Take Your First Steps into Running with Ware Joggers

If you’ve ever thought about starting running but felt unsure or nervous about taking the first step, you’re not alone. The Ware Joggers Beginners Course is designed for people who are new to running, returning after a long break, or simply lacking confidence.

You don’t need to be fit or fast to take part. Many people who join feel exactly the same way at the start.

The Beginners Course

The course runs for 10 weeks and gradually builds you up from short walk–run intervals to around 50 minutes of continuous running. Everything is done at a comfortable pace, with no pressure and no one left behind.

You’ll be supported by an England Athletics–qualified coach, as well as experienced Ware Joggers members who run alongside the group and offer encouragement throughout.

The course is open to anyone aged 16 or over.

Each week includes a simple theme covering common beginner topics such as pacing, confidence, recovery and motivation, to help you feel more comfortable as the course progresses.

What’s included

For many people, the value of the membership and vest alone covers most of the course cost.

What you need
