More information can be found here:
Parkrun
Park runs are free, weekly, community events run all over the world, typically 5km in length. Our local park runs are at Storey’s Field (Eddington), Milton Country Park and Coldham’s Common, you’ll regularly find our members there or being Parkrun tourists in other locations!
Couch to 5k
Couch to 5k running plan designed to get complete beginners from couch potato to running 5km (or 30 minutes) in nine weeks. It’s a great way to start, but you don’t need to be able to run 5km before joining HI Runners!
Running Kit
There isn’t much kit you need for running but a good pair of shoes is important if you are doing a few miles. The following shop offers advice and gait analysis (as well as a club discount):
We have a club discount (normally 10%) for www.sportsshoes.com please contact any committee member for the monthly code (unfortunately the rules state we aren’t able to post on any website).
