Jog Skipton

Jog Skipton September 2010

This September sees another round of our JogSkipton sessions. JogSkipton is for adults aged 18+ and is aimed at complete beginners or people who have done a little bit of running or similar exercise before and wish to improve.

We stress that this is running for fitness, health and enjoyment and is not performance training for competitive events. This will be the third time we have organised these sessions and if previous experience is anything to go by, we’ll have some fun.

As in previous years JogSkipton will run (pardon the pun) from Craven Swimming Pool every Tuesday and Thursday at 18.30 for six weeks, commencing on Thursday September 9th with a registration meeting prior to this on Monday 6th September at 18.30 at the pool.

Each session will last approximately 30 minutes in groups according to ability. Everyone 18 or over is welcome, from complete beginners through to those with some running experience. Throughout the six weeks the runs will progress week by week in either distance and/or speed. This will be dictated by the needs of the group. We know that people won’t necessarily be able to make every session so just come along whenever you can.

There is no charge for Jog Skipton we would simply like to give you the chance to enjoy the sport that has given us so much enjoyment and kept us reasonably fit (hmm) over the years as well as making lifelong friendships along the way.

If at the end of the six weeks you would like to continue to run with us we will be delighted to continue to offer support and advice as you integrate with the club training sessions at 19.00 and if you don’t that’s fine too – we just hope you will have enjoyed the experience and will come back next time.

For our 2010 season we have three new jog leaders, Bill, Kath & Hillary who will be joining Chris, Paul and Cath – bringing in some new ideas, training plans and energy but otherwise the format will remain relatively unchanged.

If you want more information then get in touch with Chris Rose on 01756 700818 or email Paul Norman via pdqnorman@googlemail.com

We look forward to running with you in September
