Derby Joggers (part of Jog Derbyshire) offer FREE opportunities for people to walk and jog with a friendly and supportive group in Derby.
Couch to 5k
Couch to 5k 9-week courses are designed for beginners to gradually build up their running ability so they can eventually run 5km without stopping.
The plan involves three runs each week - you can choose to attend one or two group sessions and complete the others independently! The groups are led by Jog Derbyshire leaders, who are also Livewell volunteers and have been through the course themselves. Find out more about the course by reading the Derby Joggers Couch to 5k Information Sheet.
The Thursday group also offer a 5k fun run as a progression route for previous graduates or for those with some jogging experience.
Running trainers are essential to take part.
The next courses will start from 30 April
- Thursday (30 April) at 6pm from outside Springwood Leisure Centre in Oakwood
- Saturday (2 May) at 8am from outside Alvaston Park Community Building
