Mixed Ability

Overview

This session enables runners of varying abilities to work to their level of fitness. Due to the nature of the session, we often work within a smaller area, allowing all runners to run without the pressure of keeping up with others or feeling that they are underachieving. The sessions vary each week, with a focus on improving technique. On a rotational basis, we cover agility, balance and coordination with drills one week, hill practice the next and speed variation and endurance the next. A very informal session, where fun is key. Expect to run on grass, pavements, and trails. Please note that some runs may be suitable for children aged 8+ where the Run Leader(s) holds the relevant qualifications and insurance. Please check with the Run Leader(s) directly before attending any runs with under 8s. Qualified Run Leaders are insured to lead training sessions with runners using running buggies, however, please check with your Run Leader directly if you are able to attend with a buggy and that the route is suitable for running with a buggy. Only buggies designed for running may be used and they must be fitted with a five-point safety harness. You will be responsible for your child’s safety, so please be aware of the dangers of running with children in buggies.
