A FITNESS instructor is hoping to get people running by holding a new nine week training programme starting next month.
Louise Morey will be hosting her Couch to 5K course at Strong Arms Gym and Strong Arms Running Club on the Arden Forest Industrial Estate.
The course, costing £2.50 per session or £2 for gym members, will begin on Thursday, June 4 from 6.30pm.
Ms Morey said: “These courses are a social and fun way to get the people of Alcester and surrounding areas out running.
“It’s not about the pace you set or how quick you get to 5km, it’s about taking up the challenge, being motivated along the way and enjoying the results.
“People are amazed by how quickly they are able to progress from a 60 second run in just a few weeks.
“Yes, it takes determination and commitment but the rewards for your cardiovascular health and general wellbeing are greater.”
