The 'bRUNch Club' #trailtherapy runs are regular Thursday morning runs on the trails of the National Forest.
They are a great way to improve your fitness, de-stress and have fun in wonderful surroundings. Distances are around 7-8km (4-5 miles) so are great for anyone who has completed a parkrun and/or couch to 5k programme and are looking to progress to the next level. Being led by our UK Athletics licensed coaches/run leaders, they provide an opportunity for you to pick their brains on all aspects of your training.
For this week's run meet in the car park at Donisthorpe Woodlands Centre (The Pavilion), DE12 7PX.
The runs take around an hour going at a pace that is comfortable for everyone in the group. There are likely to be some moderate hills on most runs and you may encounter some muddy sections.
We cater for all paces but we recommend that, for the running group, you are capable of completing parkrun or the equivalent distance (5km /3 miles) in around 40 mins or less. If you're not quite at that point yet, we've introduced a RIKE group on the Thursday sessions most weeks. This is aimed at those that are newer to running, looking to build confidence or coming back from injury, and will consist of mostly hiking and talking, with short bursts of easy running when the terrain allows.
The regular bRUNch group starts at 9:45am, so please arrive in good time to register and access the facilities. When there is a RIKE group this will leave 15 minutes earlier than the regular bRUNch so that everyone finishes at a similar time ready to socialise afterwards, should you wish to. If you'd like to join the walk-jog group, please arrive in good time for a 9:30am start.
Sessions must be booked and paid for in advance via the website
