ABC Absolute Beginners Course


Want to get fit and make new friends?

One reason why Hook Runners is such a friendly club is that most of our members originally joined through our Absolute Beginners Course (ABC) and had never really run before or were coming back after an extended break.

This extremely successful course takes people of all standards and levels of fitness from absolute zero to running 3 miles (5km) in around 10-12 weeks and culminates in a graduation Parkrun supported by other members of the club. The next course starts on the 8th of January 2024 and consists of two coached sessions of around 45 minutes each Monday and Wednesday evening at 7 p.m., meeting outside Hook Community Centre, Ravenscroft, with some additional “homework” over the weekend in your own time. The total cost for the entire course is £35.

Hook Runners is a very social and supportive club and in addition to getting fitter and losing weight, those on the ABC make many new friendships along the way with a supportive and encouraging team around them.

The training sessions are led by our fantastic team of qualified coaches, along with other club runners and graduates of the previous 13 ABC courses.
