Runner’s Den Run Clinics 2024
We are now accepting 2024 annual memberships for our run clinics! Join us for a year of running for $189.99 starting January 8th. We meet Monday and Wednesday evenings at 5:30pm with our groups streamlined for winter. PLEASE NOTE CHANGE: There will be a Level 1 run group which will start with a 2 minute walk, 1 minute run and progressing along to :30 second walk, 10 min run. The fun and fitness will be focusing on training for the Around the Bay road races and paces are between a 6:30 and 5:40 pace per km. The intermediate/advanced group will combine as one for winter and will be doing hill repeats and tempo runs as the weather allows. This clinic goes until March 20th and if you join for the winter clinic only it is $79.99.
The spring clinic which is incredibly popular will begin on April 1-June 19. This is the perfect time to join if you are a beginner runner as we offer our true beginner program which starts with a :30 second run and a 4:30 walk and progresses to 5 min. run 1 min. walk. Then we have the Level 2 group which starts at 5 min run 1 min. walk and takes you to a 10 & 1 over the 12 week period. Next is fun and fitness which is exactly that! Jodi keeps things fresh with lots of surprises along the way. Jacinda leads the intermediate group which enjoys plenty of trail running and some speed sessions as well as some nice easy runs. Scott & Tracy take the advanced group for some track sessions, tempo runs and intervals mostly on road. This same format is used for the ever popular fall clinic which begins September 9 – November 27th, 2024.
As a group we do various activities and races throughout the year such as a New Year’s Day run, Family day run, the Around the Bay road race in Hamilton, lots of local races plus the guess your time 5km run, global running day celebration run, and many more. We would love to invite you into the Runner’s Den family. Hope to see you in 2024.
P.S. If you aren’t sure about coming out during the week we meet each Saturday morning at the den at 7:30am for open runs. Come give it a try or pop in for a run if you are visiting the area.
