New Beginners Running Groups designed to get Thanet more Active!

Jelly Legs Running Club is pleased to announce that it will be running a series of beginners’ groups in the area starting on 26th & 28th April 2011, to train women to participate in the Margate Race for Life event on 24th July 2010. The club nights welcome anybody looking to run themselves to fitness in a social, fun and non-competitive environment. Beginners can expect a ten-week programme, with the aim of reaching a level of fitness that will enable new runners to jog for 30 minutes without stopping. This will be an ideal level to enter for the 3 mile event. Group leaders, Lorraine and Joanne, say of the club nights, “Anyone can join, whatever age, size or ability. The best thing about us is that we don’t put pressure on anybody and never judge anyone by their level of fitness. If we can get a few more women jogging rather than walking then the group will have been a success. “All our members go on to achieve personal targets and goals”, say Lorraine and Joanne, “whether it’s the Race for Life or a Marathon. We all start as individuals that think we can’t do it, but with a bit of training and a lot of laughs along the way we get there in the end.” Jelly Legs provide a welcoming social environment for runners in which ladies and men of all shapes, sizes and fitness levels can participate in running to improve their health and well-being. To join the Jelly Legs beginners’ nights in Ramsgate or Broadstairs areas please call, text or email Lorraine on 07702 850898 or lozalan@btinternet.com for Tuesdays starting on 26th Arpil, or call, text or email Joanne on 07906 466902 or pjod@tesco.net for Thursdays starting 28th April. We are also able to cater for Improver and Intermediate runners with our Margate group on Monday and Wednesday evenings.
