Have you been bitten by the running bug? Looking to explore new running horizons? Keep your running journey going with our Beyond Couch to 5k social runs!

beyond Couch to 5K
Your Running Journey Continues Here in Bulwell! Every Tuesday and Thursday at 7pm.
Maybe you've completed our Couch to 5k programme or you're looking for the motivation and support to broaden your running horizons. Our Beyond Couch to 5k social runs are for you!
You're probably already familiar with our friendly qualified run leaders; it's just this time around you get to set the pace! These sessions are all about exploring what you want to get from running, whether that's catching up with your running buddies, seeing new locations in your local area, working towards a 10k or beyond!
The focus is still on social, inclusive, supported runs that start and end with a good natter with all of your running pals. It's the same price as our Couch to 5k programme at just £2 per session or unlimited sessions in any location with a £15 a month Runspire membership. Just bring yourself, inspire and be inspired at Runspire Bulwell!
Why Beyond Couch to 5k?
It's not just about hitting targets
For some people hitting that initial goal of running a 5k is enough. For others it's about finding the next target to aim for that motivates them. And for some it's much more about a coffee and a scone after a good trot! Our Beyond Couch to 5k social runs are about exploring what you'd like to get out of running and incorporating it into your life.
Maybe it's the social side of our sessions that get you going or you might have this niggling feeling in the back of your mind that you simply need to do more running! Whatever your motivation, lace up your trainers and come and see your mates down at The Ken Martin Leisure Centre. No two running journeys are the same!
