thursday, when we had a very impressive turnout despite the downpours!
Throughout the course, our beginners will be supported by run leaders and back markers from Valley Striders. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered to be involved with this, it is much appreciated.
If you would like to support the runners, then please put our Celebration parkrun on Saturday 8 November in your diaries (venue to be confirmed). We would love to have as many Striders’ there as possible!
